1. The Miz Brand?
That flushing sound you hear is the Miz/Damien Mizdow feud circling the drain. After starting out as the most promising long-term feud in WWE, the Miz and Mizdow battle has been completely ruined by the gross incompetence of the WWE writing staff. Sorry, theres no polite way to say it. This was an easy feud to book: Sandow stands up for himself, reassumes his identity and either fights for his freedom (if hes under contract with the Miz) or battles to put Miz in his place. The end. Rather than build this up and blow it off at WrestleMania, WWE chose to begin the burn at Mania and the duo have spent the past month trading wins. Monday, the feud culminated in Miz and Mizdow fighting over the Miz brand. Seriously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5yBku6MV6g So instead of fighting for his freedom and re-establishing himself as an individual, Mizdow is fighting to keep the Miz identity as his own, to basically appropriate the Mizs personality rather than be himself. Oh, and he got duped by Summer Rae and lost like a geek. So, yay Damian!
