It's a downer that The Miz didn't take part in those 'Mania 36 tapings, and it sucks that WWE hyped a Triple Threat Ladder Match that didn't happen. That's unavoidable. On the plus side, Miz and John Morrison were, like Sam Zayn and Nikki Cross before them, an absolute riot behind the commentary desk.

They trolled everyone watching by filling in for absent fans with chants like, 'Fight Forever' and, 'This Is Awesome' during that New Day vs. The Usos main event. It was bags of fun to see some energy injected into an otherwise-lifeless situation, and it was even better when Kofi Kingston got tired of their antics and attacked.

How very dare he.

It's actually a surprise that more workers haven't taken pops at some of WWE's less-than-friendly fans. All that was missing was an arrogant 'We Are Awesome' singalong from the SmackDown Tag Champs. Perhaps that'll come next after WrestleMania is over and done with.
