3. Miz Shreds Enzo

Putting aside the tour bus and locker room lines, Miz really destroyed Enzo Amore during his promo after Enzo interrupted his and Maryse’ announcement that she’s pregnant.

After using the backstage antics, Miz brought in the stuff that most people have observed – Enzo’s loudmouth antics, how he went from being part of a popular duo to an outcast, and how he runs his mouth and constantly gets into trouble. Miz’s best line – calling Amore a “con artist with a couple of catchphrases” – was a deep cut, and it showed just how great Miz has become on the microphone.

One has to wonder if WWE would just let Miz run roughshod a little more like he was on SmackDown, could he be a bigger star? Meaning, could he be taken more seriously as a midcard threat instead of getting beat up on Miz TV? He shouldn’t main-event a WrestleMania again, but maybe he could be a little bigger.
