WWE: 10 Most Irritating Wrestling Catchphrases Ever
3. I'm The Miz & I'm Awesome!
If you close your eyes and picture this catchphrase in your head, you'd swear it was a child that made it up. Who else speaks like this? Not once, since the 1990s ended, have you heard anyone refer to themselves as "awesome" in any way other than sarcastic after they mess something up. When you really stop and think about it, "I'm The Miz, and I'm Awesome" does make sense, as Miz has often been portrayed, albeit accidentally at times, like a little kid pretending to be a wrestler. With his constant overacting and terrible facial expressions (duck faces and underbites), you can just picture him holding a hair brush to his face and cutting pretend "promos" on fake opponents in the mirror. It might make sense and, unfortunately, fit his character a bit, but that doesn't make it any less annoying. In fact, it might even make it more annoying, because wrestlers shouldn't be coming across that way in 2014. Not even Rey Mysterio comes across as a child, and he is literally the height of some children. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PEFKq6NxV8 While we're discussing The Miz, though...
