Kevin Owens: The Miz Is The Epitome Of Making Everything Work In Professional Wrestling

Kevin Owens gave credit where credit is due.

From working as a jobber to making his way to the top. The Miz has been a subject of harsh criticism throughout his career, even when he was in the main event of WrestleMania, or winning his second WWE Championship, he has always been less favored by those in the wrestling community.

However, Kevin Owens, who many fans are fans of, decided he was not going to have that slander continue on and gave his flowers to the two-time WWE Grand Slam Champion, who Owens believes fits the epitome of what everyone wants to create inside the ring.

“If there is one guy that doesn’t get enough credit, it’s him. Even me. I’ll fully admit this, and I think I told Mike before. I watched WWE from the outside looking in as an independent wrestler, hoping to get to WWE. I’d see Miz and I’d go, ‘How the fuck is this guy main eventing WrestleMania? How the fuck is this guy always in the top angles?’ I know why once I worked with him once. ‘That’s why.’ We talk about making everything work. He is the epitome of that. He’ll say yes to anything, he’ll make it work, he’ll do it good. He has amazing matches. He had a match with Gunther in Chicago. You look at Gunther and you look at Miz. You look at Gunther and you think, ‘I can’t wait to see him wrestle…’ Miz is probably bottom of the list. They killed it. Killed it. That’s true with almost everyone. Miz can do that with anybody. He does not get enough credit,” Owens said on What Do You Want To Talk About? with Cody Rhodes.

The Miz currently wrestles on the SmackDown brand on the USA Network, where he is currently aligned with Carmelo Hayes, serving as a mentor and a tag team partner for the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner.
