The EBWF's Most Interesting Man
Posted: Sun Sep 30, 2012 9:37 am
OOC: Hey Guys, busy week for me, but really happy with how this RP turned out. I'd love to hear some feedback, best of luck to everyone in this match, should be epic. -DJ
Interesting. That's the only real word to describe not only the return of The Miz, and the events that followed it, but also the entire EBWF World Heavyweight Championship picture. You see Mike Mizanin AKA The Miz returned to action just 2 months ago, but he wasted little time getting back into peoples minds. His first move, included him appearing to pull a fast one on all the fans, joining with Paul Heyman's Coalition and earning the EBWF Intercontinental Championship in the process. It was the type of move that one would come to expect from The Miz, what happened next, however, was not as predictable. On the night of a battle royal to decide the next participant in the Elimination Chamber, The Miz appeared to not be interested. He seemed miffed that he had to compete for his spot, and felt as though he should have been included in the match from the get go. This led to tension between The Miz, and the man who claimed he could bring Miz right back to the top, Paul Heyman. Just when the EBWF was about to write Miz' participation in the battle royal off, The Miz showed up, and ended up as one of the final two men in the match alongside fellow Coalition member Ken Anderson, this is when the tension came to a head. Paul Heyman entered the ring and tried to screw Miz out of his chance to regain the EBWF Title for a second time. He failed. Miz ducked Heyman's chair shot, and went on to win the match. He then planted Paul Heyman on his face with a much deserved Skull Crushing Finale. Suddenly, the fans and The Miz had a common enemy, which caused all the Mizfits who may have been hiding their affinity for the universally hated former World Champion, to emerge from the woodwork. Speaking of the World Title, going into this month it was held by Cody Rhodes, but then he.. well.. he left. So it was now vacant and would be up for grabs at Destiny in an Elimination Chamber that would feature the six best superstars in the game today, Miz was one of them. It was indeed a new chapter for him, he was the Intercontinental Champion, the fans were loving him, and on Sunday he'd have a chance to once again become the World Champion, it certainly won't be easy.. but try telling him that.. now THAT would be.. well.. interesting.
The scene opened up in an EBWF Studio where Todd Grisham and Jonathan Coachman sat with a backdrop that was focused 100 percent on Destiny. There were big pictures up of all the members of the card, and they surrounded the biggest picture of all and that was of the Elimination Chamber and the six men that would inhabit it this Sunday at Destiny. Todd Grisham wore a grey suit, while "The Coach" donned a black dress coat, and black jeans. Grisham neatened up a stack of papers on his desk by touching them to the table and Coachman adjusted himself in his chair. Todd began to speak.
Todd Grisham: Welcome back ladies and gentleman to EBWF TV, I'm Todd Grisham, alongside "The Coach" Jonathan Coachman, as we continue to count down the days until Destiny.. and one has to wonder who's "Destiny" it will indeed be, this Sunday, to walk out victorious in the always daunting, the always barbaric Elimination Chamber.
Jonathan Coachman: That's right six of the companies biggest stars will collide inside the chamber, with the winner walking out with the currently vacant EBWF World Heavyweight Championship, I for one, can't wait partner.
Todd Grisham: One of those stars, The Miz, was on the cover of this months EBWF Magazine.
The Magazine was shown with The Miz front and center on the cover, rocking the Intercontinental Championship on his right shoulder. He was pointing to his black with red letters, T-Shirt that read "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" he had a very cocky grin on his face. The heading read The Miz: EBWF's Most Interesting Man.
Todd Grisham: It quite certainly has been a roller coaster of a month for the EBWF Intercontinental Champion. EBWF's own Michael Cole caught up with "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" for an exclusive interview for this months magazine, take a look.
The scene faded away from the studio and cut into scenes of Mizzes cover shoot for EBWF Magazine. There was some generic up beat music playing, and the montage showed Miz posing for pictures, as well as a couple of lighter moments, in between shooting with Miz laughing and joking with the photographers. Miz was then seen looking at some of the shots and yelling out "that's a beautiful man right there!" The scene then cut away from this montage and cut into a sit down interview between Michael Cole who wore a dark grey suit that was buttoned up all the way to not show the undershirt that we could view from his neck that it was a black. The Miz wore a white with blue letters "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" T Shirt, blue fitted jeans, and white and blue Nike tennis shoes. He also had the Intercontinental Championship draped over his left shoulder.
Michael Cole: So I'm sitting here today with EBWF Intercontinental Champion, The Most Must See, The Greatest of the Great, Cream of the Crop, Your Favorite Wrestl..
The Miz smirked.
The Miz: Stop.. stop... OK keep going keep going.
Michael Cole smiled, seemingly very encouraged by Mizzes approval.
Michael Cole: Wrestler's favorite Wrestler, THE MIZ! Miz how are you doing?
The Miz sat back in his chair and put his hands on his head.
The Miz: I'm The Miz Michael, how do you think I'm doing?
Michael seemed embarrassed for even having to ask.
Michael Cole: Right of course. So you are on the cover of this months EBWF Magazine, and it's labeled The Miz: EBWF's Most Interesting Man. Tell us, what makes you so interesting?
The Miz thought for a second, and instead of insulting the question like one may have expected, Miz answered it.
The Miz: Basically Michael, I'm The Most Interesting Man, not only in the EBWF, but in the world. EBWF Superstars and that Dos Equis guy alike, have NOTHING on me. What makes me interesting and why people are so captivated by The Miz is because they see the greatness that I possess and they recognize it. Whether you are a Mizfit or a Miztake, you can't help but notice the fact that I excel at everything I do. There's top notch Michael, and then two notches above that, is me. Whether I'm talking, whether I'm wrestling, whether I'm modeling.
Miz held up the magazine, and flashed a trade mark cocky grin.
The Miz: I'm great at it, and people can't deny the fact that they are intrigued by someone who's a true master of all of his crafts. Getting even MORE specific Michael, this Sunday, if you can believe it, I will become even MORE interesting than I already am, because this Sunday at Destiny I'm walking in the Intercontinental Champion, but after I get done bulldozing my way through the competition in the Elimination Chamber, I will be walking out not just with this title, but also with the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship. Fact.
Michael Cole: Oh I don't doubt that Miz, it's good to have you back buddy. I didn't really like The Miz that joined with Paul Heyman.
The Miz: Well that's because I kicked your ass Michael, but you deserved it being all whiny like you were.
Michael nodded.
Michael Cole: You're right, I'm sorry.
The Miz: Of course I'm right, I'm always right.. about everything.
Michael furiously nodded.. what a tool.
Michael Cole: Agreed. It was an honor getting my ass kicked by you. To show my support, I even wore this T-Shirt.
Michael opened his suit coat to reveal one of Mizzes "Your Favorite Wrestler's Favorite Wrestler" T-Shirts. Miz smiled.
The Miz: Would you look at that. Normally I'd be kind of put off by you rocking Miz gear, because you're.. well you.. but it's just such a sharp t-shirt. Arguably the best T-Shirt ever, actually not arguably.. it is the best t-shirt ever. I'm also actually glad you brought me kicking the crap out of you a couple months ago up, Michael. I've been meaning to apologize to you for that, and to show just how sorry I am, I even had this made up.
Miz went to a bag that was sitting by his chair. He went into the bag and pulled out a black with red letters t shirt with the same design as the one Cole currently had on, except this particular shirt read "Your favorite Commentator's, Favorite Commentator." Michael's eye's lit up like a kid on Christmas Morning. As he reached for his t shirt. Miz smiled.
The Miz: For those of you that can't read, the shirt says "Your favorite Commentator's, Favorite Commentator" and to show how apologetic I am for beating you up Michael, I'm giving you the honor of giving this shirt... to Jim Ross.
Michael's face dropped and Miz smiled jokingly slapping Cole on the arm.
The Miz: Relax! I'm just messing with you, here you go Cole.
Michael began to take his current shirt off. Miz put his hand out.
The Miz: Hey Michael, wear it later huh? For all of us, please.
Cole looked embarrassed, he wasn't in the best of shape and that was what Miz was referring to. Cole nodded and put the T Shirt by his side.
Michael Cole: Well thank you very much for the t-shirt Miz, by far the best gift I've ever gotten.
The Miz: Well we can just add gift giver to that very long long list of things I'm amazing at.
Michael Cole: Without question. Anyways we got a little bit off track, let's get back to the interview for the magazine, shall we?
The Miz nodded.
The Miz: We shall.
Michael Cole: So you touched on the fact earlier, that you would be competing in an Elimination Chamber match for the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship, as you look to become one of only a few men who have EVER held BOTH the EBWF Title and the EBWF Intercontinental Title at the same time. What are your thoughts on both the match and it's participants, as well as that possibility of belonging to such a small prestigious group, should you be victorious on Sunday.
The Miz again flashed a laid back, care free, smirk.
The Miz: First of all Michael there is no "should I be victorious" let's get that straight right away. There's no "possibility" that I will belong to that group, it's a certainty, I WILL be victorious Sunday, Michael. It's a no doubter, 100 percent guarantee that I will hold the two top prizes in the game when the dust settles at Destiny.. and why shouldn't I? Honestly I think I should hold all the titles. I mean why not? I'm better than every current title holder, and that's the understatement of the century. Why shouldn't someone who is just THAT MUCH better than every other person that laces up their boots for a living, hold every piece of gold in this company? I can't come up with any reason, but anyways this match on Sunday, what's there to say? I mean just look at the guys I'm facing. Who's going to stop me? Trent Barreta, really? Trent Barreta is going to be the guy that keeps me from winning the EBWF Title this weekend, REALLY?! Is he, what's making you question whether or not I will win Sunday?
Cole backtracked.
Michael Cole: I never question...
The Miz: Save it Michael, the field that I'm going up against is laughable at best, and Trent is perhaps the biggest joke of the bunch. Here's a guy that I didn't even know existed until he tweeted about what a big fan of mine he was. It was like when a popular kid is reading his yearbook at the end of the school year, and he gets to a really nice inscription signed by a name he doesn't recognize. So he has to go back in to the picture section and see which kid wrote him the nice note.
Michael Cole looked dazed as if he was recalling something.
Michael Cole: I remember those days.
The Miz stared at Michael blankly.
Michael Cole: What? I was popular!
The Miz continued to blank stare Cole.
Michael Cole: Oh leave me alone!
The Miz: Anyways, that's exactly what happened with Trent for me, I saw that tweet, and I was like Trent Barreta.. Trent Barreta.. who the hell is Trent Barreta? So I went onto EBWF.net and saw what he looked like, and then I was like OHHHH YEAH the guy who always asks me if I want his last piece of chicken, the chicken guy, that's who Trent Barreta is. The guy who's always got his nose in a gameboy, the guy that doesn't seem to realize that he's not 10 years old. I swear I heard Trent ask someone in the back if they wanted to "Play" Power Rangers. I almost feel sorry for him that he's in this match, because this match is clearly too big for him to handle not only physically, but mentally. To prepare to compete in a match like this, you have to have a game plan, you have to have a plan of attack, your brain can't be clogged with secret Nintendo passwords, or how to beat Bowser, you need to be dialed in 100 percent of the way, or you're not only going to lose, but you're going to lose badly. Trent Barreta, has found himself in the wrong fight. He has found himself in a match where he is going to be locked in a chamber with 5 Tigers fighting over the piece of steak that the EBWF Title may as well be at this point, all Trent Barreta should be worried about is getting out of the match alive so he can go home and see his Atari again, winning should be the farthest thing from his mind, just like the possibility of him winning is the farthest thing from mine. To be fair though Trent does have just as much of a chance to win this match as any of the other competitors who aren't me... none.
Michael smiled. He then got serious again quickly.
Michael Cole: Barreta obviously a long time Breakout Champion and currently is one half of the EBWF Tag Team Champions alongside Zack Ryder.. but you're right he's never been in a match of this magnitude with such stiff competition, aside from he and Daniel Bryan everyone in this match has held the EBWF Title. Speak a little about facing multiple opponents with, not unlike yourself, impressive resumes.
The Miz: Michael, everyday people apply for jobs all over the world. There are a million "impressive resumes" sent out to companies on a daily basis. The people that get those jobs though Michael, are the people that not only have an impressive resume, but they are also the people that have that something extra to set them apart from the rest of the stack. They are the people who JUMP off the page, and that's me Michael. Nobody jumps off the page in this business, quite like The Miz. Sure CM Punk, AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, they've all had nice careers, they've won some matches, held some titles and on paper they look impressive, but those impressive resume's may as well go right into a stack, and then that stack may as well be put right in the trash, because all of that is going to be worth nothing on Sunday. No resume in the world is going to get you a job or in this case a title when you are going up against someone like me. All the accomplishments that you are alluding to with these other guys Michael are things of the past. The only thing that truly matters is the here and now, and that is something a guy like CM Punk, for instance, seems to forget about constantly.
Michael Cole: How do you mean?
The Miz: What do you mean, how do I mean? You've heard him, the guy does nothing these days but rehash every match he's ever won, and then he yells out that he's the "Best in the World" He may be the best in the world at over hyping victories that nobody actually cares about. Like the whole thing with John Cena, sure it was interesting to see how crazy John was at first, but after awhile I honestly didn't care if they killed each other, literally, so long as I didn't have to hear another word from either of them, and I know for a fact that I'm not alone on that. Come to think of it, that's basically what CM Punk's career has become. A bunch of wins and matches that nobody cares about except for him. The guy is pathetic, last Monday he even bragged about winning a slammy, who does that?
Miz stopped and looked right at Michael Cole, who was guilty of the same thing once upon a time, in a place far far away (The WWE)
The Miz: The point is, much like Chris Jericho, it's kind of sad to see CM Punk still trying to convince us that he matters. They tried to make him vs. Cena into this big thing, but that match came and went, and then they hyped Punk getting a one on one match for the title against Cody Rhodes because he won King of the Ring, he faced Cody.. didn't win.. and now it just feels like everything he says is basically a "hey remember me? I'm still here!" Kind of plea. Punk and Jericho need to go somewhere and watch DVD's from 5 years ago, because that's the closest either of them are going to get to the glory days, ever again. CM Punk will never be the best in this World, as long as I'm around. He may be a 3 time world Champion but I will personally see to it that he won't ever be a 4 time champ. Because much like this Intercontinental Championship, once I get my hands on that piece of gold Sunday, it's not going anywhere. My opponents might not be happy about that, but unfortunately for them they'll have no other alternative but to sit back, watch, and BE JEALOUS.
Michael nodded and pumped his fist like a proud father.
Michael Cole: Yes! So true, well said Miz! You mention Chris Jericho. Last month you defeated him to retain the Intercontinental Title, as well as your right to compete for the EBWF Title. However, the match was controversial to say the least as Wes Ikeda earned a huge assist in your victory. Your thoughts on Jericho?
The Miz let out a small chuckle.
The Miz: So what are you saying Michael that I would have lost if it wasn't for Wes Ikeda?
Michael Cole: No Miz I'm just..
The Miz mocked him.
The Miz: I just, I just, listen Michael the fact of the matter is, Wes Ikeda doesn't like Chris Jericho, so he saw to it that he didn't defeat me last month. If he didn't, you know who would have saw to it that Chris Jericho didn't win last month? Me. Wes doesn't like Chris, and who would, or could? Chris Jericho, with regards to this match is a minor footnote. Chris Jericho is the old guy at the park trying to play pick up basketball with the young kids and getting injured within the first 30 seconds of the game. Except he's worse, because that old guy would probably say "hey my time has officially passed, I can't run with these kids like I used to." He'd then pick up his bag and go home, whereas Chris Jericho is the old guy that would refuse a sub and limp his way through the game and ruin everyone else's time. Not because he's tough and can compete through pain, but instead because his ego is SO big he can't accept the fact that his days are over, he refuses to admit that the business has passed him by, and that it's time to pass the torch to the younger, more talented superstars.. like oh I don't know.. off the top of my head I can think of... say... me. Chris Jericho is the Brett Favre of the EBWF, he should have retired 5 years ago but just won't go away. It's gotten to the point where I'd rather listen to Fozzy then watch Chris Jericho wrestle, and that's saying something but Fozzy is one of the first bands I've ever...
Miz mocked Jericho.
The Miz: EEVVVVVVEEEEER heard in my entire life. It's bad enough that Chris Jericho is washed up in the ring, and still wrestling, but he's still making music and he was NEVER good at that in the first place. He's a has been wrestler and a never was musician, yet he just WON'T stop doing either. Old Chris Jericho is a stain on professional wrestling, any age Chris Jericho is and has always been a stain on the music industry, and any age Chris Jericho is just a stain on planet earth.. and since this stain.. this disgrace of a human being refuses to leave the public eye willingly, I will need to issue him a beating that will force his hand, so that FINALLY we won't have to see Chris Jericho competing in a wrestling ring or performing on a stage with his horrid band EVER.. AGAYNE. Once again world, YOU'RE WELCOME.
Michael smiled.
Michael Cole: The Miz, always making the world a better place.
The Miz smirked.
The Miz: 24/7 365.
Michael Cole: Now Miz what about a guy like Daniel Bryan? He's a member of Paul Heyman's Coalition, and considered by many as a Dark Horse in this match. What are your thoughts on him.
The Miz rolled his eyes, not impressed with the mention of his former stable mate.
The Miz: Dark horse? Maybe the horse that gets taken out back and shot, but certainly not a horse that could have a snowballs chance in hell of winning. Daniel Bryan has spent the last 2 months carrying my bags, clearing my lunch tray for me, entertaining the ugly girls at the bar while I talked to their good looking friends. Daniel Bryan is a gopher who looks like a goat who has the personality of a snail. Mark that down Cole that's 3 different animal references in one sentence.
Michael Cole: You are amazing.
The Miz: Obviously. Anyways, who does Paul Heyman think he's fooling? I leave the Coalition now all of a sudden Daniel Bryan is their go to guy? He's the guy that's going to lead the Coalition into power, or even on a smaller scale, relevance? They may answer that question, YES YES YES, but I'm saying NO.. NO.. NO. Daniel Bryan couldn't lead starving kids in Africa to an all you can eat buffet. Daniel Bryan is no leader, he should consider himself lucky that I let him stand in the same ring as me for the past 2 months. He should consider himself lucky, that I have wasted my breath to speak words to him over the past 2 months, and on Sunday he should consider himself lucky if he even has a pathetic wrestling career to continue when the match is over.
Michael Cole: Yes Miz but Daniel Bryan before coming here has made quite a name for himself in other promotions.
The Miz laughed.
The Miz: Daniel Bryan is Colt Cabana with a stupider beard, just a name that people build up into something they aren't. These types of guys succeed in smaller companies where for once they get to be a big fish in a small pond, but that is EXACTLY where Daniel Bryan should have stayed. He has no business being anywhere near a main event in a company like EBWF, he has no business being mentioned in the same sentence as someone like me, let alone being in the same match. Between his dull personality and the snooze fest that he is in the ring, Daniel Bryan would be better utilized performing at local high school gymnasiums where admission is 3 dollars. Paul Heyman may think that Sunday Night will be the real beginning of the Coalition's reign, but I will show him that the second I left their little rag tag group, was the second The Coalition lost ANY chance of doing ANYTHING but fading off into obscurity. The good news for Daniel Bryan is that, much like he has for the past 2 months, he will have a front row seat to watch ME continue to prove each and every day that I'm on a level that NOBODY in this company will ever reach, that I am truly the best of the best, the cream of the crop, your favorite wrestler's favorite wrestler, and Daniel, Paul Heyman, and the rest of that band of losers will have no choice but to watch their former leader be once again crowned the EBWF World Heavyweight Champion.
Michael nodded.
Michael Cole: Well I hope that happens..
Miz looked annoyed and sat up in his chair, that Michael said "hope" Cole caught on to this quickly.
Michael Cole: And I know it will!
Miz appeared pleased with the correction and sat back in his chair comfortably once again.
Michael Cole: Which brings us to the final man in this Elimination Chamber Match. A man who you know very very well, as a friend, an enemy, and everything else in between. The man who out of anyone else in this match has held the World Title most recently, I'm of course referring to AJ Styles.
The Miz smirked and sat up in his chair once again to offer a statement in response to Cole.
The Miz: What about him?
Michael Cole: Well I guess I'm saying what are your thoughts with regards to his chances in the match?
The Miz rolled his eyes, seeming baffled by this question.
The Miz: Michael, have you even been listening to a word I'm saying? What do I think of AJ's chances to win this match? I think.. no I KNOW.. that he has NO chance to win this match, because as I've already told you and the whole world, I AM GOING TO WIN THIS MATCH. AJ Styles may have been the man to take the EBWF Title off me the first time back at Wrestlemania, but he's ALSO the man that is personally responsible for me not having it right now, because if it wasn't for AJ getting pinned back at Sacrifice I would have found a way to win, because finding away to win is what I do. This is ALSO the same AJ that I had to save from getting demolished by Cody and Ted a couple months back on Warfare gift wrapping that victory for him, and as far as lately goes, we've barely even seen the guy on TV since then. I'm not sure what he's been up to, maybe settling his 9th divorce, relapsing, laying around playing X-Box with Trent Barreta, whatever it is he does. Meanwhile I've been back two months, and nobody has made more noise in that time than I have. While all my opponents have been either not here, or losing, I've been in the public eye winning titles, outsmarting people, basically being all that is Miz, which in other words is being all that is awesome.
Michael Cole: You are so right Mi..
Miz put his hand up.
The Miz: I'm not done, so when you ask me about AJ Styles my response is simple. AJ Styles, finally had his moment in the Sun. He got to carry around MY belt for a few months, good for him, la dee da, and I'd argue that there wasn't ever a worse time in the EBWF than the time he was champion. The EBWF Title basically took a backseat to Chris Jericho vs. Wes Ikeda or CM Punk vs. John Cena, it became an afterthought, and that is because the man who held the title..
Miz whispered.
The Miz: AJ.
Normal voice.
The Miz: SHOULD be nothing but an afterthought. AJ Styles as the champion was like trying to fit a square into the circle space on one of those toys that teach kids about shapes. It just wasn't right, it just didn't fit. Nothing about AJ Styles says top dog. Nothing about AJ Styles points to the fact that he should be looked at as anything but a C list superstar in this business. He's a screw up outside the ring, and he's overrated inside of it. So he can flip around, so do gymnasts, and you don't see Nastia Lukin trying to beat me inside an Elimination Chamber, do you Michael?
Michael Cole: No Miz, you could totally take her.
The Miz stared at Michael blankly again.
The Miz: I know I could take her, I could take anyone, I'm The Miz for god sakes.. but what I'm getting at is just because AJ can do a back handspring or whatever he does, doesn't make him worthy of being in the upper echelon of this company. I will give him that my win loss record against him, is the worst for me against any other superstar in the business, I will give him that whether it was my fault or not, our matches have not always gone the way I wanted them to, but the fact of the matter is this Michael.. that was then. That was when I was too preoccupied and too paranoid, that was MY mistake in my first go around as the champion. This though Michael.. is now.. I'm the best Miz that I've ever been, which is saying QUITE A BIT, but I'm a Miz that isn't leaning on anyone but myself, because what I've realized is that's ALL I'VE EVER NEEDED, I'm a Miz that when I become champion again on Sunday, will not be paranoid or preoccupied, but instead be 100 percent focused on being the best EBWF Champion and the best EBWF Intercontinental Champion, this company has ever seen.. and oh yeah.. I'll do it at the same time. A tall task for an ordinary man, but as you know Michael I'm not just any man. The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is of course..
Michael seemed excited because he thought he knew the answer.
Michael Cole: That little "extra."
The Miz shook his head, and responded blankly.
The Miz: No.. the difference between ordinary and extraordinary.. is The Miz. If you think you're extraordinary or you think you're
Miz mocked AJ.
The Miz: PHENOMENAL.. and you aren't me.. well then you are sadly mistaken. I am the face of professional wrestling, but more than that I AM PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING. The fans may clap for AJ Styles because of his little circus tricks, but they clap for me, and my Mizfits are behind me, because they know that though I may be arrogant or cocky, that what I'm saying to them is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. What you see and hear with me is what you get. When I say I'm the greatest there is in this business, it's because I am. When I say that I'm unstoppable, it's because I am.. and when I say that I'm going to win this match on Sunday, it's because I AM, and there's not a damn thing AJ Styles nor anyone else in this match for that matter can do about it.
Michael Cole: So true! So is there anything else you want the world to know from EBWF's most interesting man?
The Miz: As always Michael, I want to let them know what they can expect. They can expect a bunch of superstars doing their best to entertain at Destiny, and then they can expect to see the superest of stars, blow everyone else out of the water, as soon as I enter the ring. The last time I was in an elimination chamber match, it was at Fallout, and just like I will on Sunday I won and left the EBWF Champion. This Sunday, 5 of the pods, will contain superstars that will hope and wish for a victory, and a 6th pod that will contain a superstar that will MAKE IT HAPPEN. I am the EBWF's most interesting man and Michael.. I don't always enter Elimination Chambers.. but when I do.. I walk out with the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship around my waist. Because I'm The Miz.. and I'M.
The Miz looked right at Michael Cole and spoke his last word softly, but packed with emotion.
The Miz: Awesome.
The Miz took his microphone off, and walked out of the room. The scene cut to a couple more shots of his cover shoot, and then faded back into the studio where Coach and Grisham continued previewing Destiny.
Interesting. That's the only real word to describe not only the return of The Miz, and the events that followed it, but also the entire EBWF World Heavyweight Championship picture. You see Mike Mizanin AKA The Miz returned to action just 2 months ago, but he wasted little time getting back into peoples minds. His first move, included him appearing to pull a fast one on all the fans, joining with Paul Heyman's Coalition and earning the EBWF Intercontinental Championship in the process. It was the type of move that one would come to expect from The Miz, what happened next, however, was not as predictable. On the night of a battle royal to decide the next participant in the Elimination Chamber, The Miz appeared to not be interested. He seemed miffed that he had to compete for his spot, and felt as though he should have been included in the match from the get go. This led to tension between The Miz, and the man who claimed he could bring Miz right back to the top, Paul Heyman. Just when the EBWF was about to write Miz' participation in the battle royal off, The Miz showed up, and ended up as one of the final two men in the match alongside fellow Coalition member Ken Anderson, this is when the tension came to a head. Paul Heyman entered the ring and tried to screw Miz out of his chance to regain the EBWF Title for a second time. He failed. Miz ducked Heyman's chair shot, and went on to win the match. He then planted Paul Heyman on his face with a much deserved Skull Crushing Finale. Suddenly, the fans and The Miz had a common enemy, which caused all the Mizfits who may have been hiding their affinity for the universally hated former World Champion, to emerge from the woodwork. Speaking of the World Title, going into this month it was held by Cody Rhodes, but then he.. well.. he left. So it was now vacant and would be up for grabs at Destiny in an Elimination Chamber that would feature the six best superstars in the game today, Miz was one of them. It was indeed a new chapter for him, he was the Intercontinental Champion, the fans were loving him, and on Sunday he'd have a chance to once again become the World Champion, it certainly won't be easy.. but try telling him that.. now THAT would be.. well.. interesting.
The scene opened up in an EBWF Studio where Todd Grisham and Jonathan Coachman sat with a backdrop that was focused 100 percent on Destiny. There were big pictures up of all the members of the card, and they surrounded the biggest picture of all and that was of the Elimination Chamber and the six men that would inhabit it this Sunday at Destiny. Todd Grisham wore a grey suit, while "The Coach" donned a black dress coat, and black jeans. Grisham neatened up a stack of papers on his desk by touching them to the table and Coachman adjusted himself in his chair. Todd began to speak.
Todd Grisham: Welcome back ladies and gentleman to EBWF TV, I'm Todd Grisham, alongside "The Coach" Jonathan Coachman, as we continue to count down the days until Destiny.. and one has to wonder who's "Destiny" it will indeed be, this Sunday, to walk out victorious in the always daunting, the always barbaric Elimination Chamber.
Jonathan Coachman: That's right six of the companies biggest stars will collide inside the chamber, with the winner walking out with the currently vacant EBWF World Heavyweight Championship, I for one, can't wait partner.
Todd Grisham: One of those stars, The Miz, was on the cover of this months EBWF Magazine.
The Magazine was shown with The Miz front and center on the cover, rocking the Intercontinental Championship on his right shoulder. He was pointing to his black with red letters, T-Shirt that read "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" he had a very cocky grin on his face. The heading read The Miz: EBWF's Most Interesting Man.
Todd Grisham: It quite certainly has been a roller coaster of a month for the EBWF Intercontinental Champion. EBWF's own Michael Cole caught up with "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" for an exclusive interview for this months magazine, take a look.
The scene faded away from the studio and cut into scenes of Mizzes cover shoot for EBWF Magazine. There was some generic up beat music playing, and the montage showed Miz posing for pictures, as well as a couple of lighter moments, in between shooting with Miz laughing and joking with the photographers. Miz was then seen looking at some of the shots and yelling out "that's a beautiful man right there!" The scene then cut away from this montage and cut into a sit down interview between Michael Cole who wore a dark grey suit that was buttoned up all the way to not show the undershirt that we could view from his neck that it was a black. The Miz wore a white with blue letters "Your Favorite Wrestler's, Favorite Wrestler" T Shirt, blue fitted jeans, and white and blue Nike tennis shoes. He also had the Intercontinental Championship draped over his left shoulder.
Michael Cole: So I'm sitting here today with EBWF Intercontinental Champion, The Most Must See, The Greatest of the Great, Cream of the Crop, Your Favorite Wrestl..
The Miz smirked.
The Miz: Stop.. stop... OK keep going keep going.
Michael Cole smiled, seemingly very encouraged by Mizzes approval.
Michael Cole: Wrestler's favorite Wrestler, THE MIZ! Miz how are you doing?
The Miz sat back in his chair and put his hands on his head.
The Miz: I'm The Miz Michael, how do you think I'm doing?
Michael seemed embarrassed for even having to ask.
Michael Cole: Right of course. So you are on the cover of this months EBWF Magazine, and it's labeled The Miz: EBWF's Most Interesting Man. Tell us, what makes you so interesting?
The Miz thought for a second, and instead of insulting the question like one may have expected, Miz answered it.
The Miz: Basically Michael, I'm The Most Interesting Man, not only in the EBWF, but in the world. EBWF Superstars and that Dos Equis guy alike, have NOTHING on me. What makes me interesting and why people are so captivated by The Miz is because they see the greatness that I possess and they recognize it. Whether you are a Mizfit or a Miztake, you can't help but notice the fact that I excel at everything I do. There's top notch Michael, and then two notches above that, is me. Whether I'm talking, whether I'm wrestling, whether I'm modeling.
Miz held up the magazine, and flashed a trade mark cocky grin.
The Miz: I'm great at it, and people can't deny the fact that they are intrigued by someone who's a true master of all of his crafts. Getting even MORE specific Michael, this Sunday, if you can believe it, I will become even MORE interesting than I already am, because this Sunday at Destiny I'm walking in the Intercontinental Champion, but after I get done bulldozing my way through the competition in the Elimination Chamber, I will be walking out not just with this title, but also with the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship. Fact.
Michael Cole: Oh I don't doubt that Miz, it's good to have you back buddy. I didn't really like The Miz that joined with Paul Heyman.
The Miz: Well that's because I kicked your ass Michael, but you deserved it being all whiny like you were.
Michael nodded.
Michael Cole: You're right, I'm sorry.
The Miz: Of course I'm right, I'm always right.. about everything.
Michael furiously nodded.. what a tool.
Michael Cole: Agreed. It was an honor getting my ass kicked by you. To show my support, I even wore this T-Shirt.
Michael opened his suit coat to reveal one of Mizzes "Your Favorite Wrestler's Favorite Wrestler" T-Shirts. Miz smiled.
The Miz: Would you look at that. Normally I'd be kind of put off by you rocking Miz gear, because you're.. well you.. but it's just such a sharp t-shirt. Arguably the best T-Shirt ever, actually not arguably.. it is the best t-shirt ever. I'm also actually glad you brought me kicking the crap out of you a couple months ago up, Michael. I've been meaning to apologize to you for that, and to show just how sorry I am, I even had this made up.
Miz went to a bag that was sitting by his chair. He went into the bag and pulled out a black with red letters t shirt with the same design as the one Cole currently had on, except this particular shirt read "Your favorite Commentator's, Favorite Commentator." Michael's eye's lit up like a kid on Christmas Morning. As he reached for his t shirt. Miz smiled.
The Miz: For those of you that can't read, the shirt says "Your favorite Commentator's, Favorite Commentator" and to show how apologetic I am for beating you up Michael, I'm giving you the honor of giving this shirt... to Jim Ross.
Michael's face dropped and Miz smiled jokingly slapping Cole on the arm.
The Miz: Relax! I'm just messing with you, here you go Cole.
Michael began to take his current shirt off. Miz put his hand out.
The Miz: Hey Michael, wear it later huh? For all of us, please.
Cole looked embarrassed, he wasn't in the best of shape and that was what Miz was referring to. Cole nodded and put the T Shirt by his side.
Michael Cole: Well thank you very much for the t-shirt Miz, by far the best gift I've ever gotten.
The Miz: Well we can just add gift giver to that very long long list of things I'm amazing at.
Michael Cole: Without question. Anyways we got a little bit off track, let's get back to the interview for the magazine, shall we?
The Miz nodded.
The Miz: We shall.
Michael Cole: So you touched on the fact earlier, that you would be competing in an Elimination Chamber match for the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship, as you look to become one of only a few men who have EVER held BOTH the EBWF Title and the EBWF Intercontinental Title at the same time. What are your thoughts on both the match and it's participants, as well as that possibility of belonging to such a small prestigious group, should you be victorious on Sunday.
The Miz again flashed a laid back, care free, smirk.
The Miz: First of all Michael there is no "should I be victorious" let's get that straight right away. There's no "possibility" that I will belong to that group, it's a certainty, I WILL be victorious Sunday, Michael. It's a no doubter, 100 percent guarantee that I will hold the two top prizes in the game when the dust settles at Destiny.. and why shouldn't I? Honestly I think I should hold all the titles. I mean why not? I'm better than every current title holder, and that's the understatement of the century. Why shouldn't someone who is just THAT MUCH better than every other person that laces up their boots for a living, hold every piece of gold in this company? I can't come up with any reason, but anyways this match on Sunday, what's there to say? I mean just look at the guys I'm facing. Who's going to stop me? Trent Barreta, really? Trent Barreta is going to be the guy that keeps me from winning the EBWF Title this weekend, REALLY?! Is he, what's making you question whether or not I will win Sunday?
Cole backtracked.
Michael Cole: I never question...
The Miz: Save it Michael, the field that I'm going up against is laughable at best, and Trent is perhaps the biggest joke of the bunch. Here's a guy that I didn't even know existed until he tweeted about what a big fan of mine he was. It was like when a popular kid is reading his yearbook at the end of the school year, and he gets to a really nice inscription signed by a name he doesn't recognize. So he has to go back in to the picture section and see which kid wrote him the nice note.
Michael Cole looked dazed as if he was recalling something.
Michael Cole: I remember those days.
The Miz stared at Michael blankly.
Michael Cole: What? I was popular!
The Miz continued to blank stare Cole.
Michael Cole: Oh leave me alone!
The Miz: Anyways, that's exactly what happened with Trent for me, I saw that tweet, and I was like Trent Barreta.. Trent Barreta.. who the hell is Trent Barreta? So I went onto EBWF.net and saw what he looked like, and then I was like OHHHH YEAH the guy who always asks me if I want his last piece of chicken, the chicken guy, that's who Trent Barreta is. The guy who's always got his nose in a gameboy, the guy that doesn't seem to realize that he's not 10 years old. I swear I heard Trent ask someone in the back if they wanted to "Play" Power Rangers. I almost feel sorry for him that he's in this match, because this match is clearly too big for him to handle not only physically, but mentally. To prepare to compete in a match like this, you have to have a game plan, you have to have a plan of attack, your brain can't be clogged with secret Nintendo passwords, or how to beat Bowser, you need to be dialed in 100 percent of the way, or you're not only going to lose, but you're going to lose badly. Trent Barreta, has found himself in the wrong fight. He has found himself in a match where he is going to be locked in a chamber with 5 Tigers fighting over the piece of steak that the EBWF Title may as well be at this point, all Trent Barreta should be worried about is getting out of the match alive so he can go home and see his Atari again, winning should be the farthest thing from his mind, just like the possibility of him winning is the farthest thing from mine. To be fair though Trent does have just as much of a chance to win this match as any of the other competitors who aren't me... none.
Michael smiled. He then got serious again quickly.
Michael Cole: Barreta obviously a long time Breakout Champion and currently is one half of the EBWF Tag Team Champions alongside Zack Ryder.. but you're right he's never been in a match of this magnitude with such stiff competition, aside from he and Daniel Bryan everyone in this match has held the EBWF Title. Speak a little about facing multiple opponents with, not unlike yourself, impressive resumes.
The Miz: Michael, everyday people apply for jobs all over the world. There are a million "impressive resumes" sent out to companies on a daily basis. The people that get those jobs though Michael, are the people that not only have an impressive resume, but they are also the people that have that something extra to set them apart from the rest of the stack. They are the people who JUMP off the page, and that's me Michael. Nobody jumps off the page in this business, quite like The Miz. Sure CM Punk, AJ Styles, Chris Jericho, they've all had nice careers, they've won some matches, held some titles and on paper they look impressive, but those impressive resume's may as well go right into a stack, and then that stack may as well be put right in the trash, because all of that is going to be worth nothing on Sunday. No resume in the world is going to get you a job or in this case a title when you are going up against someone like me. All the accomplishments that you are alluding to with these other guys Michael are things of the past. The only thing that truly matters is the here and now, and that is something a guy like CM Punk, for instance, seems to forget about constantly.
Michael Cole: How do you mean?
The Miz: What do you mean, how do I mean? You've heard him, the guy does nothing these days but rehash every match he's ever won, and then he yells out that he's the "Best in the World" He may be the best in the world at over hyping victories that nobody actually cares about. Like the whole thing with John Cena, sure it was interesting to see how crazy John was at first, but after awhile I honestly didn't care if they killed each other, literally, so long as I didn't have to hear another word from either of them, and I know for a fact that I'm not alone on that. Come to think of it, that's basically what CM Punk's career has become. A bunch of wins and matches that nobody cares about except for him. The guy is pathetic, last Monday he even bragged about winning a slammy, who does that?
Miz stopped and looked right at Michael Cole, who was guilty of the same thing once upon a time, in a place far far away (The WWE)
The Miz: The point is, much like Chris Jericho, it's kind of sad to see CM Punk still trying to convince us that he matters. They tried to make him vs. Cena into this big thing, but that match came and went, and then they hyped Punk getting a one on one match for the title against Cody Rhodes because he won King of the Ring, he faced Cody.. didn't win.. and now it just feels like everything he says is basically a "hey remember me? I'm still here!" Kind of plea. Punk and Jericho need to go somewhere and watch DVD's from 5 years ago, because that's the closest either of them are going to get to the glory days, ever again. CM Punk will never be the best in this World, as long as I'm around. He may be a 3 time world Champion but I will personally see to it that he won't ever be a 4 time champ. Because much like this Intercontinental Championship, once I get my hands on that piece of gold Sunday, it's not going anywhere. My opponents might not be happy about that, but unfortunately for them they'll have no other alternative but to sit back, watch, and BE JEALOUS.
Michael nodded and pumped his fist like a proud father.
Michael Cole: Yes! So true, well said Miz! You mention Chris Jericho. Last month you defeated him to retain the Intercontinental Title, as well as your right to compete for the EBWF Title. However, the match was controversial to say the least as Wes Ikeda earned a huge assist in your victory. Your thoughts on Jericho?
The Miz let out a small chuckle.
The Miz: So what are you saying Michael that I would have lost if it wasn't for Wes Ikeda?
Michael Cole: No Miz I'm just..
The Miz mocked him.
The Miz: I just, I just, listen Michael the fact of the matter is, Wes Ikeda doesn't like Chris Jericho, so he saw to it that he didn't defeat me last month. If he didn't, you know who would have saw to it that Chris Jericho didn't win last month? Me. Wes doesn't like Chris, and who would, or could? Chris Jericho, with regards to this match is a minor footnote. Chris Jericho is the old guy at the park trying to play pick up basketball with the young kids and getting injured within the first 30 seconds of the game. Except he's worse, because that old guy would probably say "hey my time has officially passed, I can't run with these kids like I used to." He'd then pick up his bag and go home, whereas Chris Jericho is the old guy that would refuse a sub and limp his way through the game and ruin everyone else's time. Not because he's tough and can compete through pain, but instead because his ego is SO big he can't accept the fact that his days are over, he refuses to admit that the business has passed him by, and that it's time to pass the torch to the younger, more talented superstars.. like oh I don't know.. off the top of my head I can think of... say... me. Chris Jericho is the Brett Favre of the EBWF, he should have retired 5 years ago but just won't go away. It's gotten to the point where I'd rather listen to Fozzy then watch Chris Jericho wrestle, and that's saying something but Fozzy is one of the first bands I've ever...
Miz mocked Jericho.
The Miz: EEVVVVVVEEEEER heard in my entire life. It's bad enough that Chris Jericho is washed up in the ring, and still wrestling, but he's still making music and he was NEVER good at that in the first place. He's a has been wrestler and a never was musician, yet he just WON'T stop doing either. Old Chris Jericho is a stain on professional wrestling, any age Chris Jericho is and has always been a stain on the music industry, and any age Chris Jericho is just a stain on planet earth.. and since this stain.. this disgrace of a human being refuses to leave the public eye willingly, I will need to issue him a beating that will force his hand, so that FINALLY we won't have to see Chris Jericho competing in a wrestling ring or performing on a stage with his horrid band EVER.. AGAYNE. Once again world, YOU'RE WELCOME.
Michael smiled.
Michael Cole: The Miz, always making the world a better place.
The Miz smirked.
The Miz: 24/7 365.
Michael Cole: Now Miz what about a guy like Daniel Bryan? He's a member of Paul Heyman's Coalition, and considered by many as a Dark Horse in this match. What are your thoughts on him.
The Miz rolled his eyes, not impressed with the mention of his former stable mate.
The Miz: Dark horse? Maybe the horse that gets taken out back and shot, but certainly not a horse that could have a snowballs chance in hell of winning. Daniel Bryan has spent the last 2 months carrying my bags, clearing my lunch tray for me, entertaining the ugly girls at the bar while I talked to their good looking friends. Daniel Bryan is a gopher who looks like a goat who has the personality of a snail. Mark that down Cole that's 3 different animal references in one sentence.
Michael Cole: You are amazing.
The Miz: Obviously. Anyways, who does Paul Heyman think he's fooling? I leave the Coalition now all of a sudden Daniel Bryan is their go to guy? He's the guy that's going to lead the Coalition into power, or even on a smaller scale, relevance? They may answer that question, YES YES YES, but I'm saying NO.. NO.. NO. Daniel Bryan couldn't lead starving kids in Africa to an all you can eat buffet. Daniel Bryan is no leader, he should consider himself lucky that I let him stand in the same ring as me for the past 2 months. He should consider himself lucky, that I have wasted my breath to speak words to him over the past 2 months, and on Sunday he should consider himself lucky if he even has a pathetic wrestling career to continue when the match is over.
Michael Cole: Yes Miz but Daniel Bryan before coming here has made quite a name for himself in other promotions.
The Miz laughed.
The Miz: Daniel Bryan is Colt Cabana with a stupider beard, just a name that people build up into something they aren't. These types of guys succeed in smaller companies where for once they get to be a big fish in a small pond, but that is EXACTLY where Daniel Bryan should have stayed. He has no business being anywhere near a main event in a company like EBWF, he has no business being mentioned in the same sentence as someone like me, let alone being in the same match. Between his dull personality and the snooze fest that he is in the ring, Daniel Bryan would be better utilized performing at local high school gymnasiums where admission is 3 dollars. Paul Heyman may think that Sunday Night will be the real beginning of the Coalition's reign, but I will show him that the second I left their little rag tag group, was the second The Coalition lost ANY chance of doing ANYTHING but fading off into obscurity. The good news for Daniel Bryan is that, much like he has for the past 2 months, he will have a front row seat to watch ME continue to prove each and every day that I'm on a level that NOBODY in this company will ever reach, that I am truly the best of the best, the cream of the crop, your favorite wrestler's favorite wrestler, and Daniel, Paul Heyman, and the rest of that band of losers will have no choice but to watch their former leader be once again crowned the EBWF World Heavyweight Champion.
Michael nodded.
Michael Cole: Well I hope that happens..
Miz looked annoyed and sat up in his chair, that Michael said "hope" Cole caught on to this quickly.
Michael Cole: And I know it will!
Miz appeared pleased with the correction and sat back in his chair comfortably once again.
Michael Cole: Which brings us to the final man in this Elimination Chamber Match. A man who you know very very well, as a friend, an enemy, and everything else in between. The man who out of anyone else in this match has held the World Title most recently, I'm of course referring to AJ Styles.
The Miz smirked and sat up in his chair once again to offer a statement in response to Cole.
The Miz: What about him?
Michael Cole: Well I guess I'm saying what are your thoughts with regards to his chances in the match?
The Miz rolled his eyes, seeming baffled by this question.
The Miz: Michael, have you even been listening to a word I'm saying? What do I think of AJ's chances to win this match? I think.. no I KNOW.. that he has NO chance to win this match, because as I've already told you and the whole world, I AM GOING TO WIN THIS MATCH. AJ Styles may have been the man to take the EBWF Title off me the first time back at Wrestlemania, but he's ALSO the man that is personally responsible for me not having it right now, because if it wasn't for AJ getting pinned back at Sacrifice I would have found a way to win, because finding away to win is what I do. This is ALSO the same AJ that I had to save from getting demolished by Cody and Ted a couple months back on Warfare gift wrapping that victory for him, and as far as lately goes, we've barely even seen the guy on TV since then. I'm not sure what he's been up to, maybe settling his 9th divorce, relapsing, laying around playing X-Box with Trent Barreta, whatever it is he does. Meanwhile I've been back two months, and nobody has made more noise in that time than I have. While all my opponents have been either not here, or losing, I've been in the public eye winning titles, outsmarting people, basically being all that is Miz, which in other words is being all that is awesome.
Michael Cole: You are so right Mi..
Miz put his hand up.
The Miz: I'm not done, so when you ask me about AJ Styles my response is simple. AJ Styles, finally had his moment in the Sun. He got to carry around MY belt for a few months, good for him, la dee da, and I'd argue that there wasn't ever a worse time in the EBWF than the time he was champion. The EBWF Title basically took a backseat to Chris Jericho vs. Wes Ikeda or CM Punk vs. John Cena, it became an afterthought, and that is because the man who held the title..
Miz whispered.
The Miz: AJ.
Normal voice.
The Miz: SHOULD be nothing but an afterthought. AJ Styles as the champion was like trying to fit a square into the circle space on one of those toys that teach kids about shapes. It just wasn't right, it just didn't fit. Nothing about AJ Styles says top dog. Nothing about AJ Styles points to the fact that he should be looked at as anything but a C list superstar in this business. He's a screw up outside the ring, and he's overrated inside of it. So he can flip around, so do gymnasts, and you don't see Nastia Lukin trying to beat me inside an Elimination Chamber, do you Michael?
Michael Cole: No Miz, you could totally take her.
The Miz stared at Michael blankly again.
The Miz: I know I could take her, I could take anyone, I'm The Miz for god sakes.. but what I'm getting at is just because AJ can do a back handspring or whatever he does, doesn't make him worthy of being in the upper echelon of this company. I will give him that my win loss record against him, is the worst for me against any other superstar in the business, I will give him that whether it was my fault or not, our matches have not always gone the way I wanted them to, but the fact of the matter is this Michael.. that was then. That was when I was too preoccupied and too paranoid, that was MY mistake in my first go around as the champion. This though Michael.. is now.. I'm the best Miz that I've ever been, which is saying QUITE A BIT, but I'm a Miz that isn't leaning on anyone but myself, because what I've realized is that's ALL I'VE EVER NEEDED, I'm a Miz that when I become champion again on Sunday, will not be paranoid or preoccupied, but instead be 100 percent focused on being the best EBWF Champion and the best EBWF Intercontinental Champion, this company has ever seen.. and oh yeah.. I'll do it at the same time. A tall task for an ordinary man, but as you know Michael I'm not just any man. The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is of course..
Michael seemed excited because he thought he knew the answer.
Michael Cole: That little "extra."
The Miz shook his head, and responded blankly.
The Miz: No.. the difference between ordinary and extraordinary.. is The Miz. If you think you're extraordinary or you think you're
Miz mocked AJ.
The Miz: PHENOMENAL.. and you aren't me.. well then you are sadly mistaken. I am the face of professional wrestling, but more than that I AM PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING. The fans may clap for AJ Styles because of his little circus tricks, but they clap for me, and my Mizfits are behind me, because they know that though I may be arrogant or cocky, that what I'm saying to them is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. What you see and hear with me is what you get. When I say I'm the greatest there is in this business, it's because I am. When I say that I'm unstoppable, it's because I am.. and when I say that I'm going to win this match on Sunday, it's because I AM, and there's not a damn thing AJ Styles nor anyone else in this match for that matter can do about it.
Michael Cole: So true! So is there anything else you want the world to know from EBWF's most interesting man?
The Miz: As always Michael, I want to let them know what they can expect. They can expect a bunch of superstars doing their best to entertain at Destiny, and then they can expect to see the superest of stars, blow everyone else out of the water, as soon as I enter the ring. The last time I was in an elimination chamber match, it was at Fallout, and just like I will on Sunday I won and left the EBWF Champion. This Sunday, 5 of the pods, will contain superstars that will hope and wish for a victory, and a 6th pod that will contain a superstar that will MAKE IT HAPPEN. I am the EBWF's most interesting man and Michael.. I don't always enter Elimination Chambers.. but when I do.. I walk out with the EBWF World Heavyweight Championship around my waist. Because I'm The Miz.. and I'M.
The Miz looked right at Michael Cole and spoke his last word softly, but packed with emotion.
The Miz: Awesome.
The Miz took his microphone off, and walked out of the room. The scene cut to a couple more shots of his cover shoot, and then faded back into the studio where Coach and Grisham continued previewing Destiny.
