Its been about 20 years since Miz came to WWE... what are you guys' overall thoughts on em?
Tbh I'd say he'll go down as one of the most underrated guys ever. I was a fan since around 07/08 and I have been a huge fan ever since.
The guy has had an amazing career, headlined WM, never had a major injury, great mic skills, good and safe in the ring, won every title and is a 2 time grand Slam champion... I'd also say that he is one of the best IC Champs ever and maybe the best of the last 25 years.
I hope he continues to win titles in the future.

He's a reality TV personality who just got really lucky. He's a sports entertainer. That's it.

Miz has stayed consistent his whole career in a sense he cannot win matches without help. His entire run he has had someone else with him in order to get wins. Layla, Morrison, Alex Riley, R-Truth, Mizdow, Maryse, Miztourage, Shane, & Morrison again.
On his own, he would get squished by most of the roster in no time at all. But with people by his side, he has won championships upon championships. He is reality star turned Tough Enough contestant turned Diva search host turned kicked out of the locker room web show host turned straight to DVD movie star turned reality show star again. All while having people watch his back during wrestling matches in between.
It may be argued that even fans might think they could take him in a match. However, they would not win because either A they are not wrestlers or B Miz will have help or C a mix of both.

Had I never watched him as a young, moronic, Rock impersonating, dork on MTV ... I may have liked the kid and his schtick. But, I did. He will always be an MTV celeb who WWE chose to shine light on. Doesn't matter if he respects wrestling, can actually wrestle, and is good on the mic. He's a reality star.

I think he's pretty awesome but I also think he should have never been WWE Champion

Consistent, safe, always delivers, can be used any spot on the show, and a true WWE star. Will always have a job in the WWE whether wrestler or retired.
People can bash him all they want, and say that he's "safe" as Daniel Bryan would say, but Miz was correct about one thing, ever since Bryan left to go to AEW he's been injured and crippling himself non-stop. So for Miz to play it safe in the ring, just means Miz will be around much longer and have a longer career than most.

Was joke when he debuted. Got better in tag team with JoMo. Peaked in 2011. Then has been boring other than feud with Daniel Bryan. Overall not consistent enough to stay on top and when he is it is for novelty.

I prefer Miz over Danielson when it comes to wrestling. Though, when Bryan has one too many concussions and is sipping soup through a straw while Brie says, 'Birdie wishes her daddy could go to the father/daughter dance but Bryan went brain dead wrestling for 50 fans who chant "this is awesome" so now he sits here and stares blankly at the wall" then it will be all worth it for Bryan!

By far, the biggest overachiever the wrestling business has ever seen.

You should just watch VH-1 or TLC then. Lots of guys like The Miz to fawn over. And they don't even wrestle so they'll never even sprain an ankle.

Dependable guy. Good promo. Natural heel. Not a good World Champion by any stretch, and a lousy babyface, but an overall solid person to have on the roster, and perfect for the WWE style. He gets heat, which is something a lot of modern wrestlers don't understand/want these days.

About as bland of a wrestler as they come.

Boring wrestler with bland repetitive promos. Sometimes though, he gets really cringe on the mic (which probably falls on the writers.)

Bland, one note, a corporate yes man, exactly how WWE wants 'em all to be.
