The WWE Champion Miz recently had an interview with TalkSPORT and opened up about the reactions of fans for his both title wins. He said that 10 years ago it was 100% negative but now it was half and half reactions.
Here what Miz said about fan reactions:
“In 2010, it was 100 percent negativity. From the critics, from Twitter, from all the fans, 100 percent negativity. ‘You shouldn’t have it, you suck, you’re the worst’.”
“10 years later, it was half and half. It was you suck, but we respect you. Or it was like he deserves it, he should have gotten it two years ago, he deserves it and others were like this is the weakest champion we’ve ever had.”
The Miz also said that he uses this negative fan reactions as his ‘fuel for his fire’ to prove them wrong and also mentioned that the ‘Angry Miz Girl’, who was his biggest hater, changed her mind. Now, she is one of the biggest fan of The Miz.
“To be honest, I look at it all as fuel for my fire, to prove these people wrong. To showcase the talent that I have that maybe they don’t see. That maybe I can enlighten them.”
“If you look at interviews with ‘Angry Miz Girl’, who was my biggest hater, could not stand me, 10 years later I saw an interview with her and she said she loves seeing me with the title. She enjoys it and there’s no bigger fan than her. So I was able to change that person’s mind and that’s what I plan on doing with this title reign.”
The A-lister Miz is currently scheduled to defend his WWE Title next week on Raw against the All Mighty Bobby Lashley.
