A biography for The Mizhasn’t been written yet.
“The fact is I'm always going to have naysayers. You're always going to have haters. It really doesn't bother me because I just rise above it.”
“That WWE Championship should be in the main event of every pay-per-view, and it upsets me when I see that it's not.”
“The Miz came in as a way to say exactly what I was feeling and not have any repercussions for it because it was a character I was playing.”
“When you're in WWE and you're in front of 16,000 screaming fans booing you or cheering you, you only have one take.”
“WWE prepares you for everything in entertainment. It's the truth. You need a host? Get a WWE Superstar. You need someone for an action movie, a comedy movie, a drama movie, you get a WWE Superstar. Because these guys are the most well-versed, well-trained, and hardest working guys out there.”
“Whenever something's really hard, you always question yourself, and I had many times when I questioned myself, but I always rose above it.”
“You can't do WWE forever; like, your body will just not hold up.”
“As far as being a WWE Superstar, that was my dream.”
“When I talk, people listen.”
“When I was on 'The Real World,' I moved back to Cleveland, and I had a choice: My dad was like, 'You should stay in Cleveland and be the big name out here.' I was like, 'But no, Dad, I wanna be a WWE superstar.'”
“I don't want to be the dad that's not there. I don't want the kid to ever think that I wasn't there.”
“My goal is to make the WWE championship as relevant and prestigious as it should be.”
“I've had so many cool moments on 'Monday Night Raw.'”
“I walk, talk, and act like a star, and guess what? I am a star.”
“The thing about being on a reality show is you'll never get respect. You're living your life on television. You're not doing anything special.”
“When I was in Cleveland, Ohio, if you asked me what I'd be doing in 10 years, I'd probably say, 'I'll own my own Mr. Hero, living in Cleveland, married with three kids.' Now I can say I've literally traveled the world with WWE.”
“I am on an elite level of talent.”
“I literally have a private jet on call at all times.”
“I've always enjoyed bad guys throughout all movies.”
“The reason I wanted to be a WWE Superstar was because of The Rock. I used to watch him in The Attitude Era. There was no one more electrifying and no one more must-see than The Rock.”
