The Miz recalls how winning Money In The Bank impacted his career.
WWE shared a new Money In The Bank retrospective where past winners reflected on what their briefcase wins meant to them. The video featured Seth Rollins, Bayley, Asuka and many others, including The Miz, who looked back on his life-changing win in 2010.
“I never utilized it for anything, just the contract was in it. I’d walk around with it and like in an airport you’d have to explain what the Money In The Bank contract is, which I didn’t mind because it was truly an honor to hold this briefcase and this contract.
“This changed my life, changed my career. I don’t know if I didn’t win this contract if I would’ve become the Superstar that I am today.”
WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard recently spoke with The Miz, who reflected on his WrestleMania in-ring highlights.
“Wrestlemania, I love the triple threat that Seth [Rollins], Finn [Balor] and myself did in New Orleans. I thought that was awesome,” Miz said.
“Anytime you can main event WrestleMania — granted, the Internet Wrestling Community doesn’t really give me the clout or the [credit] of what that match was and what we had to go through to get to it. And so at WrestleMania 27, I love that match. I still love it to this day,” he said. “When I hit Alex Riley with a briefcase and Cena hit me with his AA, no one saw me kicking out, no one. No one saw me winning that match ever.
“If you were to put a bet at WrestleMania 27 that I was going to win that match, you would have said ‘not a chance.’ And I did, it’s crazy,” Miz said. “I always put that one up there.”
