Mini bio
How it started.
Mike Mizanin first reached television audiences on MTV’s The Real World: Back to New York in 2001. Reality TV gave him a platform, and he turned that visibility into a wrestling career, joining WWE’s main roster in 2006.
The breakthrough.
After teaming with John Morrison, Miz broke through as a singles wrestler. He won Money in the Bank in July 2010 and cashed in against Randy Orton to become WWE Champion that November. In 2011, he retained the title against John Cena in the WrestleMania XXVII main event after interference from The Rock.
Beyond the ring.
Miz & Mrs. put his family life with Maryse on television, while The Marine 6: Close Quarters cast him as Jake Carter alongside Shawn Michaels and Becky Lynch. He has since added Miz Golf on YouTube and a co-hosting role on Prime Video’s American Gladiators.
