Two-time WWE Grand Slam Champion The Miz recently admitted that YouTuber-turned-WWE wrestler Logan Paul is doing his \"outsider\" gimmick. The A-Lister believes Paul is doing it better than most.
During his appearance on Six Feet Under with The Undertaker, The Miz highlighted how he joined WWE from the Real World when that path was heavily criticized, compared to today when YouTubers are more easily embraced. He further jokingly added that he felt someone else was \"stealing” his gimmick and pulling it off nicely. He said:
\"When he said, \'Yeah, I\'m an outsider,\' I was like, I wonder who the first outsider was,\" The Miz said. \"I was on the Real World coming to WWE when it was hard to do that. Now you\'re a YouTuber and we applaud it, oh, he\'s in here. But our audience won\'t. But everyone else is like, yeah. But I was like, oh man, this dude\'s stealing my gimmick. And he\'s doing a really good job of it too.\
Fastest Learner Miz Has Ever Seen
The Miz labeled the former WWE US Champion Logan Paul the fastest learner he has ever witnessed in WWE. He said:
\"Logan trained as well. But Logan was the fastest I\'ve ever seen anyone pick up WWE in my life. I\'ve never, and I like, I know I\'ve said this before, but it still blows my mind how good he is and how good he can be. I do feel he\'s the future of this business.\
Bad Bunny\'s Unmatched Commitment
The Miz also praised Bad Bunny\'s dedication during the pandemic era shows at the Tampa baseball field. The former WWE IC Champion said:
\"Bad Bunny, every time I would come to the show during COVID at the baseball field in Tampa, he was there early in the ring. Then he would go sing at the Grammys, he\'d be right back in the ring. He\'d go to SNL and he would have the 24/7 title, with that title in his arm. And I was like, man, this dude just loves what we do.\
Bad Bunny\'s commitment also extended to his own car.
\"He let us spray paint his $500,000 car, real spray paint. And it was his idea. He goes, \'No, no, you spray paint.\' I think it was like a Bugatti.\
Bad Bunny, who took WWE by storm, is expected to return to the company for WrestleMania 42.
Dominik Mysterio\'s Transformation
The Miz further highlighted Dominik Mysterio\'s heel turn as another example of next-generation talent thriving.
\"Dom has a baby face now. Like, can you even see it? Like, remember he was cleanly shaven, short hair, just a smile on his face. So young. So happy to be here. Now you look at him, he\'s just Eddie Guerrero. Just like a dirt bag.\
