Miz just shot up my list TEN FOLD. Wow. Oh my god.

 

[Zabka]

Daniel Bryan's out on the DL with a crushed soul

 

[Cheat Code]

Promo of the fucking year.

Incredible.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Why's Miz's best promo ever on the post-Smackdown talkshow?

 

[Xion385]

Miz just cut the promo of his life!

 

[Hidden One]

OK MIZ I LOVE YOU NOW

HOLY FUCKIN SHIT OMG SHOOOOOOOOT SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

 

[Tagyhag]

If they get rid of Talking Smack because of all the shootin I'm going to be so pissed.

This is GOLD.

 

[Guzim]

I can never hate the Miz ever again.

 

[Pikma]

This is probably the last Talking Smack lol

It was good while it lasted

 

[Judderman]

Hooooly shit that was good.

 

[dream]

Miz has been great for the past 5 years. You've just never noticed.

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

That's honestly one of the best promos...maybe ever. Holyshit miz lol

 

[Ithil]

Smackdown is a LOT more interesting than RAW.

 

[vatstep]

Talking Smack

the best 22 minutes of the week

utter savagery

 

[Toki767]

If they get rid of Talking Smack because of all the shootin I'm going to be so pissed.

This is GOLD.

Talking Smack is honestly the best way possible to transition people from reading from a script to thinking on their feet.

I imagine they really use this as a means to see who can go off bullet points and who needs stuff written for them.

 

[786110]

that was amazing

 

[El Pescado]

Oh my FUCK. This Talking Smack! Holy shit Miz!

 

[Uno Venova]

GIVE HIM THE IC RECORD

GIVE HIM EVERYTHING

 

[Hidden One]

I legit have goose bumps! We need more of this!

 

[slightconfuse]

What did he say?

 

[Zabka]

They need to play that to open Smackdown next week. That was brutal.

 

[imBask]

I just wish he would drop the whole Hollywood angle and just do stuff like that

 

[RyougaSaotome]

Give Miz a legit feud right now.

Please.

That was goddamn incredible. More of that.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

And just like that; I look forward to Smackdown and Talking Smack next week. My goodness.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Why's Miz's best promo ever on the post-Smackdown talkshow?

Too good for tv

 

[BeatnikGunsoo]

I'm a miz fan for life now I don't care if I'm being worked but that promo was career changing dudes

 

[Howard Ballou]

Real Ass Miz era is upon us

 

[Jimmy King]

Legit wondering if that was a work or not, well done WWE.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

It's almost as if that segment existed for that very reason... Really smart booking.

 

[Ithil]

Literally the only thing needed to make that the wrestling segment of the year was right after Miz finished his promo at the camera, Bryan flew back in with the knee to the face.

 

[Xion385]

I'm a miz fan for life now I don't care if I'm being worked but that promo was career changing dudes

I'm never going to complain about his promo skills again.... maybe his wrestling, but HOLY SHIT that was great!

 

[somedevil]

This is probably the last Talking Smack lol

It was good while it lasted

This was planned. They just use bullet points then utterly scripting it. This seems like its leading to someone coming in. Samoa Joe?

 

[Hidden One]

Real Ass Miz era is upon us

Yeah I can never hate on Miz again. That shit was spoken from his heart omg. D. Bryan made him go IN.

 

[Pikma]

I feel bad for Bryan tho, Miz said exactly what Bryan himself has been thinking for the past 7 months now.

 

[truly101]

If Miz was legit pissed I kinda don't blame him especially if Bryan was actually shitting on him. Miz has been probably one of the most maligned talents for years, but he's improved a lot this year and I've actually enjoyed his IC reign. He knows what character he is and how to be effective at it, and his promos have been on point. If he's still getting shit despite the actual improvement, year I see why he's angry and I see why maybe he pushed back at Bryan like he did.

I'm hoping its a work because that was god tier

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

What did he say?

Daniel Bryan told him he doesn't like how he wrestles because he wrestles like a coward. Miz went nuclear after that. Told Bryan he's the coward because he basically "gave up" wrestling and the Miz had never missed time. It was probably still a work but damn Miz had tears in his eyes at the end.

FWIW, Bryan spoke highly of Miz in his book.

Bryan said he wrestles like a coward, which is kayfabe and true.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

I hate to say it, but I kinda do like saying it, Miz straight bodied Bryan. Rewatching it now, it's fucking magic.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

What did Miz say?

 

[El Pescado]

Seriously. I wouldn't be surprised if I woke up tomorrow to find out Bryan quit and is wrestling at Evolve's next show. Miz went IN. Jesus Christ I can't even sleep now. Give Miz the WWE Title.

Mark Alert

 

[Sibersk Esto]

someone wanna summarize

because we're so deprived of good promo work.

Miz ain't restin' on his laurels.

 

[slightconfuse]

Next thing you say is ziggler cut a good promo on the app

 

[Zabka]

What did Miz say?

Verbal turnbuckle powerbomb

 

[Ithil]

What did Miz say?

Attacked for Bryan calling him a cowardly wrestler and said Bryan is the coward for not returning to the ring, Bryan said he would return if "they" let him, and stormed off. Miz then ranted at the camera about how he would make the IC title the most important title in WWE.

Quite an amazing promo.

 

[ghostmind]

Smackdown Live (and Talking Smack) slaughtered RAW this week.

 

[Tagyhag]

someone wanna summarize

This is after DBry said Miz wrestles like a coward.

 

[blackaroni]

YOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Miz killed Bryan.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I hate to say it, but I kinda do like saying it, Miz straight bodied Bryan. Rewatching it now, it's fucking magic.

That was the point of the segment. Consider what Bryan said about hating see authority figures going over the talent and compare it to any segment featuring Steph along with a wrestler.

Bryan said he would return if "they" let him, and stormed off.

Best part of the promo was Miz responded to that by telling Bryan in that case he was a coward for not going back to the indies. Fucking ethered.
