Michael Gregory Mizanin, known as The Miz, pivoted from MTV reality television into a two-decade WWE career.

His in-ring résumé spans two WWE Championships, eight Intercontinental Championships, and the rare distinction of holding the US Championship, WWE Tag Team Championship, and World Tag Team Championship simultaneously in 2010. He won Money in the Bank that same year and headlined WrestleMania XXVII in 2011, the year Pro Wrestling Illustrated ranked him No. 1 on its PWI 500 list.
