Watching smackdown and out occurred to me that in the short time drive the brand split, miz and the writers have finally made the title matter. Miz I'd knocking out out if the park both in and out if the ring. He treats the title like it is important. The writers are giving him something to actually work with and he's doing it. There is a part of me that begins ti wonder I'd he that guy,? The one that can actually bring the meaning of the title it used to have back?

I've felt that Miz makes the IC Title look important ever since his first run with it in 2012

I don't think anyone can fully do that because it's always been a stop and start thing.
Like, for example, when Macho Man had it, of course it had value.
Did it when Mountie and Piper had it for like a cup of coffee?
Then later Jericho and Benoit were treating it like something almost worth getting crippled over in their fierce feud, or when Benoit in that period had his "Prove me Wrong" angle where he'd take on anybody, doing shit like giving Rikishi a Northern Lights Suplex just to keep it.
It's in a high point again, but it will cool off again eventually, and it'll be up to someone else to bring back the momentum, but the longer they keep the fire lit, the better.

I've felt that Miz makes the IC Title look important ever since his first run with it in 2012 When, in one of this two different reigns that ended in a single day? But yeah, while I love Miz, I hated the idea of him having yet another meaningless midcard title reign when he got it back after Mania but right now he is killing it and really raising the stock of the belt. Just wish he had better competition for it, I still like Dolph but his character is a total dead-end right now.

I felt he made it look important because he spent all these years fighting for it instead of just pinning the IC Champ in a non-title match while sitting on his hands waiting for another world title run the way that they used to do with Del Rio and Sheamus.

Both ends have happened during Miz's reign with it. It was red hot leading up to Mania, and continued so culminating in that four way match where Miz won sneakily... and the Miz disappeared for like 2 months dumping a big vat of ice water on it. that it's still recovering from.

I don't see how he makes it seem important. A joke maybe but definitely not important. He rarely defends it and when he does the matches aren't that great. They would be better off giving to basically anyone but him.

Miz and Rusev's long reigns have given both the IC and US Titles importance and to be fair, neither have run thier course as champion yet so I think you can get mileage out of both until the end of the year
