Could be just playing on how sportsmen regularly thank God and Jesus for their success.

I kinda like it. It makes me think of Vitor "Jesus taught me the spinning head kick" Belfort and he was always good for a laugh when he wasn't destroying people.

I kinda like it because I feel it’s hilarious when he says “Thank God and Jesus for putting me on this earth to beat people up.” It’s kind of f***** up when you think of it. Like what kind of vengeful God does he pray too. Lol

I took it as Miro poking fun at himself, which is also poking fun at other athletes doing this sort of thing. Like, in kayfabe, he is using wrestling to be a violent dick...which means that if he uses a line like that in kayfabe, which makes sense for his character to do, it brings up some darkly funny implications, so he went and made those implications clear enough that everyone gets them without thinking that he is pivoting from abusive powerhouse to good ol' Christian boy.

It would fit with the “I forgive you” aspect of his character when referencing the “turn the other cheek” guy.

I now want to see the Bucks and Miro form a Christian AF stable.

Before this post, I wanna thank Jesus.
It was totally just for the heat. Miro was absolutely on-point during that entire promo. Great way to establish his character now with the title.

I think it's likely this thread will get locked. No offense to the OP.

I misread this as "Christian's boy Miro" and thought: But Miro isn't even 1/8 Malaysian as far as we know.
