When spoilers came out, I was not expecting anything for that match. In fact, I was wondering why Miz wouldn't be running his mouth or demanding a US Title shot (He got a win over Beniot, dang it!).
However, I really, really liked their match. Sure, it had the "blah" countout ending, but it was very entertaining and actually made Miz look better to me.
The part where Miz slapped and then kicked Finlay out of the ring actually caused me to go "Oh!" and I normally watch wrestling in a quiet state.
So...did anyone else like it? I saw a Hardy/Kennedy thread, but Miz/Finlay was what caught my eye.

Hell, even JBL was praising Miz, so something must've been done right.

If Miz works with a guy like Finlay or Benoit every single week for a few months (on the road, not just on TV) he might finally start to not suck. He's got some personality (even if it's smarmy and annoying) and if he could actually wrestle too he'd go a long way with it.

The good thing is that, at least from what I've read, he's more than willing to learn. For all we know, he may be chilling in the back with MVP and watching tapes.

I am a proud Mizfit. Even though he acts annoying whether it's his character or if he's like that in real life it's entertaining. I think he could also work as a fun babyface

Dood, I really did like that match. Miz is starting to grow on me. His shorts are awesome. He could be a WCW era Jericho type character. I just wish it didn't have so much annoying Hornswoggle interference. Every time they got into a groove he would pop up.

I thought the match was pretty good. He seemed to have good chemistry with Finlay and Hornswoggle. I'd love to see him get a chance to work more with Finlay, Benoit and Regal learning what he can from them.
I think Miz has gotten a lot better since he first showed up and lost to Puder in TE but, still has some work to go. If he keeps improving, he could be a huge star for them soon.

good match. the miz gets too much stick - he seems like a nice guy and tries hard plus his through the ropes clothesline is nice.

I liked this match a lot, I missed Matt Hardy vs. Kennedy, but this match was good. It had its sport moments as well as its entertainment (Hornswoggle). A good, solid, *** match to me.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one.
The match had some good back-and-forth, while also having some good comedy (Hornswoggle "playing some golf").
I have liked Miz and I am happy to see him improve.
