The weird thing is, people say they hate the Miz. WWE said live on television that he has peaked early. WWE even seem to regard him as just a PR guy now.
Yet his title reign was actually pretty memorable.

Then he feuded with Lawler... He did a lot more than "feud" with Lawler. Another weird overreaction was when Lesnar attacked Miz during a Miz TV segment with Heyman. Like any babyface, he stood and tried to fight, but of course didn't really get any hit in and got destroyed by Lesnar. Nothing wrong with that I thought. "Puny God."

Miz is ok. I might never be a real fan or anything, but he's decent.
I don't really know who Justin Henry is, so can't comment there, as I haven't visited Wrestlecrap in years.

He's an awful face. Mostly because he has this same stupid smirk on his face, which is great as a cowardly heel after he cheap shots a face and beats him up, but is horrid as a face.

Imo Miz is a great face. I like that smirk of his. He's a good face, he's just the wrong kind of face right now. The Mizco Inferno, Fandango Cosplay, etc. stuff is the kind of stuff that Miz should be doing. He's better off as a dudebro comedy guy than trying to make him a SRS badass. He should be a wisecracking smartass who humiliates heels with one-liners, fart jokes, food fight segments, etc. in light hearted programs. At best, his "serious" moments should be few and far between so that they're that much more meaningful. Don't have him cutting "emotional" promos until the point where he's been "pushed to the edge".

He was better as a heel, least when people booed him it made sense.

I think Miz is perfectly well-suited to being a face, they're just not using him right. He seems like he should be more a Cena-ish character who generally has a sense of humor about himself and tends to be portrayed as an underdog. Could hype up how far he's made it and how hard he had to work and all of that.
Also, drop the Figure Four. It doesn't remotely fit him. I don't think his take on it is that bad, but there is really no reason to be using it over the Skull-Crushing Finale.

I used to really like the Miz back when he was champ but he's gone down hill so fast I can't stand him now. "Really?" is ridiculously annoying and his smug face makes me wanna see him get a Randy Orton beat down every time he's on TV (and maybe an off screen beat down just to make sure he doesn't come out and have a match).

Man, I don't think I've been to Wrestlecrap since quite a while before the breakup. I think the whole "Basketball Jones" thing killed it for me.

I'm still a fan of The Miz. Maybe this is like the story about the guy from creative that hated Miz. The guy wanted Maryse, and was pissed Miz was with her, so he kept pushing ideas in creative for Miz to be buried. I don't know if he's the same guy that kept calling the Divas at all hours. Also, drop the Figure Four. It doesn't remotely fit him. I don't think his take on it is that bad, but there is really no reason to be using it over the Skull-Crushing Finale. Have him use that badass snap DDT as his finisher.

It's just that it's so frequent, they had the power crappings and he took every possible opportunity to nominate him as many times as possible, to the point that it seemed like the entire point was to mock him. And the recent Headlie saying Miz's dad won Father Of The Year for not doing anything to help his son during the Orton beatdown was just over the line. I Lol'ed at that. It's like his father is Hank Hill or something and he's just sitting there, muttering and cringing in shame at Bobby getting his ass beat down. That wrasller ain't aight,i'll tell you what.

Apparently he's X-Pac now, although Kofi is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more worth it taking that spot.

Miz is a terrible character right now. Mike Mizanian is fairly talented worker however.
Justin Henry is a terrible writer. He is also a terrible writer aswell. I know I said that twice but it worth noting twice how bad of a writer he is.

2 pages and NOBODY got to the main point of the thread topic. The answer is yes. The Miz did kill Justin Henry's puppy. His name was Nacho. He was a Pomeranian. Ran him over with his Nissan. Likely accidental. replace the word "accidentally" with "repeatedly" and "dog" with "son". he WAS named Nacho, though.

I didn't hate The Miz until THAT segment with Flair and the one where he started making "your mum" jokes and then reacting to them himself, it's tough for anybody to recover from such terrible segments but at least dropping any lingering association with Flair would be a step in the right direction. As you say there's no reason he can't be a face but at the moment it's not working.

I try not to read WC....is Henry always so mad sounding?
I'll consider him my counterpart at stinking up the main sites.
