AJ Styles vs. The Miz: Who's The MVP of SDL?

[MrElijah]

Both guys have bern knocking it out of the park, both make/made their title seem like the most important thing in the world.


Who's the man? Face That Runs the Place or the Awesome A-Lister?

Styles.

- Puts on better matches than Miz
- Is seen as a greater overall talent than Miz
- Never seems to have a bad showing

With Miz it's different. While he's improved I can't really tell you that I loved all those Miz/Ziggler matches. Same with some of the other matches Miz has been part of this year. Styles is different, I could see anyone tango with Styles and love it.

Miz is the jam filling and AJ is the frosting on the Smackdown Cake.

Ambrose is the homeless guy that shows up the party uninvited and sticks his dick in the cake.


Rhyno ate the cake.
Slater took all the plastic silverware home to clean them for reuse.

Nope. You can't make me choose.

If you told me last year I'd have trouble choosing between AJ and Miz I'd have laughed at you.

AJ Styles is the best thing in the WWE while The Miz is the best overall heel. AJ Styles is pretty much 1985-86 Wayne Gretzky that it's unfair to the second best overall guy. But I may make like the NHLPA who were sick and tired of voting for Gretzky every poll and I may vote The Miz just for some love.

AJ and it isn't even close


Miz sometimes has great promos. Aaand that is pretty much it

[AdamAFL was sooooo wrong]

It's AJ... but that doesn't detract from the great work Miz has done recently. It's just AJ has been the best all-around performer in any promotion all over the world in the last 12 months. The fact that there's even a discussion over who is the MVP of SDL is a testament to how good Miz has been recently.

This is probably the best answer. 

Miz is having arguably his best year, and if AJ  had slightly lower overall match quality from what he's had the last few months, the Miz would win it.

Miz has been having the absolute run of his career, but one could make a valid argument that Styles is the best wrestler in all of wrestling today.

[A Platypus Rave]

Easily the face that runs the place and the champ that runs the camp. He can be goofy and serious often at the same time.

Miz still tends to fall apart when he's not going into over the top self appreciation mode.

["Gizzark" Mike Wronglevenay]

If you're a main eventer and you aren't cutting the mustard, then something is wrong with the talent, writing or booking - or all three. AJ is an amazing talent, but it's very easy to be an amazing talent in the main event when you get this much promo time and seemingly, thanks to working with Cena in particular, a lot of creative freedom.

Miz is circling around a midcard title that's been getting devalued more or less non-stop since the 90s, and he is one of the best things on the show. If you're achieving that in the midcard, in modern WWE, when anyone that isn't a world title contender isn't worth shit (even on Smackdown most of the time) then you are doing something much more special than catching fire in the main event.

[RedDevil]

Miz has done some amazing work on Smackdown since the split was re-introduced, but AJ Styles is just something else completely - I'd never watched TNA and only knew AJ by his name, and the excitement online about him potentially joining the company around this time last year, but for me he has completely established himself as the best there is right now.

Basically AJ would sell me on a show just by being involved - no other current talent can do that on their own.

[MGH]

I love Miz. Miz is (...lame but appropriate) awesome and he proves it week in and week out. I believe he has earned a chance to be the brand's headliner for a time in 2017. I wish WWE was daring enough to play in to the crowd's refusal to boo AJ most nights and had Miz be the #1 contender right now. I have nothing bad to say about Miz...

Except that he isn't the best all-around pro wrestler on the planet in my eyes, and AJ Styles is. AJ is the MVP of whatever show he's on these days.

[StuntGranny®]

AJ and it's not even close. AJ is probably the MVP of wrestling in general in 2016.

[Ishmeal Loves Kaseyhausen]

Smackdown? AJ
Talking Smack? Miz

[The Kevstaaa]

AJ Styles but it's closer than I would have expected.

[Bang Bang Bart]

AJ Styles can go from being humiliated by some scrawny chinless chap to putting on a hell of a triple threat match without missing a beat.

I'm not going to ask why Rhyno still ate the cake after Ambrose put his dick in it...

We now go live to edgestar for her reaction to this thread.....
