Add as a preferred source on Google Kit Wilson and The Miz recently formed an alliance on WWE programming. The duo has been involved in a rivalry with Danhausen in recent months, though without much success so far.
The two even confronted John Cena and Danhausen on the second night of WrestleMania 42. Despite their recent setbacks in WWE rings, Wilson continues to value the career of his partner and mentor.
In a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Wilson addressed the lack of recognition The Miz receives. The wrestler said his ally is constantly underestimated considering how big he is in the company.
“I think The Miz will always get underplayed for how big he is in this company,” Wilson said. “The only time that man is going to get his respect is when he’s doing his WWE Hall of Fame speech and we get that video package right before, and then we realize, ‘wow, The Miz was the best thing that ever happened.’”
“The Miz defeated John Cena in (the WrestleMania 27 main event). And thanks to The Miz’s mentorship, I stood in the ring toe-to-toe with John Cena on the grandest stage of them all. You can’t knock this guy. The Miz is top dog.”
Kit Wilson and The Miz will compete at WWE Backlash on May 9 against Danhausen and a mystery partner.
