Miz tv with Drew Mcintyre
This week, statistically speaking, your road to mania could end at EC- Miz won’t let Drew get a word in. He just keeps talking. Drew finally yells at Miz SHUT THE HELL UP. He warns him not to interrupt him again. Miz interrupts, eats a Glasgow Kiss. Then he launches the briefcase. At least they kept it short. Miz gets back on when Drew leaves, he keeps talking about EC. He says he’s a master strategist. Morrison is noticeably absent. Hopefully they took him away so he could be with Taya. Miz claims he’s in control a la Bischoff. Miz says he’s removing himself from the EC match.
