On September 1st, The Miz celebrated twenty years in the business.
From locker room goof to Grand Slam champion, the Cleveland native is one of the most seasoned superstars still performing in WWE. There were many tributes to honor the two decades of The Miz’s career, but one message stood out from the rest: John Cena. The Champ expressed his full respect for his former rival on Twitter.
He states :
« Respect is earned. You earned mine a long time ago […] Congratulations on these 20 incredible years! You ARE the example I consistently cite to young talents to illustrate the importance of effort and the ability to turn anything into entertainment! »
Respect is earned. You earned mine a long time ago. Each sunset makes it far more difficult for most anyone else to deny theirs. Congratulations on an incredible 20 years! You ARE the example I consistently bring up to young talent of effort & turning anything into entertaining! https://t.co/uVwLw0IvmG

Today, The Miz is 45 and for several years now continues to spotlight younger superstars. In 2026, he is seen beside Kit Wilson, and fans are waiting for the former Intercontinental Champion to reclaim his success.
