WWE Superstar The Miz recently did an interview with Bleacher Report to talk about his career in the WWE, as well as his stint on MTV’s Real World before his pro wrestling career. You can check out what he had to say here:

Utilizing ‘The Miz’ character on MTV’s Real World:

“The Miz came in as a way to say exactly what I was feeling and not have any repercussions for it because it was a character I was playing. That character became very popular, not only with fans but with castmates.”

Being on ‘Real World’ helping him get ready for professional wrestling:

“It got me comfortable in front of the cameras. Whenever I had an interview, it wasn’t a nervous situation. That was something I’d done for a long time. It showed me I could play up to the cameras. The camera was my friend.”

Being disliked when he first joined WWE in 2006:

“I wasn’t liked. I think of WWE as a fraternity. You have the fans involved. You have the WWE Superstars involved. And you have me wanting to be a part of the fraternity and no one accepting me. …Every ounce of respect I have today, I had to earn. I guess I’m glad for it because it made me the person I am today and I like me.”
