The Miz has announced that he has pulled himself out of the WWE Elimination Chamber match on Sunday.
Miz explained that he basically holds all the cards and he didn’t need to be in the match since he holds the Money In The Bank briefcase. During the same segment, Miz took a headbutt from WWE Champion Drew McIntyre.
It’s not clear yet why the decision was made to have Miz taken out of the match but this lines up with what Wrestling Inc. reported earlier about the creative direction changing for a top storyline.
In all fairness, @DMcIntyreWWE DID warn you, @mikethemiz… #WWERaw #MizTV pic.twitter.com/dW0Uv1C4iE
