WWE Intercontinental Champion The Miz spoke with FOX Sports about the WWE Draft. Here are the highlights.
On who should be picked #1 overall:
Who do you think I would take, of course, I’m going to say I’m the No. 1 draft pick. Why wouldn’t I be? I bring a value, I bring a prestige. I walk, talk and act like a star, and guess what? I am a star. I’m the Intercontinental Champion. My stats don’t even need to be said, but I’ll say them anyway. I’m a 14-time champion. I’m a two-time Slammy award winner. I’ve done movies. I host my own show. How much more do you want in an athlete, in a star, than The Miz?
On if he wants to go to RAW or SmackDown:
It’s one of those situations where you don’t know…. No one knows anything about the draft. Nothing. The only thing we know are the rules that were revealed on WWE.com yesterday.
On which stars should be called up from NXT:
Oh man. The talk of the town has been Finn Balor. Finn Balor has been killing it down there in NXT, and the fans love him. He looks like one of those guys who could be ready to be up here in WWE, but who knows what’s going to happen?
Miz also talked about the Cleveland Cavaliers winning the NBA Title this year, Maryse and more. You can read the entire interview here.
