WrestleMania 37 is almost here, but WWE Raw didn’t get us hyped for the big show. Apart from the main event, the episode featured filler and some horrible storytelling in one of Raw’s main rivalries. Keeping the complaints aside, let’s see who heads into WrestleMania with momentum on their side. DREW MCINTYRE AND BOBBY LASHLEY VICTORIOUS ON WWE RAW [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/drew-mcintyre-vs-king-corbin.jpg] Both Drew McIntyre [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/drew-mcintyre/] and Bobby Lashley [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/bobby-lashley/] had huge singles matches advertised for WWE Raw. The WWE Champion faced his former stablemate Cedric Alexander, while McIntyre took on Baron Corbin. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/bobby-lashley-vs-cedric-alexander-2.jpg] Lashley ran through Alexander and looks set to beat Drew at WrestleMania. Corbin could not take out McIntyre and ate a Claymore for his troubles, setting the path to WrestleMania completely clear for the #1 contender. RHEA RIPLEY STANDS TALL OVER ASUKA [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/rhea-ripley-vs-asuka.jpg] The #1 contender for the Raw Women’s Championship, Rhea Ripley [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rhea-ripley/] teamed up with her WrestleMania opponent against Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. Asuka and Ripley put on a strong fight, but a betrayal led to the champion getting pinned. Despite the loss, Ripley heads into WrestleMania with the psychological advantage over Asuka. If there’s any way for the Empress of Tomorrow to win, she has to overcome the mind games and use her skill to put away her most fearsome challenger. RIDDLE BEATS ALI, WHO BRINGS BACK HIS OLD GEAR [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/riddle-vs-mustafa-ali.jpg] Matt Riddle defends his United States Championship at WrestleMania against Sheamus. The Celtic Warrior has put together a string of excellent matches, making him a must-watch in 2021. While he misses out on a WWE Championship shot, the United States Championship is a worthy consolation. On Raw, Riddle defeated Ali, who doesn’t have the support of Retribution anymore. He brought back his old gear from when he was a babyface on SmackDown, but it couldn’t help him get the win over Riddle. THE MIZ TAKES HIS ISSUES WITH BAD BUNNY TO THE NEXT LEVEL ON WWE RAW [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/the-miz-and-john-morrison.jpg] If you thought a guitar shot to the back was too much, wait till you see what The Miz [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-miz/] pulled off on Raw. The former WWE Champion defaced Bad Bunny’s $3.6 million Bugatti with red paint. Pissed off with what transpired, Bad Bunny and Damian Priest challenged Miz and Morrison to a tag team match at WrestleMania [https://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/wrestlemania-37], and they happily accepted the challenge. Other matches included: Xavier Woods beats AJ Styles, Braun Strowman beats Elias and Jaxon Ryker. Three WrestleMania matches confirmed: Tag Team Turmoil for #1 Contender for Women’s Tag Team Championships [Night 1], Women’s Tag Title match [Night 2], Bad Bunny and Damian Priest vs The Miz and John Morrison [Night 1].

<h2 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania</h2>
One of WWEâ€™s Big Five, WrestleMania is arguably the largest pro wrestling event in the world. Its first iteration featured the likes of Andre the Giant, Mr T, and Hulk Hogan, and a total attendance of just shy of 20,000 people. With WWE increasing the stakes each year, its latest iteration, WrestleMania XL, is set to feature over 25 of the promotionâ€™s biggest wrestlers, including Dwayne Johnson, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Rhea Ripley.
<h2 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania Origins</h2>
WrestleMania was conceptualized as a rival to NWAâ€™s Starrcade, which began in 1983 and was initially organized by Jim Crockett Promotions. The two promotions were in a fierce battle to come out on top in the 80s, with NWAâ€™s popularity waning as the then-WWF expanded nationwide, with a hope to go global. Former WWE head honcho Vince McMahon was credited with creating the concept of WrestleMania. The PPVâ€™s name originated from WWFâ€™s lead ring announcer Howard Finkel, as a play on the Beatlemania of the 60s.

As WWFâ€™s inaugural PPV, the first-ever WrestleMania took place in 1985 at Madison Square Garden. Though WrestleMania 1 didnâ€™t manage to outshine the 1985 edition of Starrcade, which had a combined attendance of 30,000 people, it still managed to beat Starrcadeâ€™s debut attendance of 15,000, with over 19,000 people attending WrestleMania 1 in person, setting the stage for a PPV that would go on to become a household name.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Evolution of WrestleMania</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania I-IV: The Foundation</b></h3>
Even with its debut, WrestleManiaâ€™s core tenet was â€œgo big or go homeâ€. WWF went all out, with a match card featuring wrestling greats like The Iron Sheikh, Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, Ricky Steamboat, David and Bruno Sammartino, and The Fabulous Moolah. In keeping with what would later become tradition, the flagship marquee event also featured several big names from the era, including boxing legend Muhammed Ali, pianist Liberace, pop sensation Cyndi Lauper, and New York Yankees manager Billy Martin.

The all-round success of WrestleMania 1 saw WWF overtake NWA and AWA (American Wrestling Association). The event was critical to the '80s wrestling boom, which saw a sharp increase in the demand for professional wrestling.

Shortly after, WrestleMania II took the show to another level, simultaneously taking place in three different venues across the country - New York, Chicago, and California. While initially received poorly, as the logistics of organizing a major wrestling event across three venues overtook the promotion, it set the stage yet again for WWF one-upping itself with each edition.

In comparison, WrestleMania III managed to outshine its previous iterations, having broken the record for the largest recorded attendance at an indoor live event in North America with a purported attendance of over 93,000 people, only broken by WrestleMania 32 in 2016. It was also iconic for its matches, with Ricky Steamboat vs Randy Savage, and Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant going down in history as two of the greatest matches in pro wrestling history. While not as iconic as its predecessor, WrestleMania IV featured the first appearance of Donald Trump at a Mania, marking the start of the relationship between the promotion and the Trump Organization.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania V-X: The Golden Era</b></h3>
WrestleMania during the Golden Era was truly something to behold. The promotionâ€™s fame had skyrocketed, effectively cementing itself as a stalwart player in the pro wrestling industry. With the success of WrestleMania came the introduction of pay-per-views like SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, and Survivor Series, meaning that the Golden Era had more to offer throughout the year.

However, WrestleManiaâ€™s popularity never waned with the addition of the new PPVs, as it continued to remain the biggest wrestling event in the country. WrestleMania saw some of the most legendary moments in WWE history in the early â€˜90s. Major feuds between Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, and Shawn Michaels, aka Mr. WrestleMania, and Razor Ramon managed to outsell competitors in popularity.

The Golden Era of WWE served as a platform to cement the legacies of several WWE legends who have remained a household name till today, including Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and The Ultimate Warrior. WrestleMania VII also saw the beginning of The Undertakerâ€™s Mania streak that would continue well into the 2010s.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania XI-XX: Attitude Era Impact</b></h3>
WrestleMania during the Attitude Era saw the culmination of several iconic storylines coming to a head at the Grandest Stage of Them All. The PPV reached its peak during this period, with â€˜Stone Coldâ€™ Steve Austin beating Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XIV for the WWF Championship title, marking the first of six title reigns.

This also marked the beginning of the legendary rivalry between Austin and Dwayne â€˜The Rockâ€™ Johnson, the epitome of the Attitude Era. WrestleMania XV saw the first fight between the two pro wrestling stalwarts, where Stone Cold beat The Rock during the main event to win back the WWF Championship belt.

The beginning of the new Millennium also saw the introduction of the first-ever Triangle Ladder match, with the iconic tag teams The Hardy Boyz, The Dudley Boyz, and Edge and Christian going against each other for the WWF Tag Team Championship. This era also saw the first-ever WrestleMania under the WWE at WrestleMania XIX, which also marked the end of Steve Austinâ€™s feud with The Rock.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania XXI-XXX: New Millennium Milestones</b></h3>
In keeping up with becoming bigger and better, WWE introduced the concept of the Money In The Back ladder match at WrestleMania 21, which would become a main fixture in the PLE. This period of WrestleMania managed to rival the Attitude Era, giving us iconic matches with The Undertaker vs Batista at WrestleMania 23 and Ric Flairâ€™s retirement match against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XXIV.

WrestleMania XXX in particular was something to behold, as The Undertakerâ€™s unbroken 22-year streak was finally broken by Brock Lesnar, rendering the WWE universe in awe. Other moments also include Daniel Bryanâ€™s rise to the top after an initial win against Triple H and a win against Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania during the 2010s</b></h3>
The latter half of the 2010s saw increased interest in WrestleMania as WrestleMania 32 broke the attendance record previously set by WrestleMania III, with an attendance of over 101,000 people. With WWE itself moving towards organizing events in international venues, this expanded the reach WrestleMania had with fans outside of the States. WrestleMania 35 was the first since 2000 to not feature The Undertaker, but more importantly, was also the first WrestleMania to feature a womanâ€™s main event, with a triple threat match between Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Ronda Rousey.
<h3 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania in the 2020s</h3>
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 36</b></h4>
WrestleMania 36 was a plethora of WrestleMania firsts, with the first-ever edition of the PLE to be held across two nights and the first to not have a live audience due to pandemic restrictions. Considering restrictions, the 2020 iteration of Mania was widely regarded a success, especially in the backdrop of no live audiences, as well as several last-minute changes to the roster to account for potential health risks. This was also heightened by WWE deciding to play with its format, with a Firefly Fun House match with Bray Wyatt taking down John Cena.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 37</b></h4>
While WrestleMania 36 was an example of WWE making do, WrestleMania 37 saw the promotion come back bigger and better. The 37th iteration of The Show of Shows took place in Tampa, Florida, where the reduction in COVID-19 protocols meant more freedom for WrestleMania to have a live audience, albeit limited capacity and with restrictions to the audience.

This also marked the first WWE event to be livestreamed solely on Peacock, a product of the WWE Networkâ€™s earlier merger with Peacock in March of that year.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 38</b></h4>
WrestleMania 38 marked the year when WWE returned the Showcase of the Immortals to its full capacity, with over 131,000 people attending over the course of two days. This also led to the evolution of WrestleMania Weekend, with WWE kickstarting the PLE with a special edition of Friday Night SmackDown featuring an Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal. The PLE also saw the surprise return of Cody Rhodes, as he took on Seth Rollins on Night 1, as well as Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar headlining the event on Night 2.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 39</b></h4>
In its most recent iteration, WrestleMania continues to prove its worth as the biggest pro wrestling event in history, with Mania 39 grossing $21.6 million in ticket sales alone. The PLE saw the appearance of several modern WWE greats including John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Rey Mysterio, Charlotte Flair, Edge, Roman Reigns, and Cody Rhodes.
<h2 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania XL Event Details</h2>

<h1 class="acss2f015">Bobby Lashley 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h1>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-434455 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/bobby-lashley-3.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />

WWE believes in giving its best superstars second chances, and Bobby Lashley is one of those who is making the best out of it. Probably one of the most impressive physical specimens in wrestling, Lashley is a freak of nature. For a man of his size and strength, he's as nimble as a cat. His extended MMA background gives him a distinct advantage over his fellow superstars.

Bobby Lashley began his wrestling career in 2005, wrestling dark matches on Raw and SmackDown. He made his live television debut on SmackDown in 2005, beating Shawn Dean in his debut match. He beat Dean in his PPV debut as well at No Mercy.

Lashley would dominate superstars on Raw, until he ran into top stars like JBL and Booker T. Booker T beat Lashley in the King of the Ring finals, but he won the United States Championship from JBL two days later. One year after his PPV debut, Lashley headed into No Mercy 2005 to win the World Heavyweight Championship, but was unsuccessful.
<h2>ECW and WWE Championship pursuits</h2>
[caption id="attachment_457640" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]<img class="wp-image-457640" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-115430029-401x315.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="942" /> Bobby Lashley during Donald Trump and WWE News Conference for WrestleMania 23 at Trump Tower in New York City, New York, United States. (Photo by George Napolitano/FilmMagic)[/caption]

Lashley shocked the world by going to ECW, where he won the ECW Championship at the horrid December to Dismember PPV. He defended the title frequently, restoring some of its credibility, but lost it in the most humiliating way. In a 3 on 1 handicap match, Vince McMahon pinned Lashley to win the ECW Championship. Prior to this, Lashley played a role in Vince's humiliating head-shaving moment at WrestleMania 23.

Prior to leaving WWE, Lashley made two attempts at winning the WWE Championship too. Both times, John Cena successfully retained the championship, including in an excellent Great American Bash title match.
<h2>TNA/Impact Wrestling (2007-2018)</h2>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-567519 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210228145133/bobby-lashley-tna.jpg" alt="" width="1400" height="1400" />

Lashley found success in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, making WWE realise they lost a good one. From 2007 to 2010, Lashley feuded with some of the biggest names in TNA. He faced the likes of Samoa Joe, Scott Steiner, Kurt Angle and Kevin Nash.

Lashley left TNA to focus on his MMA career, but returned in 2014. In his second run, he became the first African-American TNA World Heavyweight Champion, and held it for three months, losing it to Robert Roode. He won the title once again, before losing it to Kurt Angle in January 2015. Lashley would have four reigns with the TNA/IMPACT World Championship.
<h2>Return to WWE (2018- Present)</h2>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-432677 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Lashley-Champ-1280x720-1.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" />

Bobby Lashley returned to WWE after WrestleMania 34, attacking Elias. He soon inserted himself into the Universal Title picture. Unfortunately, he was beaten by Roman Reigns who went on to beat Lesnar at SummerSlam. After that, Lashley lost a lot of momentum and turned heel. In January 2019, he beat Dean Ambrose for the Intercontinental Championship. He then began feuding with Finn Balor, to whom he lost at WrestleMania 35.

Lashley would feud with the Shield and Braun Strowman in 2019, before he became embroiled in a feud with Rusev over his wife Lana. Lana and Lashley would torment Rusev in an intensely personal and vulgar storyline. Fans rejected the storyline, and once Rusev left WWE, Lashley found a new challenge as the CEO of the Hurt Business.

He won the United States Championship from Apollo Crews at the Payback PPV and held the title till Elimination Chamber 2021. After losing the title to Riddle, Lashley shifted his focus to the WWE Championship.

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-932343" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Lashley-2.jpg" alt="" width="1359" height="1080" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">Eventually, Lashley fulfilled his destiny when he </span><span style="font-weight: 400">defeated The Miz in a lumberjack match to win the WWE Championship for the first time in his career. From then on, Lashley went on a dominating streak where he defeated stars like Kofi Kingston and Goldberg, and Randy Orton. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, ‘The Almighty’ lost the title on an episode of Monday Night Raw when Big E surprisingly cashed in his Money in the Bank contract after Lashley’s grueling match with Orton.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">After losing the title, Lashley re-ignited his feud with Goldberg and lost at the Crown Jewel PPV. Eventually, Lashley took some time off the TV and returned on Monday Night Raw.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, he soon fixed his target, and the target was the newly crowned WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar. Seeing the opportunity, WWE booked the first-ever one-on-one match between Lashley and Lesnar at this year’s Royal Rumble PPV.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">During the bout, Lashley surprised the WWE Universe when he displayed the equivalent strength as Lesnar. Eventually, Lashley won the match, thanks to the interference from Roman Reigns. Thus, Lashley won the WWE Championship for the second time in his career.</span>
<h2>MMA career</h2>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-517732 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210117111255/010_Bobby_Lashley.0.0.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="800" />

Similar to Jake Hager and Brock Lesnar, Bobby Lashley holds a supremely impressive MMA record. He has competed in promotions like Shark Fights, Strikeforce, Titan Fighting Championships, India's Super Fight League and Bellator MMA.

He has a record of 15-2-0. His two losses came against Chad Griggs and James Thompson. Thompson beat him in New Delhi, India, but Lashley got his revenge at Bellator 145, knocking him out in 0:54.

Bobby Lashley

Bobby Lashley 2022: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements WWE believes in giving its best superstars second chances, and Bobby Lashley is one of those who is making the best out of it. Probably one of the most impressive physical specimens in wrestling, Lashley is a freak of nature. For a man of his size and strength, he&#8217;s as nimble as a cat. His extended MMA background gives him a distinct advantage over his fellow superstars. Bobby Lashley began his wrestling career in 2005, wrestling dark matches on Raw and SmackDown. He made his live television debut on SmackDown in 2005, beating Shawn Dean in his debut match. He beat Dean in his PPV debut as well at No Mercy. Lashley would dominate superstars on Raw, until he ran into top stars like JBL and Booker T. Booker T beat Lashley in the King of the Ring finals, but he won the United States Championship from JBL two days later. One year after his PPV debut, Lashley headed into No Mercy 2005 to win the World Heavyweight Championship, but was unsuccessful. ECW and WWE Championship pursuits Bobby Lashley during Donald Trump and WWE News Conference for WrestleMania 23 at Trump Tower in New York City, New York, United States. (Photo by George Napolitano/FilmMagic) Lashley shocked the world by going to ECW, where he won the ECW Championship at the horrid December to Dismember PPV. He defended the title frequently, restoring some of its credibility, but lost it in the most humiliating way. In a 3 on 1 handicap match, Vince McMahon pinned Lashley to win the ECW Championship. Prior to this, Lashley played a role in Vince&#8217;s humiliating head-shaving moment at WrestleMania 23. Prior to leaving WWE, Lashley made two attempts at winning the WWE Championship too. Both times, John Cena successfully retained the championship, including in an excellent Great American Bash title match. TNA/Impact Wrestling (2007-2018) Lashley found success in TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, making WWE realise they lost a good one. From 2007 to 2010, Lashley feuded with some of the biggest names in TNA. He faced the likes of Samoa Joe, Scott Steiner, Kurt Angle and Kevin Nash. Lashley left TNA to focus on his MMA career, but returned in 2014. In his second run, he became the first African-American TNA World Heavyweight Champion, and held it for three months, losing it to Robert Roode. He won the title once again, before losing it to Kurt Angle in January 2015. Lashley would have four reigns with the TNA/IMPACT World Championship. Return to WWE (2018- Present) Bobby Lashley returned to WWE after WrestleMania 34, attacking Elias. He soon inserted himself into the Universal Title picture. Unfortunately, he was beaten by Roman Reigns who went on to beat Lesnar at SummerSlam. After that, Lashley lost a lot of momentum and turned heel. In January 2019, he beat Dean Ambrose for the Intercontinental Championship. He then began feuding with Finn Balor, to whom he lost at WrestleMania 35. Lashley would feud with the Shield and Braun Strowman in 2019, before he became embroiled in a feud with Rusev over his wife Lana. Lana and Lashley would torment Rusev in an intensely personal and vulgar storyline. Fans rejected the storyline, and once Rusev left WWE, Lashley found a new challenge as the CEO of the Hurt Business. He won the United States Championship from Apollo Crews at the Payback PPV and held the title till Elimination Chamber 2021. After losing the title to Riddle, Lashley shifted his focus to the WWE Championship. Eventually, Lashley fulfilled his destiny when he defeated The Miz in a lumberjack match to win the WWE Championship for the first time in his career. From then on, Lashley went on a dominating streak where he defeated stars like Kofi Kingston and Goldberg, and Randy Orton.  However, ‘The Almighty’ lost the title on an episode of Monday Night Raw when Big E surprisingly cashed in his Money in the Bank contract after Lashley’s grueling match with Orton. After losing the title, Lashley re-ignited his feud with Goldberg and lost at the Crown Jewel PPV. Eventually, Lashley took some time off the TV and returned on Monday Night Raw. However, he soon fixed his target, and the target was the newly crowned WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar. Seeing the opportunity, WWE booked the first-ever one-on-one match between Lashley and Lesnar at this year’s Royal Rumble PPV. During the bout, Lashley surprised the WWE Universe when he displayed the equivalent strength as Lesnar. Eventually, Lashley won the match, thanks to the interference from Roman Reigns. Thus, Lashley won the WWE Championship for the second time in his career. MMA career Similar to Jake Hager and Brock Lesnar, Bobby Lashley holds a supremely impressive MMA record. He has competed in promotions like Shark Fights, Strikeforce, Titan Fighting Championships, India&#8217;s Super Fight League and Bellator MMA. He has a record of 15-2-0. His two losses came against Chad Griggs and James Thompson. Thompson beat him in New Delhi, India, but Lashley got his revenge at Bellator 145, knocking him out in 0:54.

<h2><b>Drew McIntyre Career Timeline</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre began his wrestling career in 2001 in the United Kingdom. He got a developmental deal with WWE in 2007 and was assigned to Ohio Valley Wrestling and Florida Championship Wrestling. In 2009, he worked on SmackDown as The Chosen One, winning both the WWE Intercontinental Championship and the WWE Tag Team Championship. During the following years,</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre went on to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship over John Morrison at the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs event but lost it to Kofi Kingston at the 2010 Over the Limit. He also won the WWE Tag Team Championship alongside Cody Rhodes at the 2010 Night of Champions. Later in the year, the two would lose the Bragging Rights competition. McIntyre would continue to participate in matches for various titles but always found himself falling short of the finish line.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">2012 saw McIntyre form the trio 3MB, with Jinder Mahal and Heath Slater. The trio would attempt to wreak havoc but always fell short.

Furthermore, at the Royal Rumble PPV, the Scottish Warrior defeated Keith Lee and defended his title against WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, McIntyre lost his championship when Miz cashed in his Money In the Bank contract (which he was able to reclaim due to a contractual loophole) at the 2021 Elimination Chamber.

Styles and The Miz, who cashed in on his Money in the Bank contract at TLC PPV. Furthermore, at the Royal Rumble PPV, the Scottish Warrior defeated Keith Lee and defended his title against WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg. However, McIntyre lost his championship when Miz cashed in his Money In the Bank contract (which he was able to reclaim due to a contractual loophole) at the 2021 Elimination Chamber. Prior to Miz cashing in his Money in the Bank, Bobby Lashley assaulted McIntyre, after which The Miz used the Skull-Crushing Finale to pin McIntyre and win the WWE Championship, therefore ending McIntyreâ€™s second reign as Champion. The Scottish wrestler would contest for the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and the Intercontinental Champion, but they failed to achieve both belts. He would also challenge Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Champion and failed in his initial attempt. After earning a chance to compete against Rollins in WrestleMania 40, he would win by pinfall. After his victory, a brawl would break out between him and CM Punk as McIntyre mocked the former UFC fighter. Punk would go on to thrash McIntyre, which was followed by Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank, to then pin the Champion and win in 9 seconds.

<h2>The Miz 2021: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
He came to play, and what a game-changer he is. The Miz is one of the best feel workers in WWE history and has been the proverbial ‘bad guy’ throughout his career in WWE. His promo work and skills in riling up the fans are beyond impressive which makes him one of the biggest assets in the wrestling business.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/og_image/public/all/2019/04/The_Miz-bio--e1d80a6a91ca20caff3891a49e5721c9.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" data-noaft="1" />

While The Miz is known for his wrestling, he also has the gift of gab and can really work with the crowd. He is one of the superstars known to beat the ‘What?!’ Chants and is capable of keeping to his character in the loudest of boos.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

‘The Awesome One’ is truly someone to watch, whether it's in picking in his moments to cash in the Money in the Bank contract or Miz TV. There aren’t many as skilled as him in what he does, and The Miz stands tall when it comes to comparison in character graphs.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<h2>History<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></h2>
Mike Mizanin rose to fame as a reality TV star and got the word of mouth going about for him before making the shift to professional wrestling. After training in the Indie scene, he tried his luck on WWE’s Tough Enough.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

Tough Enough was the way WWE got developmental talent before NXT was created. The winner of this tournament would get a contract to WWE, and featured some names that went on to make it big in the company.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://cdn3.whatculture.com/images/2014/08/the-miz.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="300" data-noaft="1" />

Miz was not able to win but did reach the finals. His performance was so good that WWE immediately saw potential and deiced to offer him a developmental contract.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

After training for some more time, Miz made his debut on SmackDown as a live host. His ability to control the crowd impressed higher-ups and Miz was drafted to ECW. There, he made his name even bigger through flawless promos and improved on his wrestling skills.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

It took 4 more years for his big real which came in 2010 when he managed to win the WWE Championship from Randy Orton. The Miz cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Orton, who had just defended his title in a hard-fought match.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

This era was the peak of his character and he mangled two top PWI’s best pro wrestlers of the year list and received notable fame for his abilities in the ring.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
