The Miz credits Billy Kidman with giving him the best advice he’s ever received while they were at the Playboy Mansion. Miz was a guest on The Schmo and during the conversation, he mentioned how he spoke with Kidman back before he was in WWE at the famed house.
“Best advice I’ve ever got was from Billy Kidman at the Playboy Mansion,” Miz said (per Fightful). “I was trying to become a WWE Superstar, and I got invited to the Playboy Mansion, which was pretty sick. So I walk in as a 20-year-old, probably 22, and walk up to him and said, ‘Hey, man, do you have any advice?’ He’s like, ‘Stick with it.’ I was just like, ‘Wait, what? That’s it, stick with it?’
He continued, “Now, looking back on that advice, so many people find so many excuses to not do what they ever dreamed of. There’s so many times, ‘Oh, my girlfriend doesn’t like it. My boyfriend doesn’t like it. My family doesn’t like it. I have to work.’ There’s so many excuses that can take you away from your dream. If you stick with it, then you can figure out if the dream is supposed to happen or not.”
Miz eventually joined WWE a couple of years later and has gone on to have a 20 year career, including two WWE Championship reigns and almost 20 other title runs.
