WWE News: The Miz Plans to Make His Mark in Gauntlet Match, UK Tournament Dark Match, Bobby Roode Celebrates Wrestling Anniversary
– The Miz appeared in a new video before tonight’s Smackdown, taking about his participation in tonight’s #1 Contender’s Gauntlet Match. Miz said that heads ready to make a statement in the match and begin his road to the WWE Championship.
“The fact that I haven’t had a chance to become the WWE Champion since I’ve been on SmackDown Live has been confusing to me since I got here because I thought as soon as I got here I should have been elevated right to the WWE Championship,” he said. “It’s taken some time and I’m finally getting what I deserve. Once I win this Gauntlet Match and become the new #1 contender, I will become the WWE Champion and be the face of SmackDown Live, where I belong.”
– Ligero beat Wild Boar in the dark match before the UK Championship Tournament taping on Tuesday, per Wrestling Inc.
– Bobby Roode posted to Twitter to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of his first wrestling match, as you can see below:
June 19 1998 was my very first pro wrestling match. It’s been an amazing 20 years in this business. Thank you to everyone who has helped me get to where I am today! #Glorious pic.twitter.com/3EN0UWogZ4
