John Cena Backstage At RAW, The Miz Speaks Out

-- Ryan Mulloy sent this one in: I got a chance to listen to The Miz on Danny Bonaduce here in Philly on 94.1 WYSP. Not a very long piece. I know he's been working hard to over the last couple of years to be a "go to guy" for WWE, and I'd say he's there now, with or without the title. Very professional. Very real. In hyping tonight's Raw, Miz came across as a toned down version of his character and gelled well with Bonaduce, who didn't seem completely up on the current product, but good enough. Miz mentioned the show and the Wells Fargo Center a number of times to get it over and then did the standard "anything can happen on live TV" attitude. He also put over the Philadelphia audience being real honest with the wrestler's as far as what they like and dislike. Translation: Miz expects to be booed out of the building because "I beat their heroes." Miz also put over the current Cena storyline, mentioning Cena's tweet about buying a ticket to tonight's show since he was fired. Overall, a great job.

-- John Cena noted on his Twitter account that he stopped by the site of tonight's RAW this afternoon and that he plans on attending the show with a ticket. "Love it here in philly," he wrote. "Still got my tix and stopped by arena early to say hi to old pals. Tonight will be fun." :-)
