Cena took to social media to challenge Styles, claiming he doesnt handpick opponents but listens to the fans. AJ Styles quickly accepted, and Triple H sealed the deal within hours, confirming the bout for October 11 in Perth, Australia. But during an appearance on Unlikely with Adrian Hernandez, The Miz made sure his voice was heardand he didnt hold back. When asked about the Cena vs Styles match, Miz admitted the announcement hit a nerve:
He then reminded fans that his history with Cena runs deepmost notably defeating him in the main event of WrestleMania 27.
According to Miz, hes been trying to secure a final match with Cena since the retirement tour kicked off, saying:
With Cena reportedly only having five dates left, Miz feels the window is rapidly closing.
He even confronts Cena about the countdown every time they cross paths backstage:
But its not just about himself. Miz believes future stars are missing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to step in the ring with Cena.
Triple H may have given fans Cena vs Styles, but The Miz wants the WWE Universe to remember he beat Cena at WrestleManiaand hes still waiting for that final round.
