The Miz has been consistently featured on WWE programming for decades now and he recently celebrated the 20 year anniversary of his WWE debut. Throughout the course of his career The Miz has worked with some big names, and John Cena has been one of his biggest rivals.
Recently John Cena took to social media to praise The Miz when he posted the following:
“Respect is earned. You earned mine a long time ago. Each sunset makes it far more difficult for most anyone else to deny theirs. Congratulations on an incredible 20 years! You ARE the example I consistently bring up to young talent of effort & turning anything into entertaining!”

The Miz previously picked up what was arguably the biggest win of his career at WrestleMania 27 when he defeated John Cena to retain the WWE Championship in the main event. A few years later they clashed again on the Grandest Stage of Them All when John Cena teamed up with Nikki Bella to defeat The Miz and Maryse at WrestleMania 33.
