The Miz Hints At Surprise SummerSlam Appearance With Cryptic Message
Mike “The Miz” Mizanin may have a packed weekend ahead of him, but he is not ruling out making his presence felt at WWE SummerSlam. While speaking exclusively with The Blast, The Miz confirmed that he will not be at Saturday’s portion of the two-night event.
However, he quickly followed that admission with a cryptic tease about Sunday, making it clear that fans should not assume he will be completely absent from the weekend’s action. “And you never know what I’m going to get into. Just because I’m not there on Saturday doesn’t mean Sunday isn’t off the table,” he declared.
The Miz stopped short of revealing exactly what he could have planned, but his comments leave the door open for a possible appearance, surprise interruption, or another unexpected role during the show.
The Miz’s Packed Sunday Schedule Fuels SummerSlam Speculation
5He is already scheduled to take part in several WWE-related activities on Sunday, creating a demanding itinerary before the show even begins. “Trust me, I got a lot of things going on on Sunday,” he told The Blast, explaining how it will begin almost immediately after his flight lands, with an early media commitment followed by a WWE takeover event featuring opportunities for fans to meet Superstars.
“I have a bunch of signings, and then you never know what’s gonna happen on Sunday at the show,” he added. “I’ve got a lot of stuff on my plate, and I can’t wait.”
The Miz Is Ready For ‘Absolute Mayhem’ At SummerSlam
5The Miz may be keeping his potential role under wraps, but he had plenty to say about the matches scheduled for the weekend. “Let me tell you, some of the matches that are happening this weekend are special,” he told The Blast.
Among the bouts he highlighted was the Hell in a Cell match between Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar. Considering the dangerous environment created by the Cell, The Miz expects the confrontation to be one of the most chaotic matches on the card. “It’s going to be absolute mayhem,” he predicted.
The Miz also pointed to the showdown between CM Punk and Cody Rhodes, questioning whether the complicated dynamic between the two Superstars could influence what happens once they meet in the ring. “You have CM Punk and Cody Rhodes going at it,” he said. “Are they friends? Are they not friends?”
The Miz Makes His Pick For The Women’s Ladder Match
5The women’s division will also have a major presence during SummerSlam, and The Miz already has one Superstar in mind to emerge victorious. After pointing to the women’s championship match involving Liv Morgan and IYO SKY, he turned his attention to Sunday’s women’s ladder match. “Then you got Sunday, a women’s ladder match for a title,” he said. “I got Chelsea Green winning.”
Along with the women’s matches, The Miz highlighted Penta and Chad Gable’s battle for the Intercontinental Championship as another matchup worth watching.
Roman Reigns And Seth Rollins’ Rivalry Has Been ‘Brewing’
5The Miz also singled out Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, whose long-running issues will come to a head during the weekend. “Then you have Roman Reigns going up against Seth Rollin, which is a feud that’s been brewing and brewing and brewing,” he told The Blast.
The rivalry between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins stretches back to their time together in The Shield alongside Dean Ambrose. The dominant group’s run came to a shocking end in 2014 when Rollins attacked Reigns and Ambrose with a steel chair before aligning himself with The Authority.
Their history became even more complicated at WrestleMania 31. Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract during Reigns’ championship match against Brock Lesnar and walked away with the WWE Championship in a moment WWE dubbed the “Heist of the Century.”
The most recent match between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins came at WrestleMania 41 on April 19, 2025, when Rollins defeated Reigns and CM Punk in a Triple Threat Match. “It’ll be interesting to see what happens there,” The Miz added of the upcoming match.
Between the deeply rooted rivalries, championship stakes, and dangerous stipulations, The Miz believes SummerSlam offers plenty for WWE fans to watch across both nights. Still, one of the weekend’s unanswered questions now involves The Miz himself.
