The Miz was signed by WWE a year after he started wrestling on the "indy" scene and, well, he was no Bryan Danielson back then, that's for sure. After signing a developmental deal, it didn't take long for him to become one of the company's biggest stars and while he had a pretty underwhelming few years after that, he rejuvenated his career with a heated promo on Talking Smack aimed at Daniel Bryan.
Now, with Bryan able to wrestle again, the two longtime enemies will finally come to blows at SummerSlam this month. To further hype the match, The Miz has taken to Twitter to share a throwback photo to his "indy" days and makes it clear that he could have beaten Bryan even back then. That's up for debate but this is definitely a clever way to get fans even more invested in this ongoing storyline.
