Summary

Kit Wilson believes The Miz's career will not be fully appreciated until the day he stands at the podium for a WWE Hall of Fame induction.

Wilson made the comments while reflecting on his recent alliance with The Miz. Even with the pair struggling to get the better of Danhausen in recent months, Wilson made it clear he still sees Miz as one of the most accomplished stars of his era.

Quote from Kit Wilson

"I think The Miz will always get underplayed for how big he is in this company. The only time that man is going to get his respect is when he’s doing his WWE Hall of Fame speech and we get that video package right before, and then we realize, ‘wow, The Miz was the best thing that ever happened.'"

Wilson later went on to say:

"The Miz defeated John Cena in (the WrestleMania 27 main event). And thanks to The Miz’s mentorship, I stood in the ring toe-to-toe with John Cena on the grandest stage of them all. You can’t knock this guy. The Miz is top dog."

What Wilson's comments mean for The Miz

The Miz's standing in WWE has long produced debate, and Wilson's comments push that conversation back toward the scale of his résumé. By pointing to the WrestleMania 27 main event and Miz's longevity, Wilson is arguing that Hall of Fame recognition would force fans to look at the full body of work instead of the easy punchlines that have followed him for years.

Wilson also tied his own career progress to that partnership with Miz, which matters for how WWE presents him on television. If Wilson keeps leaning into that association, the endorsement reinforces Miz's veteran credibility while also giving Wilson a stronger place in the same orbit as bigger WWE names.

A future Hall of Fame speech could easily become part of that legacy conversation, especially with induction speeches themselves often treated as major career summations, something Demolition recently touched on while discussing WWE Hall of Fame speech time limits.
