He goes on and talks about bringing prestige back to the title.

He does it day in and day out, never being injured. Miz goes on and calls the fan cowards. The music interrupts and out comes Dolph Ziggler.

Ziggler says Miz is making some points but there's a reason fans don't get behind him – they can see through his crap.
