Though the majority of the Superstars on this list were bullied during their youth, The Miz is a much different case. Joining the WWE in 2004, many Superstars felt the former reality TV star didn't belong in the company and targetted him to drive Miz out of wrestling.

The bullying campaign against him was apparently led by Chris Benoit, but taken to another level by JBL who loved to haze him and bully him in front of the camera and in real life as well. After spilling crumbs on a Superstar's bag, The Miz was kicked out of the locker-room for six months, and was forced to change in any private spot.

Undeterred though, The Miz continued to move forward, becoming WWE Champion in 2010 and proving himself in front od everyone who had doubted him wrong.
