2011 | The Miz | WWE Champion / WWE Unified Tag Team Champion
I’ve always said that The Miz is an awesome talent and he’s finally getting to showcase that on SmackDown Live as there is not as much main event talent clogging up the peak of the mountain. If you get a chance, I would definitely watch The Miz circa 2010 / 2011, especially now all the episodes of WWE Raw are on the WWE Network.
Despite the fact there were such big names in the business at the time, Miz still managed to become a double champion twice during this period.
During an epic 224 day reign as United States Champion, The Miz teamed with Big Show to create ‘Sho-Miz’. Big Show had just come off the back of a successful tag team Championship reign with Chris Jericho and the pair managed to beat DX for the unified titles. This made The Miz a double Champion for the first time. He managed to hold on to his singles championship throughout this reign, as they then lost to The Hart Dynasty, who debuted the belts we now recognise as the Raw Tag Team Championships.

The Miz then won the big one. He cashed in his Money in the Bank against The Viper Randy Orton and claimed his first WWE Championship. He went on to headline a very underwhelming WrestleMania, but before he did this, he captured the tag team championships just one more time.
He did it with none other than John Cena and their reigns lasted less than a night as The Corre (remember them? Me neither…) Justin Gabriel and Heath Slater managed to win them back on the same show. Nice while it lasted and a good addition to the list but doesn’t have quite the punch his first reign as double champion did.
We jump forward in time now…
