The Miz has admitted that he’s unsure if he’ll even be on the card for WWE SummerSlam, which is set to take place in his hometown.
SummerSlam 2024 is less than a month away, with the Biggest Party of the Summer set to emanate from the Cleveland Browns Stadium on August 3.
While a number of matches are coming together The Miz, who grew up in Cleveland, doesn’t currently have a match announced for his hometown return.
Speaking with TV Insider, The Miz admitted that he doesn’t know if he’ll have a match at SummerSlam.
Addressing WWE’s current premium live event model, The Miz noted:
“Triple H is one of the best minds this business has ever seen. The way he is able to not only do what he is doing right now, but he is there as a resource… If I need to know what we are looking for in a match, he would be able to tell me in-depth what he is looking for and how we can get the crowd to gravitate toward the storyline.
“The energy in the locker room is unbelievable because wrestling has never been so hot. If you look at it, think of all the top stars right now. I love what we’re doing with these PLEs (Premium Live Events) where we’re having five to six matches.
“There are longer matches with storylines that have been built and are ready for a PLE. You look at SummerSlam now. It’s at the Cleveland Browns stadium. I don’t know what I’m doing, and it’s in my hometown. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I don’t think we will ever go back to that stadium because they might get a new stadium.
“This stadium that I have grown up watching the Cleveland Browns games in, I don’t know if I have a match. You look at the storylines right now, and it’s insane how good they are… It’s very tough to get on a PLE now. You have to be on the top of your game. I understand more than anyone because I’ve been here for 20 years.
A major WWE star is expected to be back by SummerSlam, which you can read more about right here.
