The Miz Wanted To Drop The Intercontinental Title To The Ultimate Warrior At WWE WrestleMania

The Miz is the second longest reigning Intercontinental Champion of all time. The Ultimate Warrior one of the most famous names to have ever held the strap, and it’s now been revealed that at one point Miz planned for the two to wrestle for the title at WWE WrestleMania.

Miz revealed his dream scenario on a TikTok post, explaining how Warrior was his favourite wrestler when he was a kid:

"I would have to go through a gauntlet match... In the end when I defeated the last person in that gauntlet lumberjack match, what would happen? Ultimate Warrior's music would hit, and he would be the last person in the gauntlet match," Miz said. "He would run down, he would hit me with three clotheslines, do a splash and hit 1,2,3, and beat me for the Intercontinental Championship and I thought that would have been really, really cool."

Warrior had a tumultuous relationship with WWE, but mended the fences with the company ahead of a Hall of Fame induction at WrestleMania XXX in 2014. The match would never come to pass due to Warrior passing away days after his HOF induction, having not appeared in the company since Summer 1996.
