Plus, it will also be an important match for his opponent on Saturday.

The Miz last won a match in December 2022

‘The A-lister’ is not having the best time in WWE right now. It has been six months since he won any match, let alone a title match in the Stanford-based promotion. His last win was on December 19, 2022, against Dexter Lumis in a Winner Takes All Ladder Match.

He defeated his opponent, courtesy of interference from Bronson Reed. The match also marked the ending of his feud with Lumis. His match with Rollins this Saturday will be at the WWE live show event, therefore, it is very less likely that the newly established title will change shoulders.
