Where is Miro?
By Scott Keith on 1 March 2024
Is there a more confusing and curious situation than what the heck is going on with Miro? They could write a book about his run in AEW, and in wrestling overall. Pushed great in WWE at first, including consummating his relationship with Lana in a freaking tank at mania. Then he famously fell out of favor with Vince, who was pissed when he ruined an angle they had going with Lana and Dolph when he proposed to Lana and they supposedly leaked it to TMZ. He sat on the sidelines alot after and seemed a bit injury prone when he did come back. We can all forget about the Lana, Bobby, Liv, and Rusev angle, even though the wedding segment was won of the highest rated segments of the last decade.
He finally gets released and seems to fine to a perfect home in AEW. Unfortunately his first year is very forgettable with the run as a dumb gamer guy basically involved with jobbers like baghead guy. Finally he hits gold when he starts fighting with God as the redeemer and goes on a massively successful run, where he is a great TNT champion and looks primed for heavyweight title run. Then for some insane reason he jobs to Sammy of all people, supposedly has a hurt hamstring, and since then we have all been wondering where is Miro.
He has popped up a few times, including a bit part in a TV show where he was killed immediately. Tony and others will say he is hurt, but he regularly disputes it. At one point, they try to bring him back for a tournament and he refuses to job for it, which I don't blame him, because they didnt seem to have any follow up plans. There is talks of creative disagreements. He seems happy to sit around and get a paycheck. Doesn't really seem like he is scared of Tony cutting him. I assume he knows if they fire him HHH will scoop him up. Recently, Tony plans a Meaty men's match but has to cancel it because there aren't enough Meaty men healthy enough to compete. Which is prob something Tony should have confirmed before advertising it. Miro said today he been hurt since Sept and got it fix in January, sorry if Tony wasn't aware. Seems like things maybe aren't fine with Miro. Should Tony cut his loses with him, or is there a road back to salvaging things with Miro, and is it even worth it? He clearly couldn't even survive one feud with Hobbs without getting hurt.
Obviously the man is very unhappy and they should probably just cut their losses and get it over with. Although I bet the injury is related to him likely not winning the Meat match at the PPV. Just a hunch.
