A Quote by The Miz

I was on 'Monday Night Raw' - and nobody realizes this - every time you go from 'Raw' to 'SmackDown' or 'SmackDown' to 'Raw,' it shakes up your career; it shakes up your life.
I do believe that Raw, SmackDown, and NXT are the three brands, and I think that people can come from Raw or SmackDown to NXT, and I think that people from NXT can go to Raw or SmackDown. It's very interchangeable.
I just look at like, if I'm doing 200 plus dates a year on the road with Raw or SmackDown, or I'm doing a manageable load of 30 to 50 matches with NXT - I can do four years of that in the time that I do one year on Raw or SmackDown.
It's really exciting to be able to represent the cruiserweights and go to Monday Night Raw. I grew up watching Monday Night Raw, and it's really a big dream of mine to perform on that stage.
When I originally debuted in 2011, I was on 'SmackDown.' At the time, they were separate from 'RAW,' so I feel at home on 'SmackDown.'
My life used to be governed by that. I would know what day it was because I would be at 'Monday Night Raw' or 'SmackDown' on Tuesday.
I think 'Raw' is complacent in the fact that 'Raw's' been the flagship of WWE. 'Smackdown' wants to be number one.
'SmackDown,' I feel, has more excitement than 'Raw,' even though 'Raw' is always branded as the flagship show.
I love the fact that 'Total Divas' reaches a different demographic than the normal fan base or audience that typically watches 'WWE Monday Night Raw' or 'SmackDown.'
I was into 'Crash Bandicoot.' 'Croc.' I loved 'Twisted Metal.' And as far as the WWE and wrestling games? All of them. I played 'SmackDown! Just Bring It' and 'Smackdown vs. Raw.'
The thing is that, not only do you learn so much about being in front of a camera and stuff being on 'Monday Night RAW,' but at the same time, I'm not really acting on 'Monday Night RAW.'
I'm a lot happier on RAW. I actually can't overthink how much better I think I am on RAW than I was on Smackdown. And I don't really know the reason why that is. I feel like I look more at home here, and I feel like I look like I belong here. It's pretty obvious that RAW's the place for me.
Something that's interesting with season two of 'Total Divas,' Fandango and I's relationship has been on the surface level, as far as WWE programming with 'Monday Night Raw,' 'Main Event,' 'Friday Night SmackDown.' You see us on camera and that's about it.
The meshing of the brands is great. I think it brings excitement. It brings anticipation of not knowing who's going to be on 'Monday Night Raw' or on 'Tuesday Night SmackDown' so I think it's really awesome.
I can't count how many times I've heard a wrestling fan say they don't have enough time to watch 'Raw.' Maybe it's less about not having the time to watch a three-hour show, but it's more about the time and the patience. You can usually sum up your three-hour 'Monday Night Raw' in a five-minute conversation.
You never know, I could show up on a 'Monday Night Raw,' I could come down to 'SmackDown Live' and snatch that title real quick. Never leave me out, you never know what's creeping around the corner, if you know what I mean.
I think you should start the first 90 minutes of Raw with a Paul Heyman promo and the second 90 minutes of Raw with Brock Lesnar wiping out the entire roster. But then again, that's my vision for Monday Night Raw.
