The Miz is a changed man. ‘New Dad’ Miz may be the next evolution of the Hollywood A-Lister’s character. This week on Raw, The Miz joined the commentary booth and proceeded to completely overshadow the Seth Rollins vs. Finn Balor match in the ring.
Across three commercial breaks, Miz’s new fatherly persona stole the show as he repeatedly put over his newborn daughter Monroe Sky Mizanin.
Seriously, Miz tried to occasionally heel it up but his new Dad high took control, complete with a cheesy smile.
Hearing @mikethemiz on commentary gushing over baby Monroe on his “new dad high” has been my favorite part of #RAW ! So sweet! ❤️⭐️

Not to be out done, Rollins and Balor put on a great match while Miz talked about swaddling, changing diapers and lovingly looking into the eyes of his newborn baby girl.

Despite the action in the ring, ‘proud dad’ Miz walked the line of talking about fatherhood while Rollins and Balor tried to tear the house down.
"You can forget about the Bálor Club. I'm in the greatest club of all time: the Dad Club."

Only The Miz could turn being a Dad into his next evolution as a heel.
Seth Rollins would finally get the best of Finn Balor, winning the match with a vicious stomp in the center of the ring.

Rollins and Balor looked great on Raw, but what was up with Miz tonight? Is The Miz’s new Dad wrinkle to his character a sign of a possible face turn? Or does The Miz have the ability to turn just about anything in life into another reason to boo him?
