Miz TV with Guest Kurt Angle

The Miz and The Miztourage are in the ring for another edition of Miz TV. Curtis Axel is in a neck brace. Miz says before they get started, he has a message for his opponent at Survivor Series, Baron Corbin. For those that don’t know, they’ve been going back and forth on social media. Miz told him if he ever talked about his pregnant wife again, he’d knock his teeth down his throat. Not only did Corbin talk about his wife, he talked about his unborn daughter. Corbin told Miz he’d be calling him “Daddy” after Survivor Series. The crowd chants, “Who’s your Daddy?” Miz says when he speaks, it’s from the heart. Corbin makes “Daddy” jokes. This isn’t the independent leagues. Corbin needs to step up to the plate. Miz doesn’t earn respect — he demands it. While Corbin may be the bathroom break of Smackdown, he’s the whole damn show of Monday Night RAW. At Survivor Series, Corbin better bring his A-game. At Survivor Series, he’ll beat Corbin so bad him and his title will become relevant.

As badly as he wants to get his hands on Baron Corbin, his guest just as badly wants to get his hands on Shane McMahon. His guest is the RAW General Manager and Team Captain at Survivor Series, Kurt Angle! Angle comes out to a huge reception while the crowd sings, “You suck” to the beat of his music. Angle says despite their differences, he has full support with The Miz. Miz says he can’t say the same to him. Angle says if anyone knows what he’s capable of in the ring, it’s The Miz… or did he forget the TLC PPV? Miz remembers Angle abusing his power to have one last ride of glory with The Shield. Miz also remembers Stephanie McMahon saying this: a replay is shown of Stephanie McMahon telling Angle he’s the Team Captain of RAW at Survivor Series. She expects victory. If she doesn’t get what she wants, she’ll find a new General Manager. Angle says he’s not going anywhere. This is Monday Night RAW, the longest running episodic show in WWE history. They’re about to celebrate their 25th anniversary. They have the best show and fans. Smackdown has had a good run of 18 years, but Shane McMahon has an inferiority complex because that show is the B-show. At Survivor Series, they’ll prove that. Miz asks if he’s forgotten about Smackdown’s brutal siege: replays are shown from two weeks ago of Smackdown invading RAW and destroying the roster. Angle retaliated by sicking Kane on Daniel Bryan last week. Miz says he wouldn’t be shocked if Smackdown came here tonight again and put them under siege. Angle says it won’t happen. Angle didn’t have anything to do with Kane’s attack of Daniel Bryan. Angle apologizes to Bryan for the attack. A “YES” chant picks up. Miz finds that hard to believe.

The moment Stephanie McMahon threatened his livelihood, Miz saw the cutthroat Kurt Angle come back. Angle planned to eliminate Bryan like he planned to get rid of The Miztourage. Miz accuses Angle of orchestrating the Braun Strowman attack. Curtis Axel wasn’t so lucky in that attack. Angle says that isn’t going to happen. Miz puts his hand up to silence Angle, so he pops up angrily. Miz immediately backs off. Miz says if Angle had nothing to do with Strowman’s attack, why did he get rewarded with a spot on Team RAW. Angle says it doesn’t have to do with the attack. Strowman’s only demand was a match tonight… against The Miz. The crowd loudly pops and starts up a “YES” chant. Miz drops to his knees trying to beg off the match, but Angle declines.

Elias is sitting in the ring without his guitar, since it’s on the pole. Elias says he is destiny manifested. Elias says he feels naked because one of his babies is already taken up to the sky and put on the pole. Every guitar he touches is special. Last week, Jason Jordan went and crushed one of his cherished instruments, but that won’t stop him from giving them a song tonight. Elias asks for requests and asks if they want to hear “Wonderwall.” Too bad because he has an original song. Elias sings about how he despises Manchester and the children are future losers. Jason Jordan interrupts the “song.”
