Watch: 70,000 people boo The Miz at a non-wrestling event while he promotes the WWE show
A sight to behold! 70,000 people booed WWE two-time Grand Slam Champion The Miz during an NFL match between the LA Rams and Las Vegas Raiders.
The A-Lister has spent the majority of his WWE career as one of the most despised superstars on the roster. With his arrogant demeanor and shady ring tactics, The Awesome One makes it easy for the fans to dislike him.
Well, today was yet another instance when the former WWE Champion pulled a textbook move during an NFL game. The Miz is a massive Los Angeles Rams fan but proved to be a bit too smug with his support for the massive crowd's liking.
While promoting WrestleMania Hollywood, the eight-time Intercontinental Champion cut a promo during the match and talked smack about the Las Vegas Raiders and their fans. The crowd went insane and booed the former WWE Champion, prompting him to take to Twitter.
"70,000 people boo'ing, sounds like we're ready for #WrestleMania," The Miz wrote.

The Miz enjoys taking negative chants from the crowd
While The A-Lister has worked as a face in the past, it is impossible to deny that the former WWE champion is a much stronger, if not the best, heel.
This isn't the first time The Miz has enjoyed being booed by fans, and he took the adverse reactions as a compliment.
The two-time WWE Grand Slam Champion spoke with NFL anchor Rich Eisen on The Rich Eisen Show. He talked about how fans feel about him and how he finds their reactions endearing.
"The WWE Universe, our fans would not call me a gentleman. They would say I'm arrogant, egotistical, and the worst person in the world. Like when I walk out into the ring, people are booing me, chanting, 'you suck.' And that's a compliment to me," he said. [H/T - EWrestling News]
The former WWE Champion has exceeded expectations regarding what it takes to be a heel in the company. The goal of any heel in wrestling is to make the crowd hate and despise them as much as possible.
