The Miz said that he had no clue as to why CM Punk targetted him. There have been reports which suggested that CM Punk was set to main event WrestleMania 27 before that spot was given to The Miz.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what the &#8216;Must-See&#8217; Superstar had to say about his alleged heat with CM Punk:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&ldquo;I have no idea to be honest with you. Like, I still to this day have no idea. To be honest, I thought we were friends. And it&rsquo;s just like one of those things where you&rsquo;re like, &lsquo;God, man.&rsquo; I don&rsquo;t know. I just don&rsquo;t know, like I really don&rsquo;t. I wish I could answer any of the questions that you would have about that, but I honestly &mdash; I don&rsquo;t know. I don&rsquo;t get it. I don&rsquo;t get him.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>The Miz didn&#8217;t get respect as the WWE Champion<\/h2>\n<p>The Miz also talked about his current Tag Team with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/player\/john-morrison\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">John Morrison<\/a>&nbsp;and not getting any respect when he headlined WrestleMania 27. The Miz said that he never got any respect even as the WWE Champion and people continued to talk behind his back.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;d say getting better is definitely the word. Yes, John Morrison taught me a lot when I first started. Getting respect? Hell no. I didn&rsquo;t have respect when I was WWE champion. I was in the main event for WrestleMania for that matter. People were still talking like I didn&rsquo;t deserve to be in that spot, &lsquo;I should&rsquo;ve been in that spot!&rsquo; &lsquo;Blah blah blah!&rsquo; Let&rsquo;s put it this way: There was no one that generated more heat, more bad guy like oriented couldn&rsquo;t stand you heat if you will than me at that moment.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Miz has gone on to become one of the most well-respected members of the WWE locker room.
