Former WWE Champion On His Unlikely Tag Team Partner
The Miz has commented on his unlikely partnership with Asuka on the WWE Mixed Match Challenge.
Proving opposites really do attract, the unlikely duo were undoubtedly the highlight of the inaugural event and even went on to win the tournament. Although they lost in the semi finals of Season Two to R-Truth and Carmela, they were still incredibly entertaining.
Speaking on New Day: Feel The Power, ‘The A lister’ discussed his partnership with The Raw women’s champion, Asuka.
“It was a random pairing, I don’t think I even talked to Asuka before we started working together on Mixed Match Challenge and all of a sudden they were like, ‘You’re with Asuka.’ We start talking, she didn’t understand what I was saying, I didn’t understand what she was saying, but someway, somehow, we just clicked. Speaking wrestling is a completely different language than English and Japanese. When we came together, we would speak wrestling and understand each other. She is so good at going off of something, she can feel an emotion and be able to relay that. I had a blast working with Asuka,”
Although they have since gone their separate ways, hopefully one day, we will see ‘The A lister’ and the ‘Empress Of Tomorrow’ team up once again.
Season two of Mixed Match Challenge ended in December 2018. It is unknown if the series will ever make a comeback.
