As seen on RAW this past Monday night, WWE appears to be splitting The Miz and Maryse and pairing Miz with Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel. There have been some reports attributing the change to Maria and Mike Kanellis debuting on SmackDown due to some comments made by Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio. It should be noted that it wasn't clear if Meltzer was speculating about the split or was stating it as fact.
"The end result is that they're doing Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas as Miz's new entourage and they're dumping Maryse, I guess with the idea that because they've got Maria and Mike Bennett on the other brand, they don't want another husband and wife team or something?" Meltzer said. When asked if Maryse was done for now, Meltzer replied, "it looks like it."
Well if that's the case then they shuld have not signed Mike Bennett, given that he fucking sucks. Now they've broken up one of their hottest acts. What is Maryse going to do now? Join Dean Ambrose when everyone knows Ambrose is married to Renee Young and Miz and Maryse have been married forever. Her only purpose in WWE is to be with Miz so is she just going to leave now?
And why does Drew McIntyre, Bobby Roode, Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura, etc. all have to go through NXT but Mike Bennett doesn't.
Fuck this company they are so retarded. This is going to end up like when they split up Rusev and Lana. And breaking up Enzo and Cass was stupid too considering they were wicked over until they decided to just never put them on TV for no reason then break them up before they ever won a championship.

Lol. So one hand, you have Mike Bennett who didn't do anything memorable in TNA despite being the one that ended EC3 Streak and Mario who isn't just a bad mic-worker, she basically ruined the division by making every single female talent about her.
On the other hand, you have a WWE Talent who has shown himself with his wife to be one of the best thing going in the WWE for the last year
... WWE really gotta stop. They are even going to put some crappy TNA Midcarder over one of their best talents now ?!
Whilst I'm not the biggest fan of Bennett, I don't really have a problem with Miz & Maryse going from a couple to a faction.
Factions are easy to book and we don't are enough of them these days.
Did you read the report, Maryse is still going to be with Miz, its just a stable now instead of a duo... I am fine with that, also it gives Bo and Axel something to do too. So wins all round
So they are split so they can be replaced by a bootleg version? Fuck off, untalented group of apes.
I'm not against The Miz having a group but the initial reason is plain stupid.
Bo Dallas looks like a kid diddler with that shitty beard attempt. I just don't see Miz hanging out with guys like Axel and Bo Dallas. They should at least explain it as they were co-stars in Miz' most recent movie. But Miz should have added guys higher up the food chain, as I think this just lowers Miz rather than raising Axel and Bo.
And I say this as a Curtis Axel fan.
He should have hired The Fashion Patrol as his personal security guards, as police often moonlight as security guards. Or hired Ascension as his bodyguards. Worked for the Acolytes becoming the APA, they could have formed a new APA - Ascension Protection Agency. I mean Ascension are a rip-off of the Road Warriors, why not the APA. Also I think it would look pretty badass to put them in suits, but keep the facepaint.
One on hand, its cool that WWE gave Axel and Dallas screen time with their roles but these guys do not fit in with Miz's "entourage" in terms of appearance or characters. If anything they should be altered to fit with Miz's Hollywood gimmick.
Makes sense. Miz and Maryse is better than Mike and Maria in every conceivable way, and any comparison between the pair will always fall out in advantage of Miz.
Typical WWE, go with the worst option possible, when it could have been so easy as NOT signing Mike and Maria..
I was already hoping that's the reason, and I'm disappointed that I was right. Mike and Maria are horrible, whoever watched them at TNA knows that. People complain that Charlotte screams at the mic, well, wait until you hear Maria. She is even more agonizing because her voice is louder. Anyway, I expect Maryse and Miz to split, not a divorce, but with Maryse only wanting time for her, away from Miz, a face turn. Not everything should end in divorce. So she can manage some other woman.
I doubt the "entourage" will last long. Maybe a few months. Then you still have Miz and Maryse as the "It couple". Plus how long until WWE realizes that Lana is not going to do well as a wrestler and put her back with Rusev. Then they'll have three power couples...
I'm just happy Bo Dallas is getting another chance, man had his platform yoked out from under him with R-Truth breaking his win streak, he could've easily went on to win the IC strap that year during Battleground. Pretty sure people had him, Sheamus, Miz, and Ziggler pegged to win that battle royal, with him and Miz being the top candidates.
So despite the fact Bennett sucks and Miz has been with WWE for a decade and been on fire for the past year they're splitting Miz and Maryse up for Maria's ass...
I know this report says added to Miz/Maryse. But WWE sure seem to be splitting them up.
I do think the Miz/Maryse split is just a tease that will end after the Ambrose feud is done. The split tease will be either the reason Miz loses(protects him and gives him excuse for losing to Ambrose) or retains the IC title at Great Balls of Fire. Which will depend on what's planned for Ambrose and Miz next. If Maryse cost Miz IC title I'm sure they will make up on Raw a few weeks later. While if he retains the title, with help from Maryse, Dallas/Axel well all is right with the Miz. But I think the real reason they gave Miz a entourage is to make him stronger. If rumors are true that Miz will be feuding Reigns next.
Miz having Maryse, Axel and Dallas all cheating for him would make it more realistic that Miz has a chance to beat Reigns. Since Maryse helping him can only do so much. Maryse is enough to help him get through Dolph Ziggler, Apollo Crews, Sami Zayn, Kalisto, Cesaro and those types. But facing higher on the card guys, Maryse isn't enough to win. Which is why Ambrose(twice), Balor and Zayn beat Miz this year. While it took stupid stipulation, plus Maryse for Miz to beat Ambrose last time. So he's going to need more help to do it this time. If Miz does indeed beat Ambrose with help of his entourage. Well it just builds up Miz/entourage for the potential Reigns feud.
As long as they keep Miz and Maryse together I'm happy, taking the best heel combo on RAW apart and putting Miz with 2 jobbers just doesn't make sense.
Didn't they have a few power couples with both brands last year? Cena/Nikki, Miz/Maryse, Rusev/Lana, Ellsworth/Carmella and obviously not forgetting HHH/Stephanie. This is just ridiculous.
Im okay with Miz / Maryse being separated for a bit due to the 'tension' of the current storyline. I just hope that she's not going to be gone / pushed away for good. Maryse is soooooooo god damn good and brought even more of a spark to Miz and the current character, not that he wasn't great before, imo he's one of the best things going atm. As someone already mentioned, there's been power couples in the past at the same time, hopefully this is just a temporary thing while Maria / Mike come in to give them a bit of a boost and then Maryse / Miz are cool to reunite plus im all for helping get Axle and Bo back onto tv. In the mean time i think either little teases of a reunion with Miz / Maryse backstage in segments or him 'begging her to come back' like this past raw would be a good reminder in the meantime so their relationship isn't completely forgotten about on tv. I doubt Maryse would want to get back to being an in ring competitor, but why not in the meantime have her as a heel manager of someone like a returning Summer Rae? It would open up a place for both of them, insert summer back in storylines, and if anyone remembers the BFF's Summer is amazing with her heel work in catty female groups, the two would be gold together.
Surely this building to the shock forgiveness angle where Miz and Maryse reunite as she screws Ambrose out of the next match, Bo/ Axel as lackeys who may even have a mini fued with Heath and Rhyno as Miz continues to recruit him. With the long game being Miz and Maryse turning on them then fueding with another 'power couple'. Meltzer is just spitballing, when could be decent longer term. Miz has a knack of making his 'entourage' get over.
