How do you feel about it? Was it well timed? Will he do better as one?
Personally, I think it was a good move by the WWE, since it's obviously lacking Faces right now. And Miz is pretty awesome ('pun' intended) anyway, so I'm very happy with this.
It should have happened ages ago. The crowd loves joining in with his catchphrases so I'm sure there are a lot of people who are dying to cheer for him. He doesn't look credible as a tough heel but I can imagine him working well as a sympathetic babyface that gets his ass kicked for most of the match. Still, I'm not sure if he's main event material, but this could be interesting if it's not just a set up for a swerve turn back to being a heel.

I'm glad Miz is face. They don't have to push him back to the top right away. Maybe they can pair him up in a tag team with someone like Zack Ryder. Their characters are similar: two good-looking but dorky guys with lame catchphrases. Or maybe Alex Riley once he comes back from injury. They had some pretty good chemistry, and could probably do a better job at saving the tag division than Kane/Bryan.
Been a huge Miz fan for awhile and if they really do turn him face then I'm excited. The man can be a megastar as a face. The fans nearly turned him face about a year ago when he was getting good pops, but they ruined it. Oh well. Hopefully this is a sign of a bright future for The Miz.
I wouldn't mind that. Please, just don't turn him into a super good guy, and is cheesy as fuck. I still want him to have some of that swag, and attitude he's become to be known for.
I'm hoping this is a swerve and he'll turn on Team Foley at Survivor Series leading Team Ziggler to get the win. I don't care about The Miz, I don't care if he's a heel or a face, I just want Team Ziggler to win this Sunday.
Re: Backstage News On Why WWE Is Turning The Miz Babyface
I think The Miz would be a natural as a face - he's a likeable guy and i don't think he will be as corny as the rest of the faces, he will still remain edgy at times hopefully. I didn't mind Punk as face at the start but i think Miz could be a good long term fix for that role and he could sneak into my fave 5 if he goes about it the right way and i usually HATE faces.
A little too random for my tastes, however, I've wanted him to go face for a while so hopefully he picks up some momentum to get over a fairly muted turn.
Doesn't really matter to me because I'm almost positive this isn't a face turn. He will turn on Team Foley at Survivor series by getting Kofi eliminated. Why would Miz team up with the guy thats been kicking him in the face repeatedly for over a month? Kofi is the only suspicious member of Team Foley too. He'll eliminate Kofi and set up a final Title match between the two.
Not sure how Miz would do as a face either. Plays the heel role very well. He has a heel face thats very easy to hate too lol. He did get a good reaction but he was in his home state and with Bryan & Kane. Bryan is arguably the most over person in WWE. Anything he's involved in gets a great reaction.
Been clamoring for him to turn face for months now. He's a funny guy that has a catchphrase that can get over. He should have turned face as soon as he came back with the new haircut.
I don't believe he's actually face until he comes out of Survivor Series not turning on his team. If he truly is face, then about time. He really needed a character refresh, and hopefully this is it.

It's a horrible move. He is naturally someone you just can't cheer for. The fact that they have to turn one of their promising young, heel talents "face" tells you that they have no clue as to what they are doing creatively.
It's not a face turn, he's screwing Team Foley on Sunday. Foley's been quoted in the past saying if he wrestles one more match, he'd like to face Miz. This could be the start of that.
Face Miz = Ratings. But most probably he'll turn on Team Foley at SS. Can't wait to see what happens.
