The WWE universe knows well enough the volley of surprises that The Miz, one of the most celebrated WWE Superstars, can pull off within and outside the squared circle. The latest of these being his convincing impersonation of fellow wrestler LA Knight making even the backstage crowd second guess.

Revisiting this iconic impersonation during a conversation with TNT Sports, The Miz gleefully recalled how he successfully fooled many behind the scenes. “It’s funny, backstage, when I was kind of going over my head and kind of getting his voice – like I was trying to get into the character, so I had all this stuff on, people were mistaking me as LA Knight,” said The Miz, basking in the success of his elaborate joke.

What took the surprise further was the revelation of people questioning Knight’s unexpected appearance at the venue. “They’re like, ‘What’s LA Knight doing here?’,” chuckled The Miz, now certain of his impersonation mastery.
