Grudge Match
Alex Riley vs. The Miz
Take this job and shove it! Alex Rileysuffered for months as the target of his boss’ ruthless remarks and cutting critiques. So, when The Miz finally terminated him with extreme prejudice, A-Ry was suddenly free to live out the revenge fantasy of employees the world over, unleashing a reservoir of frustration on his tormentor. Now, at Capitol Punishment, the once inseparable duo takes their rivalry into the ring.
The “bro-mance” began to fray in the wake of Extreme Rules. It was during that pay-per-view The Cleveland Screamer dropped his beloved WWE Championship to John Cena. The following night, he placed blame for his loss squarely on Riley’s shoulders, chastising him for not being at his side during the match. The situation further decayed when, during Miz’s “I Quit” Match at WWE Over the Limit, Riley attempted to use a recording of Cena saying “I quit” to help Miz prevail. When the rouse unraveled, the former WWE Champion once again pointed the finger of blame at his apologetic assistant before finally canning him on Raw.
The termination proved too much. A-Ry snapped and ferociously attacked his former chief with a cathartic thrashing. The following week, Riley not only refused to apologize for his actions, he reveled in his rebellion. And when Miz ambushed him during an interview, Riley turned the tables and pounded Miz once again.
Can the disgruntled former employee keep punching Miz’s clock? Or will The Awesome One finally give A-Ry the back pay he deserves? To catch all the action, watch Capitol Punishment live on pay-per-view on June 19 at 8/7 CT.
