School / College / University

He went to Normandy High School in Parma, Ohio, where he wasn’t just a student—he was a leader. He captained both the basketball and cross country teams, already showing signs of the drive and confidence he’d later bring to the spotlight.

After high school, he studied business at Miami University’s Richard T. Farmer School of Business. While there, he joined Theta Chi fraternity, gaining a taste of campus life and leadership. But books and business plans soon gave way to a bigger dream—wrestling—and he left college to chase it with everything he had.

Religion

Christian

Race / Ethnicity

On his mother’s side, he has Greek ancestry through his maternal grandfather, adding a Mediterranean spark to his background. His father’s lineage brings in a mix of Slovak and Romanian heritage, tracing back to the old Austria-Hungary region—territory that’s now split between modern-day Slovakia and Romania. There’s also a touch of German and English ancestry woven into the family tree.

Food Habits

The Miz sticks to a clean, performance-driven diet that’s all about staying lean, strong, and ready for the ring. He follows a strict gluten-free, dairy-free, and soy-free meal plan crafted by The Paleo Chef, Mary Shenouda, hitting around 2,700 calories a day—about 50% protein, 30% carbs, and 20% fat. It’s a high-protein setup designed to fuel muscle and energy, and yes, he tracks his weight weekly to stay dialed in.

Even on the road, he keeps it tight—bringing prepped meals and clocking in around 2,300 calories a day. He often eats between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m., sticking to intermittent fasting. Sure, he’ll enjoy a treat here and there (he’s human), but his focus is on consistency.

Hobbies

When he’s not in the ring or on camera, The Miz finds his peace on the golf course. Golf is more than just a game for him—it’s a mental reset. He loves the challenge it brings, the precision it demands, and the calm that comes with being out in nature.

What makes it even better? Sharing that time with his daughters. Whether they’re walking the course together or spotting squirrels, deer, frogs, and tadpoles along the way, it’s quality family time wrapped in fresh air and quiet moments.

Tattoo

The Miz stands out in a world full of inked-up superstars—because he doesn’t have a single tattoo. Not one. And that’s entirely by choice. While many wrestlers wear their stories on their skin, The Miz has always preferred to keep his clean-cut look.

He’s been clear about it, too: he has no plans to ever get a tattoo. Even when asked what kind he might consider, he shuts it down. For him, tattoos just aren’t part of the brand—or the man.

Girlfriend and Dating History

Maryse Ouellet (2008–present)

The Miz and Maryse’s love story started in 2006 during the WWE Diva Search, where he was hosting and she was a contestant. Maryse didn’t win the contest, but she definitely left a lasting impression—especially when The Miz asked her to cut a promo in French after she stumbled through English. It was awkward, funny, and oddly charming. They didn’t start dating right away, but that moment sparked something. About a year later, after a WWE event, they reconnected—and this time, The Miz made his move.

Fast forward a few years, and their connection turned into something real. They tied the knot in the Bahamas on February 20, 2014, and now share two daughters, Monroe Sky and Madison Jade. The couple doesn’t just share a home—they share the spotlight. From WWE storylines to their hit reality show Miz & Mrs., they’ve built a life full of laughs, chaos, and a whole lot of love.

Net worth 2025

$15 million

As of December 2025, it’s estimated that The Miz has a net worth of about $15 million. He earns from WWE contracts, reality TV, acting, endorsements, and smart investments. Let’s break it all down.

1. WWE Salary – The Main Event Moneymaker

The lion’s share of The Miz’s income comes from his long-standing career with WWE. Since joining the company full-time in the mid-2000s, he’s gone from rookie to headliner.

Estimated WWE salary: Between $1.2 million to $2.5 million per year
Breakdown includes:
- Guaranteed base salary (reported to be ~$1.2M–$1.5M annually)
- Pay-per-view and televised event bonuses
- Performance-related incentives
- Royalties from merchandise sales and video games (including the WWE 2K series)

Unlike part-time legends who show up a few times a year, The Miz is consistently featured on weekly programming, from RAW and SmackDown to WrestleMania—earning bonuses along the way. Add in his merchandising presence (shirts, action figures, appearances in games) and you’re easily looking at over $2 million per year from WWE alone.

🧠 Fun fact: He’s one of only a handful of Superstars to hold every active male title in WWE history—proof of both his longevity and backstage value.

2. Reality TV – ‘Miz & Mrs.’ and the Return of the Reality King

Before he was a WWE superstar, The Miz was just Mike from The Real World: Back to New York. That MTV fame launched his TV personality—and he hasn’t looked back.

Miz & Mrs. (USA Network) premiered in 2018 and follows Miz and his wife, former WWE star Maryse, in their everyday chaos.
Each season reportedly earns the couple mid-to-high six figures, and with solid ratings across multiple seasons, it’s clear this isn’t just a side gig—it’s a well-paid extension of their brand.

On top of that, Miz has hosted shows like Cannonball (a summer game show on USA), making him a go-to personality when WWE talent branches into mainstream entertainment.

💸 Estimated annual earnings from reality TV and hosting: $200,000 – $500,000+

3. Acting Career – WWE Studios and Beyond

The Miz isn’t just a performer inside the squared circle—he’s also taken his talents to the screen. His best-known film work includes several action-packed WWE Studios productions, where he took over The Marine franchise.

The Marine 3–6: He starred in four installments of the popular series.
Other appearances include Christmas Bounty, Santa’s Little Helper, and a cameo in Fighting with My Family.
He’s also appeared on TV shows like Psych, Supernatural, and game shows like Wipeout and Ridiculousness.

While these roles aren’t blockbuster-level in terms of income, they’re steady. For direct-to-DVD or cable releases, top WWE talent like The Miz can earn $50,000 to $150,000 per film depending on the scale and contract structure.

🎬 Estimated acting income per year: $50,000 – $200,000

4. Endorsements, Sponsorships & Appearances

The Miz’s charm doesn’t just work in front of a wrestling crowd—it plays well in boardrooms, too. Over the years, he’s inked deals or made appearances for various brands, including:

WWE-sponsored products (like Mattel, 2K Games, Snickers)
Fitness and nutrition-related brands (he’s a former Bodybuilding.com ambassador)
Paid appearances at fan conventions, Comic-Cons, and pop culture expos

He and Maryse have also partnered with brands on Instagram and featured sponsored content on Miz & Mrs.

💼 Estimated yearly earnings from endorsements and public appearances: $100,000 – $300,000+

5. Real Estate Investments

Outside the ring and the spotlight, The Miz has also made smart moves in real estate. He and Maryse have bought, renovated, and sold luxury homes in California—particularly in Los Angeles and Austin.

Their former $6.4 million mansion in Thousand Oaks, CA, sold in 2022, was a major real estate highlight.
The couple moved to a new luxury home in Westlake Village, continuing their investment strategy in high-end properties.

While it’s hard to quantify exactly how much they’ve profited from real estate deals, it’s safe to say that real estate contributes occasional six-figure gains to their financial portfolio.

6. Video Games and Voice Acting

As one of WWE’s most recognizable faces, The Miz is regularly featured in:

WWE 2K video games (yearly appearances)
WWE mobile games and advertising campaigns

Voiceover and likeness rights come with royalty checks—often a small percentage per sale but with enough volume to add up over time.

🕹️ Estimated yearly earnings from video games/royalties: $25,000 – $100,000
