In 2006, Chris Benoit told The Miz he could no longer change with his fellow WWE Superstars. The Miz, a WWE rookie at the time, had been accused of eating chicken over referee Scott Armstrong’s bag.
The latest WWE 24 documentary, available on Peacock and the WWE Network, focused on The Miz’s WWE career. The two-time WWE Champion gave his version of what happened when Benoit banned him from the locker room.
Kofi Kingston worked in WWE’s Deep South Wrestling developmental territory during The Miz’s early years on the main roster. He said he often heard “horror tales” about what the up-and-coming star had done to upset people.
The Miz didn’t return to the WWE locker room for seven months
Mark Henry and Zack Ryder said they saw The Miz changing in the janitor’s closet at WWE shows. The Miz added that he even had to use the same restroom as WWE fans instead of his co-workers.
Although The Miz did not mention Chris Benoit’s name, he went on to reveal what the former WWE Superstar said to him.
The man behind The Undertaker, Mark Calaway, is one of the most respected performers in WWE history. After facing each other on SmackDown, Calaway gave The Miz permission to change with everyone else seven months later.
