Time ran out for the Miz last night after he was forced to compete against Bobby Lashley in the main event on Monday Night Raw.
This storyline began just a couple of weeks ago when at the Elimination Chamber PPV, the Miz cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase to defeat Drew McIntyre. This followed McIntyre being beat down by Lashley in a deal with him, MVP and The Hurt Business.
In return for this favour Lashley demanded a WWE Championship title shot, and although Miz was able to dodge the Almighty last week, he wasn’t able to avoid a match with Bobby Lashley again.
After feigning illness at the top of the show, Miz then ran out of the second attempt to have a match and got himself counted out, before being forced to be in a lumberjack match in the main event. With nowhere to run Lashley was able to pick up the win and capture his first WWE World Championship victory.
