Michael “The Miz” Mizanin and George Kittle – Ludically – Don’t get along.
In an exclusive interview with Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area at the American Century Championship in South Lake Tahoe, the WWE superstar explained why he holds the resentment against the star 49ers tight and excited his Cleveland Browns before their home game against San Francisco during the 2025 NFL season.
“”[The 49ers are] Go lose, “said Mizanin in Maiocco.” They will lose against the Browns of Cleveland. I’m sorry, Bay Area, I know you are huge fans of your 49ers beloved. But look at George Kittle, Brock Purdy, all the little 49ers, you will lose against the Browns of Cleveland, and that will happen.
“You do not think I forgot that George Kittle denominated me and helped Pat McAfee to fight in Wrestlemania?” I have a grudge. I have a grudge. What will happen is that I’m going to beat George Kittle here, then the Browns will beat him [in Cleveland]. “”
Mizanin is rooted very hard for his brown, and very hard against Kittle, because of this emblematic moment of WWE Wrestlemania 39 on April 1, 2023.
Yeah … Mizanin’s position is hilarious is right.
He shared more context with Maiocco on the withdrawal of Kittle.
“George Kittle, I thought we were friends; I thought he was a good guy,” Mizanin told Maiocco. “But come Wrestlemania, I organize at the Sofi stadium, 70,000 people present, millions who look at home. … [Kittle’s] In the crowd, he’s a fan. Pat McAfee comes out and says: “Hey, guy. I have no match, you have no match. I’m going to take you now .’… I see George Kittle Applaud Pat McAfee. What do you do when a person you think should encourage you is not?
“I pushed [Kittle] Bottom and says, “Sit and shut up”. And then I started to move away. And what is he doing? He jumps the barricade, and I turn around like: “What is this guy going to do?” And before I can even turn around, he makes me a clothesline, throws me into the ring, and Pat McAfee makes me fall, made me pin, one-two. Now, what would you do in this situation?
There is no way to get around this. Kittle did Mizanin Sale.
“Do you want to have a grudge? Would you be angry?” But guy, he did that. “
Fortunately for “The Miz”, he will have the chance to defeat Kitle – on green. A possible victory over Kittle would give Mizanin a certain tranquility of mind.
“Well, I’m going to beat him, so. Maybe if I beat him, we will bury the ax,” Mizanin told Maiocco. “Maybe I’m going to hit him with something out of 17, if I see him. Can you imagine me hitting him with a Skullcrusher finish on 17? ”
Mizanin added that Kittle, if he was seriously continuing the professional struggle, should go through “the MIZ” and would not last four seconds. And Mizanin concluded by jokingly saying that he was going to hurt Kittle, preventing him from playing for the 49ers.
