Before SmackDown’s opening bout between Daniel Bryan and The Miz could get underway, the self-proclaimed movie star berated Damien Mizdow for continuing to mimic his moves. His personal assistant managed to redeem himself, however, as he quickly fetched The Awesome One’s coveted Egyptian cotton towel. He retrieved this just in time to wipe the sweat off The Awesome One after Miz tapped out to Daniel Bryan’s “Yes!” Lock.
