No, he never will. Look....at least someone like William Regal had a schtick to make his annoying character work. Mitzy doesnt even have that, he's just plain annoying. Annoying as fuck.
I cried when Eddie died. Literaly. I still give him a moment of respect on his anniversary and his birthday.
I will be deeply saddened the day Undertaker retires.
I will light a candle when Triple H retires
And I might even just give up when Batista goes.
I see no one else in the horizon going to their level. They crossed over to adults and kids alike. These new...."wrestlers".....are a joke. Mitzy the biggest amongst them. Fuck all they need to do is bring back Xpac and that other idiot Billy Kidman and make it a threesome.

I am thinking that is his schtick. Think about it... anyone who is that arrogant, that self-serving and self aggrandizing... it is nothing but annoying. And as you put it, that is what he is. So it is working.
But we are definitely looking at the last of a dying breed with the veterans in the current roster. Even when some of the younger guys rise up and take their rightful place, it will never be the same. But I still think they have something to show us.

I hear you...honestly. Or I should say hear what you're trying to say. But i dont buy annoyance for annoyance sake. Carlito....Regal.... The whole Right to Censor... even Melina, Ice, and Mighty Molly ...all were annoying. But they had something else. Anything, just something. Mizzy doesnt have shit.

Im afraid I cant. I can cite examples and shit but thats about it. Its just a "feel". They're annoying characters were never one dimensional, not even Carlito. I will admit that it might be touch of resentment on my part. I would have made a good team mate to Rey....in short (no pun intended) they told me Im too small and then they accept "THAT". Get the fuck out of here. GET the fuck out of here.

Understood.
I think Miz's it cannot be properly defined yet. Regal played on the aristocracy to the letter, and always made it a point to let the people know that he was better than them. And you got tired of hearing about it.
RTC's thing was that they knew everything, and that the people knew nothing, and it was shown in everything that they did by way of the straightforward matter-of-fact way that they conducted themselves... as if to say, "it does not matter what you want or say... we want it this way!". And you got tired of hearing about it.
The only thing that Miz does is keep talking about himself.
And you get tired of hearing about it.

I think the problem now is that they try to "force" guys into being a superstar. When you stop and think about the names we are mentioning they all have one thing in common..they came up threw the ranks of working the various wrestling areas in the country which gave them a chance to build their craft. You look at Sheamus and Drew McIntyre and I say "what did they deserve to get that pop?". Maybe it is part of getting older but give me Gordon Solie in a high school gym with 2 cameras over all this stuff now.

That is a great point. No one has to work for anything now. Guys used to go all over the country making a name for themselves everywhere, and when they were done, they would go to Mexico and Japan and pick up new stuff to add to their arsenal. These guys now? Honestly, I have no idea what they are doing... but they sure as hell are not paying the long dues.
Do you think they started to lose their bigger, more stable draws faster than they anticipated, and need to try to regain some ground in a hurry with new blood? Or, perhaps the economy is making them look to newer, flashier talent to bring in money faster or the company?
Whatever it is, their sense of urgency to produce is not doing them any good.
