1. Enter the Royal Rumble and Win it All
This would be the ultimate way to put over the Miz. After losing the IC title that meant the world to him, Miz would face Dean Ambrose in a rematch perhaps. But only to lose once more. The irate Hollywood A-lister could either stay on SmackDown and fight for a shot at the WWE title. Bryan would continue to play up his issues with Miz.
He could request a trade to Raw but even that would seem improbable considering Bryan has made it clear that he wants to make things miserable for the Miz. Hence, this would the ultimate way for Miz to get back at Bryan without physically assaulting him. Being the sneaky heel he is, Miz could use whatever tricks from his hat to hang until the very end. After winning the Rumble though, he could announce he wants a shot at the Universal title on Raw and not SmackDown’s WWE title.

That would be the biggest blow to Bryan and team blue who has made Miz’s stay there an uneasy affair. Not only does such a move make Miz look like a snarky opportunistic heel, it also gives leaves something in the way of the Miz-Bryan Saga, should Bryan ever get cleared to compete. The seemingly improbable nature of this happening is the biggest reason why this could happen when the dust settles after the Royal Rumble.
