– Below is new backstage video of The Miz talking to Dasha Fuentes after he and Shelton Benjamin lost to Randy Orton and WWE United States Champion Jeff Hardy on this week’s SmackDown.

Regarding recent comments from WWE Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins about the rough WWE schedule, Miz rants about what he did for the title and says he is still the workhorse of WWE. Miz says they are all on the WWE schedule but he’s also busy doing many other things. Miz says he lost the Intercontinental Title because of those other things but he’s focused on just one thing for Backlash this Sunday – getting the Intercontinental Title back around his waist and that will happen.
