Carmelo Hayes and The Miz Alliance is Over – The partnership between Carmelo Hayes and The Miz has officially come to an end. On the October 3 episode of WWE SmackDown, Hayes told Miz directly that their alliance was over, confirming the growing tension between the two.
The decision came just one week after The Miz and Hayes teamed up in a number one contenders match for the WWE Tag Team Championships against The Street Profits. During the match, Hayes stood by as Miz was pinned by Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins, which cost them the opportunity. When Miz later confronted Hayes about not helping him, Hayes coldly replied that Miz should have kicked out.
The situation escalated further on SmackDown when Hayes attempted to challenge Sami Zayn for the WWE United States Championship. Before he could make any progress, Miz blindsided him with a brutal attack, knocking him out cold. This opened the door for Aleister Black, who then stepped in and took Hayes’ place in the match.
With Miz’s assault and Hayes’ earlier declaration, the split is now official. While the two had shown flashes of chemistry in recent weeks, their relationship quickly unraveled, and the betrayal leaves both men heading in separate directions.
Given Miz’s attack and Hayes’ desire to move into championship contention, a direct confrontation between the two inside the ring now seems inevitable. Whether their issues are settled on SmackDown in the coming weeks or on a larger stage remains to be seen, but one thing is certain—Hayes and Miz are no longer allies.
