The Miz and Damien Mizdow were a professional wrestling tag team in WWE. The team's gimmick was that Miz was an arrogant movie star and Mizdow was his stunt double. Miz won the Intercontinental Championship once with Mizdow's assistance, and together they held the WWE Tag Team Championship once. Mizdow's impersonations of Miz won him a Slammy Award for the LOL Moment of the Year in 2014.

The Miz returned to Raw in June 2014 after a two-month hiatus, adapting the on-screen character of a Hollywood A-Lister. During this time, Damien Sandow had transitioned from his "Intellectual Savior of the Masses" character to a comedic impersonator, impersonating several celebrities, historical figures, and wrestlers. The team was created on August 25, 2014. Sandow then billed himself as Damien Mizdow and became the stunt double of The Miz, mimicking every move Miz made during his matches and mannerisms when not wrestling. At Night of Champions, Mizdow helped Miz to win the Intercontinental Championship from Dolph Ziggler. The following night on Raw, Miz lost the title back to Ziggler. At Hell in a Cell, Miz was unsuccessful to win the United States Championship against Sheamus, even though Mizdow was present. The fans soon started cheering Mizdow while booing The Miz.

At Survivor Series, The Miz and Mizdow captured the WWE Tag Team Championship by defeating the defending champions Gold and Stardust, The Usos, and Los Matadores, in a four-way tag team match. At TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs, they were defeated by The Usos via disqualification, but still retained the championship. On the December 29 episode of Raw, they lost the titles to The Usos. On the January 9, 2015 episode of SmackDown, Miz and Mizdow failed to regain the titles in a triple threat tag team match. At Royal Rumble, Miz and Mizdow challenged The Usos for the titles once again in a losing effort. Later that night, both Miz and Mizdow competed in the Rumble match with Miz entering at No. 1, but was eliminated by the returning Bubba Ray Dudley and Mizdow entering at No. 21. Miz would try to take Mizdow's spot, only for Roman Reigns to push him off the apron, allowing Mizdow to enter, where he would be quickly eliminated by Rusev.
