The WWE have made a name for themselves in the movie world with a spate of well-recieved action and horror movies, however that’s not the only types of filmic fare they’ve put their name to.

Mike "The Miz" Mizanin has followed a path in show business unlike any other. While most know him as a WWE Superstar, he got his start on the MTV reality show "The Real World" before taking a shot at professional wrestling.
Throughout his career he has been WWE Champion, fought in the main event of "Wrestlemania" and is now adding movies to an already impressive resume. His latest, a joint production between ABC Family and WWE Studios, is "Christmas Bounty" with Francia Raisa ("The Secret Life of the American Teenager").
The Miz sat down with Zap2it to talk about the movie, which premiered on ABC Family before releasing on DVD, as well as WWE's annual "Tribute to the Troops" and how "The Real World" both helped and hindered his career.
