WWE Superstar and well-known Twitter user Mike “The Miz” Mizanin confirmed Saturday night that he was pulled over by a police officer.
“Just got pulled over. This always happens to me. Let’s see if I can get just a warning. Prob not though never that lucky,” said Miz regarding the encounter, presumably related to a minor traffic offense (such as speeding).
He later added, “And the verdict is in….not guilty. Well actually I was guilty but was let go with a warning. See there r nice cops out there.”
While getting pulled over for a minor traffic offense hardly impugns one’s character (especially when it did not even result in a ticket), Miz’s Twitter postings seem to represent the kind of publicity WWE wanted to avoid when it supposedly instituted its “directive” on controlled Twitter use.
