I didn't see a mention of 15 minutes, I'm pretty sure the reference prior to my comment was about 60 minutes.

I'd just as soon watch paint dry as see Miz do anything, including wrestle.
That said, they've made him an obnoxious heel best I can tell (matches vs Cena notwithstanding apparently). You can be obnoxious, you can cheat, you can be a bully, you can be uncontrolled chaos, you can be a coward, a sneak, a manipulative bastard, a backstabber, or a turncoat.
Still, in the end, there's only so many ways to make a guy a heel. I'd say the route they've gone with him is probably the one that's most likely to work with him. Whether it works or not, I thought one of the big arguments was that they should try to elevate more people into main event status and/or that pushes should be given time to work. Isn't what's been done with Miz largely satisfying both of those demands?
