Owens gets some cheers because he's so good, but he knows how to get heat when he needs to, which is the important thing these days. If you put Owens against a good babyface, he knows how to get the fans to root for the babyface, even if they don't actually
hate him. If Owens is fighting Sami Zayn, even if the fans are chanting for some of Owens's stuff, you know that they're going to get behind Zayn as the match goes on.

The Miz is a really, really good low level heel wrestler. His character doesn't fit that of a top heel, he's not credible as a top heel and he just doesn't really work as a top heel. That's nothing against him as a performer. He's a very good performer that plays his role better than most on the roster. He's just found his niche. And it's at the bottom of the card.
