“I got to break this up or Joe’s gonna kill him”: WWE Star The Miz Once Panicked After an Angry Celebrity Attacked Joe Rogan in One of the Ugliest Fights in Television History
UFC commentator and JRE podcast host, Joe Rogan is one of the cooler heads in the business. However, when he’s triggered, even he loses his cool. When Rogan was hosting Fear Factor in 2006, a shocking incident occurred. The presenter of Fear Factor, Joe Rogan, which challenged contestants to overcome their worst fears and win a $50,000 grand prize, had to deal with contestant violence, which led to a rather pathetic altercation.
In addition to being an amateur kickboxer, Joe Rogan holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Taekwondo, and Karate. He does regular mixed martial arts training despite not competing professionally. As a result, an average person wouldn’t mess with the UFC color commentator. However, during Season 6 of Fear Factor, one contestant didn’t mind getting into an altercation with the show host Joe Rogan.
The Miz Attempted To Break Up A Fight Between Joe Rogan And Another Contestant
While filming the reality show Fear Factor Season 6, host Joe Rogan, 55, felt forced to intervene when a female contestant punched a male contestant. An episode of the show featured a couple who failed to complete their task, and the other contestants taunted the female contestant. This agitated the female contestant, and she punched the other contestant.
Rogan responded immediately and said, “What are you doing, you can’t assault people. What he did is called strategy, you can’t run up to him and hit him.”
Rather aggressively, the woman’s husband confronted Rogan after hearing Rogan’s comments. Consequently, Rogan and the contestant began brawling. However, ‘The Miz,’ a WWE star also on the show as a contestant, jumped in to stop the fight because he knew Rogan would be much stronger than the contestant.
The Miz said, “They started going at it. And I was like, alright, I gotta break this up cuz Joe’s gonna kill him.”
Rogan also discussed the incident on an episode of his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, where he said that even if most of the fighting occurred off-camera, this would go down in history as one of the worst televised fights.
The Miz Got Some Big Praise From Joe Rogan
An episode of Joe Rogan’s podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, featured WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page as a guest and the Miz’s name came up as a topic of their conversation. Rogan made some very lovely comments about the Miz during their discussion.
There were moments when Rogan was hosting the show Fear Factor Season 6 when he got into a nasty fight with a contestant, and The Miz was also a contestant on the show as well who broke up the fight between them.
The Miz, according to Rogan, was one of the fittest contestants ever on the show. “That boy was a stud”. He then explained the stunt and what kind of athlete the Miz is.
Over 150 episodes of Fear Factor have been hosted by Rogan, who has witnessed several sketchy stunts.
