On the June 19 episode of "Raw", Intercontinental Champion The Miz approached Axel and Bo Dallas, offering to make them "the stars [they] deserve to be" if they become his entourage, and later that night, Axel and Dallas appeared in bear costumes during a in ring segment between Miz and his wife Maryse, attacking Dean Ambrose, thus turning heel once again. Axel and Dallas, now dubbed The Miztourage, began helping Miz in his matches and occasionally teamed him with him, including winning efforts against Dean Ambrose, Heath Slater and Rhyno on June 26 episode of "Raw" and Jason Jordan and The Hardy Boyz (Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy) at SummerSlam. At No Mercy, they also helped Miz to defeat Jason Jordan to retain his title. At WrestleMania 34 on April 8, 2018, Axel participated in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, but was eliminated by Kane. As part of the Superstar Shake-Up, Miz was moved to the SmackDown brand, while Axel and Dallas remained on Raw. On the April 16 episode of "Raw", during a tag team match, Axel and Dallas turned on Miz, ending their alliance.
