    Money_in_the_Bank_2014_poster.jpg

    There will be talk about who should win MITB in most threads from now on so why not start this one early so we have a place for that speculation.



    my go at predicting minus Kane cos I hope hes not involved (sorry Kane but it;s for the best)

    Wrestlemania rematch: If DB doesent defend the belt he forfeits it:
    HHH vs Daniel Bryan


    DB given the underdog role again but will retain thanks to Roman Reigns spearing the sh!t out of HHH as retribution for the MITB situation

    MITB ladder match:
    Ambrose vs Rollins vs Reigns vs Orton vs Cesaro vs RVD vs Kofi


    Rollins, RVD and Kofi to make this match be filled with great spots. Reigns built as the clear favourite but his Evolution baggage to get in the way as hunter screws him out of winning the MITB contract and instead Cesaro picks up the win and his push is restarted.

    John Cena vs Bray Wyatt
    I want it (this feud) to die even though I woulda preferred if Bray won the rubber match but I dont know what they will do after it and for some reason think itl get dragged out further

    US/IC unification match:
    Sheamus vs Barett


    DQ finish leading to the unification match taking place at SS under no DQ rules

    Tag titles match: Harper & Rowan vs The Uso's

    DIvas Title: Paige vs Cameron vs Naomi
    I shudder at the thought of Cameron in a title match so ive made it Paige beating th Funkadactyls together in a throwaway Divas bout to extend Paige's run

    Big E vs Rusev in a flag match or some such non-sense
    meh, Rusev will win again, he's the one receiving a push

    ----

    Pre show- El Torito vs Hornswoggle Wee-LC match
    Again El Torito will win and it will be surprisingly entertaining

    All i'll say about any Diva's match, leave the belt on Paige until AJ returns and then let AJ & Paige feud over the belt...

    AJ Lee/Paige feud > Better than Paige/Someone from Total Divas cast.

    Ziggler vs Del Rio in a MITB qualifying match tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89,006 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Surely there isn't only one ladder match at this ppv?


    I think we may see Orton/Rollins Vs. Reigns/Ambrose or all four could be part of the ladder match for the briefcase for a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Title


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ape Lincoln


    One title, one ladder match I would imagine? I'd prefer fewer participants, when it was 6 it worked in 2005. Any more is overkill.

    You would have to think Cesaro is a shoe-in but depends what they are gonna do with Rollins I suppose. Cesaro winning opens up possibilities with Bryan and (at a later date) Lesnar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,548 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    The whole thing with Bryan and the title will need to be taken into account while setting it up. I mean if it was just for the briefcase, then they could just give it to anyone and decide what to do later, but if it's for the title they'll have to have to have who they want as champ in it.
    So Del Rio being in it can be acceptable for the briefcase but as potential champion, nope. They at least need 2 or 3 guys who could be champ, just to keep people guessing, which means they can't tie them up in other matches

    The Bryan situation is legit since they don't know if he can work or not. I was pretty much calling for them to hotshot someone into the title picture and this gives them that option.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Cesaro's feud with Barrett doesn't exactly pave the way for him to be in the MITB match, which is disappointing.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,788 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I'd imagine Cesaro/Barrett would be encompassed into the MITB match tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'd imagine Cesaro/Barrett would be encompassed into the MITB match tbh.

    It's possible, but I wouldn't think likely given how Cesaro/Barrett/Sheamus/RVD have been circling around the 2 belts. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 4 way unification match possibly in the MITB format.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    1 MITB match for the case, 1 for the title. If Bryan is cleared, he retains. Otherwise it's easy to crown a new champion. Use the old 30 day rule if they need a reason.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Can't see Bryan not facing Kane. I'd expect the match to have a tonne of outside interference though to ease the burden on Bryan.

    If Bryan was losing the title he'd have lost it by now.

    Where there's a will (and there most definitely is) there's a way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    If Bryan doesn't defend the titles and they're put into briefcases I can see the world titles being split.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    If Bryan doesn't defend the titles and they're put into briefcases I can see the world titles being split.

    They need to stop chopping and changing between having 1 or 2 titles. I personally haven't missed the other belt a bit.

    The Ziggler cashin is the only great memory I have of the title since getting back into WWE about 2/3 years ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Keep one title imo. The WHC is damaged goods.

    I'd be surprised if DB doesn't make it and like it's been said, they can work around the injury as best as they can. I think they're just hedging their bets just in case.

    Rollins and Cesaro are the clear favorites for the MITB imo.

    Should be a good show anyway, Boston is always a good crowd and MITB is always a strong show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89,006 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    So far we have Randy Orton, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus and Cesaro in the ladder match for the WWE World Heavyweight title, so who else is likely to be added Cena, Lesnar, Kane, Bray Wyatt, Rollins, Ambrose, Reigns or HHH himself?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,788 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I'd love to see Cesaro win the title.

    But Jesus, I can't bare the thoughts of another Cena or Orton run....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF

    If Bryan is to get the title back upon recovery then it needs to be one of those two. Wouldn't do Cesaro or Reigns any favours to win the title and then lose it shortly upon Bryan's return.

    As per F4WOnline.
    We noted before that WWE was considering a second Money In the Bank ladder match for the MITB pay-per-view on June 29th.

    Apparently they were looking at announcing the second ladder match on last night’s RAW but obviously didn’t. Word is that the second ladder match, which will be for a future title shot, will feature up and coming talents while the top Superstars will be in the main ladder match that’s for the vacant WWE World Heavyweight Title

    Interesting, very interesting! Hopefully that will mean BNB can capture the briefcase and be a thorn in someones side for the next few months. Could you imagine the teases. Coming out after a match, holding the contract up and then "If you thought I was going to cash-in now then I'm afraid Ive got some Bad News!"

    Doubt they'll have Barrett hold IC and MITB.

    Was surprised enough that Sheamus is in the main match.

    And then when he does go to cash in....

    "I know you're hurt. I know you're in no condition to fight. But I'm afraid I've got some bad news!"

    Would fit his character so perfectly....

    Didn't Miz do the double with the US title a few years ago?

    The ones already named don't really seem likely, do they?
    Orton has had his time recently, ADR hasn't a hope, Sheamus is already holding a belt and while Cesaro is the most likely, he's not really heel enough for it, if he is to be the one holding it to face Bryan on his return.

    Bray, Rollins, Cena, HHH, Roman and BNB would have been my shout, with Rollins taking it in some sneaky manner. I though the Shield storyline didn't need a belt, but I can't think of anyone outside that feud worth it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    Perfect chance to make Kane champ for a few months IMO. Been a while, think he deserves a run.

    Maybe. Wouldn't really have been watching at that stage.

    Still, there are a good few credible options now. Bray Wyatt the ideal candidate for this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,417 ✭✭✭WinnyThePoo


    Did anyone see there's only seven spots.. So three left.
    Who do people think will be in the minor ladder match?. Rhodes, Ziggler, Sandow, BNB, Big E, Swagger and santino maybe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF

    No way. Which one of them would carry any kind of threat to the title, and not much by way of Kofi big spots potential either except for Cody.

    Rhodes, Kofi, Ziggler, Rusev, Wyatt, Swagger, Dallas would be my shout. Decent mix between big guys, and guys who will bring the big ladder moments.

    WWE need to look long-term and think how much the whole universe (not just the WWE universe) would mark out at the 'We're here' moment when Bray cashes in and wins it, and that is the idea of the briefcase after all, to create those moments. And Bray will be winning the title sooner or later anyway so this is a good route to it, there isn't many other potential entrants who you could say that about.

    Don't think Rusev will be in it unless he's going to win which is very unlikely at this point. Hopefully he stays undefeated until the feud with Cena (or did he lose a match by disqualification once? Anyway they could still say he hasn't been pinned).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF

    Probably a fair point, don't think he has lost at all. Just throw in Big Show or Ryback or another monster guy to make up the numbers for the dynamics of it all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Lets say the 8 are:

    ADR/Orton/Sheamus/Cesaro/Cena/Bray/Ziggler and Rollins(if you dont do Rollins v Ambrose)

    4 possible winners there imo.

    Do you do a 2nd match for the case? Rumours going around that they want to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ape Lincoln


    Did anyone listen to last night's/this morning's Wrestling Observer Radio? I thought I heard Dave Meltzer say he knew who would be winning the title but didn't want to spoil it. Unless I misheard him that is.

    Bo Dallas and Kofi too


    Is Ambrose Vs Rollins lined up for this ppv too?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,946 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    I'd say Ambrose v Rollins is a cert, they even had the commentators emphasising Ambrose above Reigns in the betrayal.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    They could have Rollins in the match and have Ambrose/Reigns run in and beat the holy hell out of him.

    Could easily see that happen.

    I don't think so just because of the timeline of the PPVs, they'll have Rollins v Ambrose at MITB, v Reigns at Battleground, allowing the much discussed Reigns v HHH (the supposed big one) take place at Summerslam. What Rollins and Ambrose will be doing at Summerslam I'm not sure, possibly against each other again, possibly involved in the HHH Reigns feud, or possibly Ambrose will have turned by then too.

    You're probably right.

    Rollins v Ambrose could easily overshadow the ladder match though.

    It's the best match I can think of right now with Bryan out injured. It will be absolute gold.

    Personally I think they could have left out Del Rio and Sheamus and really focused the title ladder match around the Shield's implosion by having all 3 of them plus Orton in it. Maybe they will still do that but it would leave no room for Cena so that's a no.

    I hope not. WHC is damaged goods and the brand extension is long dead.

    Have one guy(Cesaro) win decisively.

    Well I heard rumours that Triple vs Reigns will happen at Summerslam, but you would expect Rollins to take on both Reigns and Ambrose individually at some point.
    I had a thought that it could be Riegns/Ambrose vs HHH/Rollins, but can't see Triple H wrestling this ppv.
    I really really like Bo Dalla's gimmick. Would love to see his promo's coming up to the ppv.
    I can see Bray Wyatt and Cena being in the wwe title match as well. I don't expect either Reigns, Ambrose or Rollins to be in it.
    My card would personally be for the PPV ;

    Divas Championship

    Paige vs. Alicia

    Paige winner.

    Rusev vs. Joe soap

    Continues his winning streak, doesn't effect anyone yet.

    Tag Team Championship

    The Uso's vs. **** knows

    Rybaxel, with prime time and the real americans split up, NAO awol and well I'm not sure about the Rhodes brothers, personally if they split I'd want the match on Summerslam. I will put the Rhodes brothers in the M.I.T.B match. There's also no point in taking the titles of Jimmy and Jey. Personally Rybaxel are horrendous as a duo.

    M.I.T.B Ladder Match

    Golddust vs. C.Rhodes vs. RVD vs The Miz vs. D.Sandow vs. H.Slater vs. D.Mcintyre vs. Kane

    I'd either want Cody or Drew to win , tbh I've written this last and run out of idea's ha so its ****e and makes no sense.



    I.C Title

    B'N'B vs. D.Ziggler

    I like the I.C title, yes Barrett and Ziggler should probably be in the money in the bank match at least, but this could be a very good fued and keeps the title relevant, why push Barrett hard, I couldn't even see him win the M.I.T.B ladder match to be honest. Barrett wins anyway. This fued can continue.

    Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins.

    No outside interference. Rollins wins thus proving it was the right decision to screw over the shield, he's better than them yadadada. I could see the wwe throwing this match on a raw before the ppv with Rollins then taking on Reigns at Money In The Bank, personally I think it should be on a PPV.

    WWEHEAVYWEIGHTCHAMPIONSHIPLADDERMATCH

    Alberto Del Rio(how the hell did he get here)vs. Sheamus vs. Cesaro vs. Orton vs. Cena vs. B.Wyatt vs. D. Bryan

    D.Bryan wins, retains. This will be an absolute clusterf*ck of a match. Wyatts will come in and attack Cena, Reigns and Ambrose come in attack Orton. Bryan comes back on the night and retains.

    I'm not sure where the Wyatt/Cena feud is going in WWE, im not sure whos coming out of it and how it will end.

    I know this might come across as cheeky and all, seeing as the thread is clearly labelled and all, but is there any way the spoiler thing can be looked at in the PPV threads by those with the power.

    I would like to be able to talk about the PPV without someone posting inside info as to the winner, I dunno if other people feel the same or I should just avoid these threads.

    They're too short on main event wrestlers to even try to have two world belts of equal standing. The World Title having been the number 2 belt for years notwithstanding. They don't even have two separate TV shows of equal standing since Raw went to 3hrs and important stuff rarely hapoens on Smackdown.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    As much as you wont like it, Kane makes sense as short term champion. Triple H and Orton are busy. Cena is also babyface which would be a massive waste of Bryan's return afterwards. Rollins, Cesaro etc. all deserve a decent first reign rather than a filler reign like this would/will be. It's entirely their own fault that they have so few options. Better booking in recent years and the likes of Sandow or Ziggler could have stepped in for a couple of months to keep the title warm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    I think having Orton win is perfectly fine imo.

    He can hold it for 2-3 months til DB comes back and he can win it back.

    But i'd still rather have Cesaro win more then anyone else. Cena can never be discounted and if Rollins is in the match he could be a possibility also.

    If it actually gets out, a separate spoiler thread will be created. Being able to talk about an upcoming PPV for those wanting to view it as it comes is only right.

    I'll also mention that we'll do our best to make sure it doesn't get spoiled. Avoiding it on the internet/social media may make it near impossible especially as it's weeks away.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ape Lincoln


    Smackdown
    Bray Wyatt is in MITB


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    I figured he would be. Looking forward to some mad spots with the ladder.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,559 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Smackdown
    Bray Wyatt is in MITB

    So im guessing
    Cena will be in it now since are we even sure that their rivalry is over
