For the MITB, Alberto Del Rio, Sheamus, Randy Orton and Cesaro are already confirmed so, as of now, we have two spots to go. Regarding these four, can't say I am thrilled with ADR in it and I certainly thought BNB would have been in it rather then Sheamus but whatever.
As for the two remaing spots, I too wouldn't mind a Y2J return (would be cool to see him back) and I also wouldn't mind seeing Cody Rhodes, him definetely having the potential for such a match. The only thing about Cody is, I'm not sure if they plan to throw him into singles competition just yet with the whole Goldust thing going at the moment. And of course, there are also the cases of Cena and Bray Wyatt, each of whom could also easily participate, though in Cena's case I fear the rather boring in my opinion possibilty of him having a match with Kane due to his latest interferences in Authority business (helping the Shield this past week and interrupting Stephanie the week before).
I also like Lockard's idea about having two ladder matches at the PPV, one being for the vacated titles and one for the briefcase. I mean, they wouldn't just sacrifice the briefcase angle, would they?
In this case, six more spots would open and guys like RVD, Ziggler, Kane, Reigns or maybe even Christian could get involved.
Other then that, interesting to see who will be next to face Rusev. I suppose another matchup againt Big E should be out of the question anf going against "we, the people" probably wouldn't work at the moment (though as a storyline, with Lana and her political remarks on every show against Zeb, it may sound appealing) and besides, Swagger and Zeb are already busy with Adam Rose. So who's left and available? Big Show perhaps?
Ambrose vs Seth Rollins should be a lock, USO's likely to defend against Rybaxel, Diva's title blah blah and Paige retains, Bo(ring) Dallas first PPV match and that pretty much sums up the card.

Another spot was filled on Smackdown. If people ain't too picky about spoilers I can reveal it (or you can read the spoilers yourself)
Not a great line up for the MITB match at all. I'm baffled as to why ADR got a spot, but hey, at least RVD didn't get in. I'm not particularly fond of Sheamus (not even slightly) or Orton- but at least Orton has good reason to be in there. Would it be silly to assume that Cena's going to get a spot?
Personally I would have preferred Cesaro, BNB, Bray Wyatt, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and I guess, Randy Orton.

Agreed ^
Yes, I'm almost 100% sure Cena will be there, unfortunately.
Hustle. Loyalty. Respect. Turn heel.
That's all you gotta do, John. Come on, don't be a pussy!
I really don't hope they blow Ambrose vs Rollins here. Rollins' heel turn explanation was weak as hell, so having Triple H give him the Orton treatment is almost necessary. Put Rollins in the MITB match.

Now that we officially see who's actually in the Ladder Match, I'm calling Wyatt with the win and the title.
Of course, I reserve the right to change my prediction if they change the lineup.

I'm still hoping for Bray Wyatt to become champion. He has at least a 25% chance since I give Reigns, Sheamus and ADR zero chance of winning the title(s.) Wyatt doing his signature pose down on his knees with his arms stretched out, only this time holding a world championship in each hand, would make for a very profound image. If Rowan and Harper win the Tag Team Titles, they can stand positioned right behind Wyatt each holding up a tag team belt as well. What a great final shot to end the PPV on.
Yes, Wyatt's winning the titles, I agree. Only to drop 'em to D-Bry at SummerSlam. That's alright in my book.
First of all, welcome to the forums!
It's logical? Why, is it because of he'd already won this kind of match before (against Cena)??! No, it ain't happening. As much as I'd like Cesaro to win it, it'd be too early for him. But Bray, on the other hand, is logical. Shitemus, Del Rio and Cena Sucks can piss off.
Bray Wyatt is winning this thing. I'd have nothing against Orton winning, but it's not happening. Orton will be joining forces with Rollins to go against Ambrose/Reigns at Battleground, most likely.
