Re: Huge news regarding Wade Barrett and why the MITB match was nixed.

If there's gonna be a MITB PPV, and Barrett is out for 3 - 4 months, won't he be back by July? Can't he just win the Money In The Bank at the PPV? Sure, it would have been more memorable if he won it at Wrestlemania but unfortunately that can't happen, so if they were planning on having Barrett win the briefcase, just have him win it at the PPV if he's back by then.

I'd still mark out like fuck if it happened anyway.

MiTB PPV...

Dolph wins Raw briefcase, Barrett wins SD briefcase....TNA is still better.

Barrett winning is a pretty obvious one too. If (when) Sheamus beats Bryan for the WHC, he obviously isn't going to be a transitional champ and a Barrett feud seems ready made for him.

I'd love a two month Wade Barrett vs Sheamus feud.

Re: Huge news regarding Wade Barrett and why the MITB match was nixed.

It wasn't totally big show's fault. He did throw Dolph a little hard but he didn't know Barrett was gonna get hurt. Although Big Show has been wrestling for 16 years so he should know how to throw people.

Anyway, here's what you do WWE. Have Dolph Ziggler win... Idiots

Amen.

No idea why Dolph is stuck in midcard hell AGAIN.

Because Jericho is back and the obvious money match is him vs. Punk. Dolph will go back to the ME once that program is finished. In the meantime, I wonder what he's going to be doing for WrestleMania?

'Taker and HHH got nearly an hour and The Rock's opening promo was 20 minutes.

This year I won't be surprised if 'Taker/HHH get more than an hour and Cena/Rock gets 40+ minutes. They definitely don't have room for MiTB with those times to work around, not to mention the myriad of commercials for their own product even though I just paid $70 for the PPV, inane backstage skits with Pee Wee Herman (or perhaps we can get a real celebrity like Jerry Mathers this year?) and 46.9999 Rock/Cena promos before the match takes place.

I'm honestly surprised they even have other matches on the card because at that rate, Jericho/Punk is going to get about 18 minutes and Bryan/Sheamus will get about 9.

Well DAMN! (Barrett)

credit EWN

Injured WWE star Wade Barrett (@WadeBarrett) posted a vague message about how long he'll be out of action and how long he'll be out of contact on Twitter:

"I am done with Twitter for now. See you in a few months."

Earlier this week, Wade Barrett had surgery on his dislocated elbow. Unfortunately, the injury is said to be worse than originally reported, so he is now not scheduled to return to the ring for 3-4 months. He will not be competing at WrestleMania XXVIII.

Multiple sources report that Barrett was supposed to be involved in a Money in the Bank match at the Pay-Per-View, and he was going to get the briefcase. Now that Barrett is out, the match has reportedly been scrapped.
......................
I would have liked to seen that with Wade winning .

Merged these three threads together since they all basically cover the same thing.

Oh he's obviously going to be on Team Laurinaitis.

I'm glad Wade got injured in a weird way. I don't want him to get his first world title with MITB, he has potential to have a big win! Have they ever had a British world champion before?

Davey Boy Smith came close to winning the big one a couple of times.

The One at Summerslam over Bret felt like the big one it was tremendous . But other than I woulda liked to have seen Regal win the big one once.

Davey Boy's win over Bret wasn't the WWF title but it was certainly bigger than the WWF title that night
