I think it's about 50/50
He is gettin the belt back, either at MITB or they may drag it out until SS
I could even see them dragging it out until the PPV after depending on how they do things with AJ and Big E.

As much as I love Ambrose I just don't see him winning unless Rollins and Reigns pull double duty to help him. I'm actually ok with anybody but Swagger winning.

All faces in one MITB match, all heels in the other - I like the idea.
I could see Ambrose taking the case here. While it won't be immediate, this could be what really starts the breakup of The Shield. At first, it's just a good thing to know they have a chance to bring the WHC to The Shield. Then, Ambrose cashes it in and becomes World Heavyweight Champion. Eventually, Ambrose starts to behave as if the other two are just meant to act as body guards to him and protect him as world champion, and maybe this is after they lose the tag team titles and he scolds them for losing the tag team championships (treating them like they're just fodder, in other words.) And like a typical heel who recognizes the faults of others while refusing to see his own, he ignores the fact that he lost the United States Championship prior to cashing in the briefcase, although maybe there's a way to play that into the whole thing (Ambrose could have at least tried to help interfere when they lost the tag titles, whereas they DIDN'T come to his aid when he lost the US Title.... Or maybe they did, but they ended up costing him the title instead... accidentally, of course.)
This begins the dissension between them, as Ambrose begins to see it as being all about him rather than the three of them as a group. And Ambrose winning the briefcase at MITB could be the start of a long-term angle to all that.
Otherwise:
Swagger - No.
Caesro - No.
Fandango - Obviously a no.
Sandow - Not really.
Rhodes - Slightly plausible, but I doubt it.
Barrett - Maybe. My second pick. What other way to give him momentum after coming off one of the worst Intercontinental title reigns ever than to give him the briefcase to carry around?

Barrett won't pick it up despite being the best pick, Dean has this on lock and whilst I'm not a fan on paper I'll see how it plays out. It has potential.
Maybe that's why they changed his birthplace from Preston to Manchester. This is happening!
I'm gonna pick Cesaro. Swagger would turn face and start a feud against Zeb and Cesaro until Cesaro cashes in. Barrett would be the best pick. But after droping the belt and losing clean to Curtis, I dont think the E will give him the briefcase. I dont want Rhodes to win it. I mean, I dont want him to win it and then have a shitty reign like Ziggler's one. I want him to turn face. Fandango of course not and I wouldnt pick sandow.
