Smackdown MITB participants (SPOILER)

[seabs]

Maybe that's why they changed his birthplace from Preston to Manchester. This is happening!

Please don't offer me that false hope.

For the secondary briefcase it seems like they have a trend of wanting someone to come out of nowhere to win it. Yeah Ziggler was awkwardly stuck in the title picture last year due to injuries but he didn't seem ready at the time from a booking standpoint. Bryan was surely filler in his match, and while the Miz made sense to win he surely wasn't the favorite that year with Jericho, Edge, and Orton in the match. Based on trends I don't see Ambrose winning, my money's still on Wade.

*Anyone but Swagger, anyone but Swagger...*

 

[BaraaKhalaf92]

WOW So unpredictable, the only 2 that I can exclude from that list are Fandango and Swaggie, all other 5 are candidates imo.

 

[THG?]

I keep on forgetting Bryan won the briefcase before.

 

[Rysenberg]

IMO it'll be Cesaro.

 

[Dat Kid1]

No Langston, really? He's just going to stay as Ziggler's bodyguard? Seriously?

Guy hasn't even had a midcard title shot, why should he be in MITB

 

[Dat Kid1]

Hard to pick who'll win in this one. I would have my money on Rhodes, Barrett, or Cesaro. However is Kofi actually injured because there could always be a last minute swap.

 

[Nano]

Rhodes will get a push. I'm going with him

Being in a MITB match isn't exactly some high honor. Last year had Tensai, Kidd, newcomer Sandow, Santino and Sin fucking Cara in the match.

Year before had Alex Riley and Evan Bourne, Gabriel and Slater in the other.

Sandow was actually great during his debut. Kidd was one of those high flyers they throw in to take bumps, same for Cara. Santino was on a roll if I remember correctly and it's hard to deny Santino when he's getting bigger pops than most every time he comes close to winning the big one. See EC 2012 and RR 2011.

Again, Bourne and Gabriel as high flyers. Alex Riley was on a roll at that time as well. Not sure what the hell Slater was doing there.

Big E has spent the majority of his time as a manager, matches here and there, but really hasn't stood out at all imo. Fandango deserves to be in the match more than he does, I'd even put Santino in again before i put Langston in.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I'm not losing any sleep that he isn't in the match, but I think he was a better choice than a couple of the guys in. Including Fandango who does absolutely nothing for me.

He says as he secretly does the Fandango dance at home

I theorize that you only 'enjoy' Fandango because you were apart of the Mania fandangoing, and not that you actually find the guy entertaining. The gimmick is way too one dimensional and I cringe thinking about his return.

I'm not crazy about Fandango, but he sells his gimmick well. His in ring is a little above average, but that's about it. I'm not his number one fan, but he is entertaining.

Cringing with excitement :jeritroll:

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Cringing at the thought of WWE trying to re-kickstart his push by shoving 'Fandango-ing' down our throats again.
