So tomorrow night WWE presents their annual Money In The Bank pay per view, and I have to say this is the most excited I’ve been for a WWE show in a long time. This one really has the potential to be the best show of the year if it’s done right.
SMACKDOWN MONEY IN THE BANK LADDER MATCH
I reckon this one will be the show’s opener just like last year, and I think it will probably be the better match of the two. I think the lineup is quite decent as well. The only thing I don’t like about it is having both Gabriel and Slater in the match. I think only one of them should be in, and it should obviously be Gabriel. I suppose I’m just being biased because I think Slater is completely useless but also because I wanna see the possible 360 splash of the ladder that we might be getting. That would be amazing. Other than that, the lineup is great. Sin Cara, Daniel Bryan and Cody Rhodes will be great in this one!
As to picking a winner, I want Cody Rhodes. I think he’s ready to enter the main event scene, hopefully they’ll have a nice pair of kneepads waiting for him there too. As much as I want Cody to win, I think WWE will have Sheamus win and cash it on the champion that night similar to what Kane did last year. I think this because of the triple threat angle they were teasing for weeks but also because I*don’t*think it’s good having two MITB*briefcase*holders at the same time. Sort of makes it less effective. It’s a pity too because I think this match should be used to break out a new main eventer and Sheamus is already a former 2 time WWE Champion. But overall, I’m expecting a great match here.
Who I Want: Cody Rhodes
Who I’m Predicting: Sheamus
DIVA’S CHAMPIONSHIP: KELLY KELLY VS BRIE BELLA
Eugh, WHO THE HELL CARES? Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge supporter of the divas division and want to see it*succeed but this is just not a PPV worthy match at all. Kelly Kelly will do her usual 5 ridiculous moves and get the win here, either way I don’t care because I don’t want either one of them as the champion. The only way this thing could be saved is if Beth Phoenix comes out and attacks either Kelly or both of them and makes the desperate heel turn she needs to make. Some sort of story about Beth hating the less experienced wrestlers getting her tv time would be great actually. Even put together a heel group with Beth, Natalya and Gail. That way you get a*story*which is very relevant , but also you get to see the wrestlers used as well as the models WWE love to use and are going to use regardless. Everybody wins. Will this happen? Probably not. At the minute, I’m just counting down the days to Kharma’s return.
Who I Want: Neither
Who I’m Predicting: Kelly Kelly
BIG SHOW VS MARK HENRY
I’ve actually really enjoyed this feud so far. I’m not expecting a competitive match here as opposed to some sort of angle. I think this will end up with a DQ or something to set some sort of gimmick match up for SummerSlam. I don’t actually mind that either because it’s a singles match would be a great match for these two. But regardless, Mark Henry will come out of this one looking good and so he should, he’s been great lately in my opinion.
Who I Want: Mark Henry
Who I’m Predicting: Mark Henry
WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP: RANDY ORTON VS CHRISTIAN
This has been another great feud which either needs to conclude at this show, or Christian needs to win the title. There’s only so many times Christian can lose in this one.
