Despite the fact the three WWE pay-per-views of only been two weeks apart, they've been extremely well booked. I'm definitely looking forward to this.

I'm not too sure on the actual Money in the Bank Ladder Match yet, but Dean Ambrose is going to Seth Rollins to school with a ladder.

If the chemistry between Owens and Cena at Elimination Chamber is any indication, this match could reach for the sky and become a match of the year contender.

According to wrestling news sites, wwe has been booking PPV's two weeks apart because they don't want it to seem like the build up is dragging on. They feel like they can put more focus into the storyline with such short build up and not stall for time.

While it makes sense in theory; I've always been against cutting the number of supercards below 12 because I hate waiting more than a month

...I do believe there should be generally three weeks of build to the average PPV.

That said, WWE is definitely doing things right if the last three shows have been fantastic. Probably the best string of PPV shows WWE has done.

WWE do have a lot of filler if they have time on their hands to build to a PPV unfortunately. It's why the Raws leading into Wrestlemania have been cold the past few years.

I've got to go to a housewarming party for awhile, but I should be back in time to catch at least half of the show live.

I won't be here for the live discussion, but here are some thoughts on the card:

Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose will give it all they got in their match, which makes me a little worried. It should be exciting to watch though. I expect Rollins to win this. I don't see them bringing Brock Lesnar back to feud with Dean. Ambrose will be WWE Champion someday, but today is not the day.

The Money In The Bank Ladder Match will be exciting and dangerous as well. I see Roman Reigns getting the win. We will then be in for some compelling television as Reigns hovers over Rollins. Or Reigns hovering over his best friend. That could be compelling too. Someone else could get the win as WWE has surprised before, but right now, I see more in Reigns getting the win. I expect Neville to have a stand out performance.

The rematch between John Cena vs Kevin Owens is one I am looking forward to. I liked their last match, it was exciting to watch, but I didn't like the amount of finisher kick outs. Hopefully they don't rely on them in this match. As for who wins, I think Owens will win. I don't see there being much gain in Cena getting the win here. I don't see Owens winning clean, so maybe he cheats to get the win or Cena accidentally gets himself disqualified and Owens can call him a cheater, coward and hypocrite later.

I'm curious about Ryback vs Big Show. Ryback got to hit his finish on Show on Monday, which would mean in booking 101 terms that Show is getting the win here. I don't see it happening as I don't see Ryback as a transitional champion. Maybe Ryback will not get the pin, making it so we get another PPV match out of this. I think it could be an enjoyable bout as long as they make it an intense slobber knocker.

The New Day vs The Prime Time Players should be enjoyable to watch. I could see The Prime Time Players winning, but it would be an upset. I don't see there being much gain to the tag division in having the Players win this. There is more mileage in The New Day as the heel champions. I think they will win with shenanigans, maybe Kofi Kingston hitting one of them with the Trouble In Paradise.

I'm not really interested in Nikki Bella vs Paige. I'm kind of bored by the program. It seems to happen a lot. It's disappointing to say because Paige is talented and Nikki has improved a lot in her career. Seems like Naomi winning the belt would have freshened the division up a bit, but Vince could have a plan. I'm not sure who will win, I'm not really caring about racking my brain to think of who does. The division won't be fresh if either wins. My only hope is that if Nikki does win, she makes it look like she doesn't deserve it.

Barrett and Truth should have a decent and enjoyable match. Truth is entertaining, but The King has to win sometime and this has to be it. Hopefully Barrett can move up the card after this, just to give the King of the Ring tournament some value.
