The Official WWE Money in the Bank PPV Discussion Thread - July 18, 2010

I love the poster, About time someone different is on it and Kofi is a good choice.

MVP for MITB on SD and Evan for MITB on Raw.

Have they announced the gimmick or do people just assume it will be a bunch of dudes and ladders?

Lol, I dunno if you're slow or not....but the gimmick is the Money in the Bank ladder match, it's the reason this ppv is happening

I forgot about this PPV lol

makes WM's MITB seem pointless now

Well, I don't expect a lot of main eventers to be a part of this show if that's the gimmick. Falling off ladders is never fun. Trust me, I know.

if youve ever seen a MITB, which from that post you havent...main eventers arent usually in these matches

They will for this PPV because WWE is lame like that

No. I have never been in a MITB match, but I have worked with an asshole who thought it would be fun to push the ladder while I was working on it. My knee is still f'd from it. Thank you very much.

Gawd, I hate ladder matches these days. Nothing make sense outside of making the crowd go "WTF?".

Actually, I've never really been fond of the concept. I watch pro wrestling because the characters and interactions. I don't watch it to see people kill themselves "for the love of the sport".

updated

Sheamus for the win, for the love of god keep Cena away from the main championship for at least two years, fuck!

The RAW MITB is going to be epic with guys like Morrison and Bourne in there, I would've loved for Ryder to make the card

Yeah...Told ya Cena's regaining the title and becoming a 10 time champ.

I expect SD's to be: Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Christian, Dolph Ziggler, Matt Hardy, Drew...?

Unless they go with Dolph vs Kingston for title.

Drew is going to be away for awhile

SD will most likely have Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Christian, Dolph Ziggler, Matt Hardy and MVP?

^ if they do have them in there i hope punk or dolph wins.

Raw's MITB is filled with main eventers and only a couple of "Huh? He is a mid carder" while SD is the reverse. haha

I hope MVP is in the SD one and he wins, cashes it on Rey and turns heel. But I will love to see Kane win and get a title run.

MVPs not in it (thank god), but the cards updated

Since MVP isnt in it then I hope Kane or Christian win the SD one.

i hope christian wins it too.

updated

Hopefully Miz and Christian win there matches <3

Cody Rhodes and Evan Bourne are wildacards

Raw Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Randy Orton vs The Miz vs Ted DiBiase vs Mark Henry vs John Morrison vs Evan Bourne vs Chris Jericho vs Edge

I think its obvious Randy is winning this, but I would like the shock of Evan Bourne winning. We all know if Edge wins, he'll cash it in on Cena after the cage match...BORING.

Smackdown Money in the Bank Ladder Match
The Big Show vs Matt Hardy vs Christian vs Kofi Kingston vs Cody Rhodes vs Kane vs Drew McIntyre vs Dolph Ziggler

I hope Cody Rhodes wins and becomes champ, but I feel like Dolph Ziggler and Drew (possibly Kane) are the big ones to win this match.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Jack Swagger def. Rey Mysterio

Jack has already lost cleanly to Mysterio, so it'd be stupid for Rey to dominate him yet again, seeing as Jack is light years ahead of Rey in skill. Rey's ankle has to play a part in this match. They gave the title to him to make him happy, and now its time to give it back to someone who deserves it.

Steel Cage WWE Championship Match
John Cena def. Sheamus

Originally I thought that NXT would screw Cena out of the title in this match, but after Raw this week, it seems rather the reverse. And we all know Cena can't go a month without reclaiming his stolen gold. Either way, NXT will interfere and someone will be screwed.

Women's Championship Match
Layla def. Kelly Kelly

It would be a complete disaster if Kelly wins. Layla needs at least one title defence, and McCool isn't going to let Layla lose her title (McCool's as well) without a fight. Kelly has dominated both of them lately, so it seems reasonable to let Kelly go over her (it seems even with the big female stable Laycool and the womens championship, Layla is still Kelly's jobber). Possibly Rosa could cause a distraction to get back with Laycool's good books.

Unified Tag Team Championship Match
The Usos def. Hart Dynasty

HD's reign is getting rather stale, and I feel these two are definantly getting the gold, as HD have dominated most of the fued.

Divas Championship Match
Alicia Fox def. Eve Torres

It would be stupid for Eve to win back the title this soon, and its time for a new fued.

As much as I love Orton I would rather someone like Bourne win. Orton can get so many title opportunities and really doesn't need to win MITB.

I don't think Cena will get the belt back, Sheamus will find some way to retain. It's obvious Nexus will appear and most likely ruin the match though.

I think Hart Dynasty will retain for now but if the Usos win it won't bother me much, I'm really digging them.

Both women need to retain their titles. I can't stand Kelly or Eve and it's bad enough that I have to see them live on ppv

Mine

WWE Title
Who I want to win-Cena
Who will-Sheamus

World Title
Who I want to win-Rey
Who will win-It can go either way, Jack has been dominating this feud by taking everyone out with that ankle lock. I like to see Rey retain and Kane win MITB then cash in on Rey after his match. I dont know if I can put up with another Jack Swagger title run, his last one bored me. :/

Raw MITB
Who I want to win-Bourne, or Morrison
Who will win-Orton-BORING and Predictable-Hes been the one standing tall ever since after Fatal 4 Way.

SD MITB
Who I want to win-KANE
Who will win-Prolly Drew, since WWE are high on him.

Tag titles
Who I want to win-HD
Who will win-HD

Womens title
Who I want to win-Lay
Who will win-Lay with Michelle's help

Divas Title
Who I want to win-Alicia
Who will win-Alicia, with WWE being high on her she might just keep it a while

Orton better not fucking win

last time i read WWE arent actually high on Drew no mo.
i really expect Kane to win.....the obvious winner would be him...and even though he is old, and no longer as agile, and will prolly bring the qualty of the match down....he damn sure deserves to have a decent go at a title...considering the guy has been busting his ass off for 13 years.

as for the rest
Sheamus hopefully will win
i actually want Rey to win...so Kane can end his ass
Layla hopefully will win..but it could go either way
same with Alicia and Eve, Alicia being the one i want..as shes the lesser of two evils
tag titles...eh i really dont care
SD MITB BETTER BE FUCKING Kane...if not Drew or Dolph PLZ
Raw MITB...although itll either be Edge, Orton or Jericho id like it to be Mark....just because no one other then me seems to like this guy

^^I like Mark Henry. Hes grown on me.

Mark is awsome....way better as a face...he has decent enough mic skills...and his wrestling skills really mean squat...hes booked as a strong guy, he wrestles like one

Raw Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Randy
Orton vs The Miz vs Ted DiBiase vs Mark Henry vs John Morrison vs Evan
Bourne vs Chris Jericho vs Edge

Who I want to win: Evan Bourne
Who I think will win: The Miz
Reason: Don't really have one, just seems likely to me.

Smackdown Money in the Bank Ladder
Match
The Big Show vs Matt Hardy vs Christian vs Kofi
Kingston vs Cody Rhodes vs Kane vs Drew McIntyre vs Dolph Ziggler

Who I want to win: Kofi or Christian
Who I think will win: Christian
Reason: It's time to give him the M.E. push already!

World
Heavyweight Championship Match
Jack Swagger vs. Rey
Mysterio

Who I want to win: Jack Swagger
Who I think will win: Jack Swagger
Reason: Rey doesn't deserve the World Title

Steel Cage WWE
Championship Match
John Cena def. Sheamus

Who I want to win: Sheamus
Who I think will win: John Cena
Reason: Because John has to have the title back by the next Pay Per View if he loses it or all hell will break loose!

Women's
Championship Match
Layla def. Kelly Kelly

Who I want to win: Kelly
Who I think will win: Unsure
Reason: I think Kelly is ready. Very entertaining imo.

Unified Tag Team
Championship Match
The Usos def. Hart Dynasty

Who I want to win: Obviously the Hart Dynasty
Who I think will win: The Usos
Reason: They've done nothing but attack HD at every chance and I wouldn't be surprised to see them attack them before the match tonight.

Divas
Championship Match
Alicia Fox def. Eve Torres

Who I want to win: Eve Torres
Who I think will win: Alicia Fox
Reason: Alicia is def. not Championship material. She even botches an axe/scissors kick, every time she does it! And WWE is 'very high' on her so that's why I see Alicia retaining.

[So much for me not detailing this? lol, I split screen so I can cover it better for those not watching (: ]

We cut backstage to Sheamus, interview time.

Sheamus says he helped Cena against Nexus on Monday Night because of his pride. He says staring into the eyes of the Nexus is like staring into the eyes of a Great White Shark. He had to choose a side, so will 'you'.

He was standing a message to Nexus. He wanted to make sure Cena has no excuse tonight. He hates Cena. No respect for him. He only wants to make fun of his beautiful Irish skin and his accent. Let's see how funny Cena is tonight in a cage match. Let's see how many jars of mayo jokes he wants to make after he bounces off the steel bars of the cage.

He says he's a bigger threat to Cena then the Nexus is. End interview.

Back to the ring and Eve vs Alicia time!

Let's go Eve!!!

you know we got streams of the ppv up right?

Not everyone is watching it so I figured this would help those who aren't watching.

Yeah, I think I'm done highlighting it lol. I'm wore out from all that, lol.

I'll still post some though. Match winners and a little discussion here and there.

Hart Dynasty vs Usos.

Let me tell you, if Usos win I'm done with this PPV! I wanted Eve to win, she didn't win.

Usos better not win!

Go Hart Dynasty!! Im glad Alicia retained.

Good grief I thought they had the win! I thought he pinned Tyson!
