Roman will hold the title until Mania, Seth will win the Rumble, Ambrose will win MITB and cash-in leading up to Mania to make it a three-way.

Dean Ambrose will end the main event of MITB with a double DQ and then be his wacky Dean self and say "Hey guys, don't worry, we'll just do it again at Summerslam! Except I'll be in it this time too" and he cashes in right there. But there's a PPV in between them and they love title matches at PPVs so maybe not

Have a match at battleground where you force them to have a six man tag against someone, so you get a shield reunion, and make a stip that if any of them eat the pin they lose their spot in the title match at SS. So now you have them blatantly refusing to break up pins and such. Who do you put them against though? Returning Wyatts?

This OP has failed me, for it did not give me the good news about Kane.

Edit: Also, what's worth watching from this show? If anything.

The opening segment, the Kane segment, and the Sami-Cesaro match

e: actually the Shield segment was pretty ok too

AJ/Cena segment was good and the Jericho/Ambrose match was poo poo but had some funny stuff because of KO, Cesaro, and Sami.

I'm still getting used to the WWE's booking idiosyncrasies, so does the fact that Dean's been booked pretty strong since Mania and especially since Extreme Rules mean he's definitely not winning MitB or what?

The thing that makes me think he might be winning is the level of emphasis on The Shield in the build.

I agree however do you really think Vince is going to let Owens cut promo's on Reigns. Even if owens was going easy on him he would make Reigns look even worse.

Unless they're going to do it as a swerve, Owens has been booked like he'll be getting it.

It makes strong story sense for Dean to win, and KO is the fan favorite, so expect ADR to become Mr. Money in the Bank.

Squashing which MITB competitor would benefit Roman Reigns the most? That's who will win. So I'm going with KO

Owens would mention how he's wearing loving body armor two minutes into their first promo and be Future Endeavored before Smackdown started taping.

Dean makes the most sense but MAN I want Cesaro to win. :(

btw, we're splitting again like a month after MitB, but there's only one briefcase, so how's that gonna work?

Exactly like it used to work before they oversaturated it like they always do and made a second briefcase

2010 was peak MITB saturation. 1 Wrestlemania briefcase, 2 briefcases from the inaugural MITB PPV, and an angle that played out exactly like a MITB cash-in where Batista had an impromptu title match against a battle-weary Cena in February.

I think I might be one of the only people here who doesn't hate Dean's current thing. Do I wish he was more serious more often? Yes, but what he does is also over and I get what they're going for (he acts all wacky and disarming but the truth is he's a scary lunatic). It's not great, they could be doing it better, but I see what they're trying to do and it's far from the worst idea.
