I doubt they would bring back Ellsworth just to cause a DQ. I think Carmella will be pinning Asuka.

Don't underestimate them. And its worth mentioning that WWE is advertising Asuka and Carmella for Extreme Rules anyways, as of two days ago. On the RAW side, they are advertising Nia, Alexa, and Sasha as being in action. While I can see Carmella pinning Asuka, it won't be a clean one. It'll likely be as dirty as can be. Tights or ropes. Or both. DarkstarIV fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Jun 16, 2018 |

Yeah, I guess there is speculation going around that they are putting off Asuka winning the title at MITB because of the upcoming Japan house show. The finalized card was sent out for both nights.quote:June 29: It's worth noting that the night 2 SD Women's title match has changed several times since the initial card was released a month or two ago. It used to be Carmella vs Charlotte vs Asuka. It was then changed to Carmella vs Becky vs Asuka. And now its just Carmella vs Asuka. There is going to be a decent amount of Japanese media coverage there as well, apparently.

Still a bit early to tell, but it seems smart money is starting to roll in. Alexa Bliss is the favorite to win the Womens MITB now.

From NXT last night.... they taped two matches. War Raiders vs. The Mighty - Winner: War Raiders Bianca Belair vs. Dakota Kai - Winner: Bianaca Belair Both matches were pretty great. The women's match was far better than Shayna/Cross

fatherofmustard posted:It's either her or Natalya. Going to lean towards Alexa here. She flipped from being a +480 underdog to -280 favorite within the last hour. And Natalya is now +360 (from -145). Also Shinsuke Nakamura is now at -180, massively down from -520 earlier. AJ has moved in to +120 (from +540).

Miz should win MitB and should cash in during a double KO spot between AJ and Nak.

Braun Strowman is now the favorite to win the men's money in the bank on some sites like Kambi. He's still an underdog on sites like 5dimes.

I'll be really surprised if Strowman wins the briefcase though because uh, you really gotta put the belt on him at that point and they seem opposed to doing that.

Makes sense. Roman will beat him in a match for the case and then beat Brock on a random raw.

If they're doing a longer briefcase hold Alexa is like the best choice there because nobody else in that match can talk. (Except Becky but she speaks some weird foreign language.)

Here's a legitimate scoop: Whoever wins MITB will do nothing interesting, lose every match for months on end while Michael Cole screams MISTER MONEY IN THE BANK, and hold up the briefcase at painfully stilted angles to "get it on the camera." They will eventually cash in long after everyone stopped caring and have a lovely 3-6 month reign that makes the entire endeavor feel pointless.

Couple of updates from 5dimes: Shinsuke remains at -180 Ronda is now -560 to win the title Carmella is now -145 (Asuka is at +105 now) Big rear end is at -210 All of the other results are pretty obvious. Seth winning, Bobby winning, Bludgeon Brothers winning, Roman winning. So it seems like main roster creative saw Takeover last night and is booking the exact opposite way they should be booking.

Braun 100% should have had at least one world title reign by now, but they clearly don't want that, so I can't imagine him getting the briefcase ending in a result that isn't "fails a cash-in attempt for some dumb reason" Speaking of failed cash-ins: 2017 had 2 MITB winners (Carmella and Corbin), Corbin failed his attempt 2013 had 2 MITB winners (Sandow and Orton), Sandow failed his attempt 2012 had 2 MITB winners (Dolph and Cena), Cena failed his attempt
