Well Kofi and Drew are eliminated now... and finally Big show is alive.... and he has his trusty reinforced ladder
this is tough my heart says Kane
i hope Christian but have a sneaking suspicion its McIntyre
Well they are in a youth movement, so it wouldn't surprise me to see Drew win, even Dolph Ziggler or Kofi Kingston win it but like I said with this being the 1st match of the night it has to be Kane, Big Show or Christian because neither Drew, Kofi or Dolph would be right to cash in right away as those men deserve a build up which is why I think Ted DiBiase will win the Raw MITB because of him being the one to be given a good proper build up.
P.S. I wonder if Big Show brought the customized ladder he had with him on SD.
they opening with a ladder match to set the tone I hope
got my stream up & running. The SD MITB Ladder match is up first, this already signals that the winner of the SD match will cash in tonight on Mysterio/Swagger. I am predicting Kane & Ted Dibiase are the MITB Winners for tonight and Kane will walk out as World Heavyweight Champion.
Edit: what is up with Cody's theme, I don't like it though I do like the little "Dashing" gimmick they are giving him.
Ok Simba brought in a good point Morrison as a heel has great promos but at the same time I can't judge guys on the power of the promo anymore.Why?Because it's pretty much scripted out.For years people (ie Stone Cold) have been lobbying Vince to let the talent go out there and unleash their own mic skills(It;'s how Austin was born,and it helped the Rock,Triple H, Shawn Michaels,and so on)Let these guys get creative and run with it I guarantee we would see more entertaining mic skills.
On the note of mic skills if you remember Bobby Lashley in ECW wow those were some bad terrible mic times. His promos would lull me to sleep
I so agree, I have always wondered why Vince keeps using scripts now a days. Like you said, The Rock & Austin were born because of their free style, say what you want as long as it enhances the storyline characters. Plus promos are so predictable, like if Barrett is talking about Cena, and talking about taking the title away... well it's predictable that Cena will come out and Wade would stand there like ok he's here now, no shock value of "who does think he is cutting me off." I gotta say the best wrestlers mic wise are the ones who can sell the story, and improvise when needed. Example, Triple H & HBK. The funny things about DX was when they would randomly say things and somehow it helped whatever storyline they were in. I'm sure Trips has freedom, Cena and Orton and the top guys probably have freedom of no script but your right.
I don't get why they need a script anyhow unless your rookies like the Nexus are and other young new comers, Vince just needs to say ok and I'll use 2 superstars as an example, Cena your going to start Raw, go out there have fun and sell winning the WWE Championship again or sell how Nexus keeps costing you the title, at some random point we'll play Sheamus music and Sheamus what you will say is how you would have won without Nexus and just get into a heated argument face to face than to end the segment the email noise will go off and put you in your matches. It's basic, just tell them what the main point of what they are saying and that' it. I always told my friend if I was the Guest Host, I would tell Vince, ok tell me who is going to come out, tell me the basic point I have to make, and tell me how it ends and that's it.
So apparently Tommy Dreamer has complete control over TNA'S Hard Justice PPV coming up. It's supposed to be his version of One Night Stand that WWE put on way back in the day(which was pretty good)
He has been contacting old ECW alumni to come in for the card so who knows what might happen.Rumors circling we might even get another RVD VS Jerry Lynn match.I think TNA is trying hard to grab viewers and is slowly building up as becoming the new ECW minus all the extra crazy violence,it's going to be interesting to see how they play it out.Yes TNA has been frustrating the hell out of me as of late I still tune in for my favs.
This may be the way to introduce Heyman. Letting Dreamer booking it and having friendships with alot of the alumni it might be interesting to see who they get to come in.
Hm... yeah they are calling it "Hardcore Justice" to go with the effect of the ECW storyline.... boy where I have seen this before.... oh yeah Vince already did it. They should have brought in Heyman in the first place, screw Hogan & Bischoff Heyman would be so much better, remember when he was SD GM, I believe he had some say in creative and SD was good because of Heyman's ideas. I knew from the beginning, Heyman should have been brought in because not only can Heyman cut a good promo when needed to, but his ideas for wrestling story lines are better than probably most of the WWE creative writers now.
Who's watching MITB in about 10 minutes or so?
What if Shawn Michaels is the mystery GM (he does have a propensity for sarcasm, so the gimmick infringement in stealing other legends' catchphrases would be in line with his personality in the past), and Triple H is the leader of Nexus and it all stemmed from Triple H trying to convince HBK not to wrestle the Undertaker at WrestleMania? The seeds were planted back then for Triple H's heel turn, but then Sheamus got in the way. Triple H could reveal that he wanted Nexus to cement his legacy in WWE by, well, destroying WWE since he never had his WrestleMania moment like HBK and he never stole the show quite like HBK did. He wants to destroy WWE so that he can take it and mold it into his own creation.
HBK will be baited into coming back to wrestle, but will refuse every time. Ultimately, he will be a man of his word and would rather step down as GM than go back on his word -- allowing someone like Cena or Orton or even Undertaker to intervene on HBK's behalf and get revenge against Triple H. Or, perhaps, Jericho turns face and realizes that HBK is a more honest man than him (playing off his gimmick of being self-righteous) and fights for the honor of his idol by going after Triple H.
that is way better than the storyline I proposed, Good job. That would be awesome if Shawn was the GM, and with the possibility of Triple H being the leader, it does leave the door open for him to come back, and like I mentioned Stephanie as well. I mean he and Steph could come back and question HHH's motives for doing what he is doing, and it would make for great TV.
I like that idea you made. Idk about Stephanie, but I think it'd be cool to see HBK come back and HE lead the charge against NeXuS.
You convinced me enough about Ted DiBiase, so here are my MiTB predictions.

Money in the Bank Predictions
WWE Champion (Steel Cage Match)
Sheamus vs. John Cena
Winner: No contest, i think NeXus interferes in the match, so Sheamus stays champion
World Championship
Rey Mysterio vs. Jack Swagger
Winner: Rey Mysterio
RAW Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Chris Jericho vs. John Morrison vs. The Miz vs. Mark Henry vs. Evan Bourne vs. Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. Ted DiBiase Jr.
Winner: Ted DiBiase Jr.
SMACKDOWN Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane vs. Big Show vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Matt Hardy vs. Christian vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Drew McIntyre
Winner: Christian
Unified Tag Team Championship Match
The Hart Dynasty vs. Jimmy & Jey Uso
Winner: THD
Divas Championship
Alicia Fox vs. Eve
Winner: Eve
Women's Championship
Layla vs. Kelly Kelly
Winner: Layla
I so agree with you on the WWE Championship match, I think it would be even better if Nexus attacks Cena and Sheamus, and they steal the WWE Championship and keeps it away from the Raw locker room. That would be quite interesting.
Mysterio over Swagger... idk. I'm mixed on that one, I wanna say Swagger but something tells me Kane will win the SD MITB and will cash in on Rey, Kane becomes Champion, he reveals himself as the attacker and Undertaker vs Kane will happen and thus Undertaker will get another title run out of it.
I'm trying to figure out why Alicia Fox is the Divas Champion.. there is nothing(and this is may just be me) that special about her, I mean I don't think she is that great in the ring, I just never liked her, and if it was up to me Maryse would never have lost the Divas Championship... ever!
I guess you could say the same thing about Layla and Kelly Kelly but at least they can wrestle. I can see Kelly Kelly winning and beating Layla and Vickie Guerrero(which she has no place on WWE right now) coming out and saying how since Michelle McCool is co-Women's champion Kelly must beat Michelle to be the champion.
Yeah sometimes I can just come up with great storylines out of nowhere, and because of that my friend told me I should become a Creative Writer for the WWE and that whole storyline was made up within seconds of writing that post. Shawn is more realistic than Stephanie as you said but it would be nice to see her again, and even Shane!
You really think DiBiase will win RAW MiTB match?
Yes I do, Orton/Edge are too caught up in their storyline, Jericho isn't done helping Bourne, we know Mark Henry won't win. Morrison and Miz even though I like the both of them will most likely be stuck in Mid-Card(even if that makes me mad and even if they both deserve it) Who does that leave.... Mr. Money In The Bank Ted DiBiase. I expect Ted to be given the proper build up and become a legit threat for a title.
What do you think of the little storyline I put there for the Nexus and Triple H joining Nexus and getting Shawn and Stephanie involved, I think that's a pretty solid storyline.
So Since Sheamus came out w/ a chair and helped Cena. Does this make Sheamus against the NeXuS? Also should we expect Edge, Y2J, Miz, DiBiase to follow Sheamus and join the fight against Nexus?
Don't know, I do expect Nexus to get involved in the title match, I mean don't the Computer GM know that yeah you can lock them out but they can climb the cage and still interfere? Where's the logic in that, yeah put 2 guys in a cage so nobody can get involved.... Nexus: Ok We'll Just Climb The Cage. DiBiase will be too busy celebrating his MITB victory to worry about Nexus. Wow... WWE is finally giving the thought of turning Cena Heel.... gasp! Did I just type that? That must be a typo or Vince is going crazy. My question is, Would a Cena heel turn have the same effect as Hogan turning his back on WCW in 1996 did?
In my honest Opinion, Triple H would be a better leader not only because of who he is and because he is overdue for a heel turn but the big reason is that Triple H joining Nexus would have better story lines and surprises than a Cena heel turn.
Now just hear me out on this, as we all know Triple H is married to Stephanie, and the McMahon Family is the most famous family of the WWE. He would be turning his back on not only Vince, but his own wife by defecting over to Nexus. Stephanie could come back(whenever she isn't pregnant) and question his motives and bring up how they stuck together when Orton tried to take out the McMahon family, and that they could have chose anyone else to help them with Orton, and how if it wasn't for her father he wouldn't be where he is and that without her dad, there is no this(points to wedding ring) and if he is turning his back on her father, than he has no wife!
They could have Shawn come back(and not wrestle, I wanna clear that up from the beginning this is only to enhance the storyline) question HHH and how he is turning his back on his family(literally and since Shawn is a family man it would make sense for him to bring up family values) and the company that made him and if it wasn't for Vince taking a chance on him and Shawn taking him under his wing, there would be no Triple H and he would have been a nobody stuck in WCW. Triple H leading Nexus has much more possibilities(I could go on with the possibilities) and surprises than a Cena Heel turn.
NeXuS attacked NXT pros, does this mean SD is officially involved.
I don't know probably not. I mean now it seems like they have no idea what to do with this storyline, I mean they have done beat downs for weeks, and they destroyed the arena for couple weeks, it seems like they have no direction on what they want to do and where they want to go with it. It's just too bad they don't know how to evolve the angle and not have it get so repetitive so fast and in some cases boring.
Just wish they had gotten SD involved from the beginning and make it seem like a WWE vs Nexus and not Raw vs Nexus. With that it allows them to get more superstars involved, have more "shocking"(and I put that because of spoilers on the internet) events happen and WWE guys defecting to Nexus. Even to slow this storyline down, they could have just kept Nexus off Raw for a week.
Question, did anyone listen to Cena's promo in the beginning of Raw where he pretty much buried Sheamus as the champ by saying, that he is only a two time champion because he fell through the table "by accident" and because Nexus attacked the Fatal 4 Way guys and Sheamus just took advantage of it. I can't believe Cena buried Sheamus the way he did, especially the falling through the table part, lucky Cena is the face of the company because any other wrestler would be in trouble.
No hints last night, unless you count another instance of the lights flickering when the email chime came in.
Did you not catch the hint last night, they had Cole read another famous catch phrase by a Hall Of Famer but I'm not saying who because I'm not going to spoil it for FF but they did throw another hint of who it could be even though all these catch phrases are just to throw us off on who it really is. It wouldn't surprise me next week for them to use another catch phrase from another legend or Future Hall of Famer.
They did a big NO NO with DiBiase they basically recycled his daddy's gimmick. He can't grow on his own mimicking someone else.Dashing Cody Rhodes is going in a different direction then both his family members
Well you have to admit, Charlie Haas grew on his own somewhat when he started the mimicking of other superstars gimmick. I thought for sure Haas would have got the IC Title from Santino in that little push he got from just mimicking different Superstars. CHL was my favorite imitation.
Ok back to Ted, I must be in the minority here because I like Ted better than Cody. Yes Ted is using his father's gimmick but it's sort of working, yeah not much but just it's working where I could see Ted Sr coming back and being Ted's manager where it all goes full circle and Ted Jr turns on his father and gets out of his dad's gimmick. Like I said I could see Ted Jr facing Undertaker in Atlanta next year at Wrestlemania with his father in his corner and possibly if they really want to work it full circle, have Paul Bearer be in Taker's corner since Undertaker turned on Ted and joined with Bearer. I fully predict Ted Dibiase to win MITB this Sunday Night and for him to have the build up Edge had a few years back where Ted cashes it 10 months later, or probably sooner like 6-7 months but just enough of a proper build up for him to be legit.
If they reveal Kane as the attacker (which all signs point to), then I'll be sorely disappointed in what has otherwise been a good angle for the Big Red Machine. Though it's a bit anti-climactic and "obvious" to have the Nexus be the culprits, that would be a more effective means of getting them over if they were able to take out two "unstoppable" forces in John Cena and The Undertaker. There's also a bit of storyline history there, as the Nexus had faced Kane in a series of matches for a couple of weeks during NXT Season 1, usually ending in a group beatdown of Kane.
If they need to set up another Undertaker-Kane match, I'd rather see Kane turn heel by turning on his brother after the investigation is over, rather than have him turn heel by being the attacker.
As for the WWE's "savior," if they can't get The Rock to do it and Triple H is out with an injury, then I'd like to see Chris Jericho turn face and lead the charge against them, or have Randy Orton suddenly take a vested interest in the Nexus and take them out one-by-one, Viper-like. Though Jericho is a much more effective heel (he's done some of the best work of his career lately), it would be an interesting twist on the "Save Me/Us" gimmick that he had upon his latest return to WWE. They could write it as Jericho believing that the Nexus is trying to suck the life out of the business, and that even though he doesn't care about the fans, he cares about the business because it's the business itself that makes him the "best in the world at what he does."
Jericho would be a good savior I think but I think he is going to remain heel for a little bit longer, or until he is done helping Evan Bourne get over, which is the one thing I like about Chris, is that he is willing to help put the young guys over like Shawn did.
Remember last week Jericho took credit for the whole Nexus group. So unless they attack Y2J then idk.
Yeah Jericho only took credit because his Rookie won Season 1 of NXT. Now what I thought would have been great was for Barrett to tag team with Jericho win the tag titles, and have Jericho help Barrett develop as a wrestler and get better and at a point Barrett slowly turns on Jericho, making Jericho a face again once Barrett turned on Jericho completely. Now of course I'm not going to complain because this invasion angle has been great.
Did you guys see the photos online of Mark Calaway(Undertaker) and Michelle McCool's wedding? I saw that they were posted and that WWE is not happy because of this big angle with Undertaker being in a vegetative state and if the wedding pictures are out with him not hurt or nothing it will hurt the angle. It would be interesting that just like they brought out Triple H/Stephanie being married in real life(everybody knew that anyhow) that they say that Taker/McCool are married in real life and McCool gets involved as the worried wife and she gets picked on until Undertaker saves her and makes his return.
The tears there were nothing to compared to Raw the next night when Shawn gave his farewell speech. The whole thing was so heartfelt and personal, you could tell he was pouring out the feelings he kept up during his 20 plus year career. Then when Triple H came out... man, it was nice to see his best friend come out and tell him goodbye before "laying" DX to rest.
Yeah, it sucks that they didn't put his Farewell on the WM 26 DVD, I was really hoping they would have but I did see that Shawn's farewell is on the Extreme Rules DVD as an Extra, I mean it would have been better to include it on the WM 26 DVD but that's ok. I mean I wasn't planning on buying Extreme Rules but I just might because of it having the farewell on it and it was a decent PPV.
Hey, have you guys been reading on how Jeff Hardy's court date keeps getting pushed back? I think for as much as it has been pushed back, he is guilty of drug trafficking or whatever he was being charged with, now of course what I don't get is that TNA knows about this yet they are giving him a title shot tonight... isn't that interesting? Can't wait to see how TNA gets major controversy for employing him, shoot it wouldn't surprise me that Dixie Carter is behind his court date being pushed back just so he can be apart of TNA.
Kind of related to the bolded part, but at the end of Taker and Shawn's match at this year's WM, when Taker picked Shawn up after he won, did it sound to anyone else like Taker told Shawn "Don't do it", regarding retirement? Perhaps it was my mind playing tricks on me, since Shawn is my favorite wrestler of all time.
I'm watching it now and it looked like he told him something about not retiring but I wasn't sure. What would have made the match better was if JR called the match. I don't get how Vince couldn't let JR call that one match.
I didn't know that O.o Who woulda thunk the Big Red Monster is classy...
Well to many of his fans he is too classy as most of his fans believe he should get a title run that lasts longer than 24 hours. It's great he is helping out the young talent and putting them over, but I think it's time for Kane to win another title.
I also read that Mark Caloway(Undertaker's real name) actually suggested not only Kane to end the streak like he also suggested Orton be the one to end the streak when they faced off a few years back, but like Kane declined because Orton had so much respect for the Undertaker.
You would think that since he suggested two people to end the streak, that would show how much he cares about the Streak as much as Vince does. I'm sure he tried talk Shawn into being the one to end the streak and I'm sure like Kane & Orton, Shawn declined. The thing is Vince knows that if anyone would end the streak, whether they were worthy(like HBK) or not(a young star) of ending the streak fans would be upset and that it all goes back to money, Taker continues the streak means more money and more things they could do to make more money based off his streak alone. So many fans believe that is a streak that should never ever be broken.
JR did sign a new contract with the WWE but it's not a talent contract where he'll be announcing again on Raw or Smack Down, I think he is just going to be the head of the scouting area and finding young superstars to bring in the business like he found Jack Swagger. JR actually seems happier now that he is not announcing every week.
I just cannot see Kane as World Heavyweight Champion anymore. His main event window closed a while ago.
Well than you'll be surprised if he wins MITB and cashes in on Mysterio I guess. I don't think he will win the SD MITB because Christian is more deserving but it wouldn't surprise me to see them give Kane a final title run and have him and Undertaker face off for the title at Summerslam. I can already tell they are going for Kane attacking Undertaker and with Kane having the title, it will be another way for Taker to get the title again.
Rock doesn't even need to wrestle regularly in the build-up to a WrestleMania match with Cena, he just needs to do taped vignettes every other week or just something to keep in relevant enough in that time.
Bottom line, ring rust or no ring rust, I just want my idol back in the ring one more time!
Yeah he would get the ring rust off by wrestling in this Nexus storyline and saving the WWE if he did come back for this angle. Now your right he don't need to wrestle to help the build for a Rock-Cena match, I mean The Rock has one of the best mic skills ever in the WWE, so he could just talk and do promos like you said and keep fans interested. Now of course the only problem is that the audiences are filled with little kids, they aren't going to know who the Rock is. Yeah all the older fans will and they will be cheering loudly but the little kids they are targeting won't know him, I mean I was watching the Edge-Christian Promo on Youtube where it was Edge's last night on SD and when Christian came out, yeah there was that pop but just the presence of them two in the ring didn't get a loud pop as expected.
well we will see if Drew is the chosen one after MITB.
had a friend who went to smackdown
I hope Drew doesn't win the SD MITB, I'm almost positive that Dibiase will win the Raw MITB, and looking at the SD MITB, the only two people who deserve to win it is Christian and Kane. Certainly if Kane wins, I expect him to become World Champion after beating Rey Mysterio and WWE will stick to the obvious Kane attacking the Undertaker storyline and Taker will beat Kane for the WHC and get another title run sometime. Just hope that at least Kane gets a decent length of a title run regardless he ends up losing to Undertaker or not.
Christian I can see winning because SD needs a top face and Christian carried ECW until the end, and certainly has World Champion I'm sure he could carry SD, as long as Christian in the end loses the title to CM Punk and Punk gets another title run but this time while he is leading the SES.
I don't care if it's a one-and-done angle, I want The Rock to come back and be the "savior"!!!
Just because I want Rock back on TV that badly. I've been on a YouTube-watching binge lately, looking up clips of The Great One's highlights.
I have been thinking about that being a possibility especially with Triple H out even longer and there is no star power on Raw besides John Cena and Randy Orton. I actually think The Rock coming back for this angle and "saving" the WWE from Nexus. The Rock said he was going to come back and do something "big" well here is the big angle for the Summer.
Quite possibly to maybe if The Rock comes back and "saves" the WWE that it could lead to the dream match every fan wants to see at Wrestlemania 27....... The Rock vs John Cena.
Triple H will be out for a few more months apparently,
Damn I really hope he comes back as the badd a## and not the merch junkie
Wow... it seems like ever since Over The Limit they have been cursed with injuries and problems. Orton suffers an injury, Punk is injured, Undertaker is injured, Danielson's choking with a tie gets him fired, Barrett and McIntyre have visa issues, and now Triple H will be out for a few more months.
So if Triple H was suppose to be the "savior" of the WWE when it comes to Nexus, who is going to fill that role now?
Hey Vince, guess it's time to pull Shawn Michaels out of retirement... jk. What's next, the GM whoever he is, gets hurt and can't do nothing for 2-3 months and WWE can't reveal him until he does get back and is healed or one night Michael Cole is reading that computer and the computer shuts down on him while he is right in the middle of a sentence and has a blank look on his face trying to figure out what to do and how to save the segment lol.
Christian doesn't have the marketable look and is too old for a main event push too, that and hes more of a smark favorite.
He is only 36.... and deserves a main event push. I don't know how you consider him too old when TNA has given Kevin Nash(50 will be 51 tomorrow) and Scott Hall(drug addict and is 51) the tag team titles. Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair were the main center piece around AJ Styles/Abyss feud and they are 56 and 61 respectively. Wasn't Sting just in the main event not too long ago as well, and he's 51. I could go on but I have proven my point. You say Edge and Christian are too old for the main event, both are 36 and considering who's main eventing TNA and have had titles in TNA, they are YOUNGER than their main event counter parts in TNA who are almost double their age.
I think it would be cool to keep Christian Face if somehow Edge lost the Raw MITB, Christian won the SD MITB and Edge became WWE Champion and Christian cashed in on Edge and won the title that way.
They've waited too long to cash in with Matt, he's fat, 35, and if you read his twitter you'd know he always has one foot out the door.
OT: Not sure why Edge is still booked to main event status, he's 36, looks terrible, has a terrible finisher and he's always injured. He even said he's retiring in two years.
Oh yeah Matt's door closed a while back, the only value he had was when he and Jeff were tag teaming, other than that, nothing.
Edge is still a top star, he can still give it his all and perform night in and night out. You must not like Edge because he is really great, I mean sure I'll say WWE brought him back way too soon, the Royal Rumble return wasn't necessary, I think Edge and Jericho could have had a better feud if Edge had returned a month or two ago instead of coming back for the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania. Jericho could have had a longer title run and Edge could have cost Jericho the title to make his return be big.
I just wish Edge & Christian would team up one more time before Edge retires.
See, I like Matt Hardy as a person, from what I've seen of his interactions with fans online. But that said, he's always seemed to have a chip on his shoulder because of how his brother has always gotten better opportunities despite having better matwork than Jeff.
Irrespective of all that, Matt Hardy may have a large fan following, but how long can they keep using him in his role as the "most popular midcard talent ever" before fans stop caring? I've stopped caring about him ever since his botched heel turn against his brother and he's done nothing to really deserve a bigger push. His mic work is atrocious and is unlikely to improve, and his ring work is too bland for my taste.
Jeff, meanwhile, is all about the high spots, which masks his deficiencies as a worker. I've always thought Jeff was overrated (even though I've enjoyed quite a few of his PPV matches) and never truly deserving of all the big breaks he got, especially given his spotty track record.
The Hardy Boyz need to accept that they're better as a tag team than as solo stars, and that they need to remain a tag team for the rest of their careers or risk being pushed to the side sooner than they expect.
You are right they are better as a tag team and quite frankly Vince needs to give Matt Hardy the pink slip and let him join TNA in 90 days, I don't see why people think Matt deserves a push. Ok I can understand giving him the IC title, just to keep him happy and around but it's time for him to go. Plus I don't see why you keep around him if your trying to build new stars, sure Matt can be a stepping stone in McIntyre's career and Matt can help him develop but other than that what good does Matt have when your trying to create new stars and build credibility to guys like Jack Swagger, Drew McIntyre, Kofi Kingston, Cody Rhodes, and Dolph Ziggler.
Jeff on the other hand, he certainly deserved his Title run he got at the end of 2008, early 2009, but he was a transitional champion, nothing more. The only reason he got it was because Vince knew if Jeff had the title, fans would buy more Jeff Hardy merchandise, which means more money, he also knew that ratings would probably go up, which again means more money. Jeff had the fan base and popularity, it was a matter of time before he got the title. It wouldn't surprise me to see Jeff win the TNA Title soon.
So should we expect the RAW MITB winner to be WWE champion by the end of the night at MITB PPV? NeXuS make good point with randy. They obviously are going to attack whoever is in the cage or ring and then the winner might as well take it as an opportunity. However I think Sheamus is going to win so he and HHH can wrestle at Summerslam, so does he get attacked?
Interesting that there is one spot left in the RAW MiTB match, maybe HHH will replace R-Truth?
I see Sheamus retaining the title against Cena at MITB and Nexus will come out making us think they will attack him and instead all start beating down on Cena, thus having Sheamus align himself with Nexus, and whoever wins the RAW MITB(in which I think it's Ted Dibiase) will be built up and given time to make us think he is ready to challenge for the title. Triple H will return either next night on Raw(similar to Batista) with his trusty sledgehammer and beat the hell out of anyone moving, or they'll make him out to be the savior and hold his return for another week where the Nexus will be beating up on every Raw Superstar and Lawler/Cole will be saying, we need help the Raw guys are outnumbered someone has got to help us.... Cue Motorhead and Triple H with his sledgehammer to do the above.
R-Truth... he'll be replaced by someone. The only people who should be in MITB on Raw are already in and Triple H don't need no brief case to tell him when he has a title shot. So maybe they will move someone from SD to Raw though looking at their roster, everyone who is someone is in the SD MITB match with the exception two in which I see Ziggler and Drew McIntyre getting those two remaining spots in the SD match. Unless.... drum roll please.... Bryan Danielson replaces R-Truth!!!!! lol jk, his is 90 day No compete clause up yet, anyone know?

It was very good. When Christian and Matt Hardy were left, I thought for sure Christian was going to win, than when nobody was left and Drew got back in the ring... I was like don't let it be him, and luckily Kane pushed him off the ladder and Kane won like I said he would.
