Jericho and Edge talking actively about cashing in the briefcase after the Cena-Sheamus match means: 1) neither man will win the briefcase; and 2) the winner won't be cashing it in after the cage match because of Nexus hitting the ring.

He;s been right all for the Diva's match

No love for Kane, Demon?

[JO_75]

Ewww at Kane winning Money in the Bank.

More Ewww at that pathetic Rey Mysterio beating Swagger.

Even more Ewww at Kane being World Heavyweight Champion.

I told you earlier that you would be surprised that Kane walks away with the brief case and the Championship. Why don't you like Kane winning MITB or being WHC? He deserved a title run after only having a 24 hour run with the WWF Championship during the attitude era.

damn someone shut them women's up too much yelling,and Strycker shaddup!

Exactly. That is exactly why I am predicting Ted Dibiase as the Raw MITB winner because I knew the SD MITB brief case would have been cashed in on the same night and Ted is the one they will build up to a credible contender and legit champion when he actually does win.

Damn Kelly Kelly lost to the Beautiful People rip off known as Lay-Cool.

Not for years. Kane, like the Undertaker, isn't the least bit intimidating anymore. Also like Taker, his sense of "coolness" wore off a while ago to me. Not to mention, he's been midcard at best for quite a while lately, but that's not a bad thing, per se. He's done well with the younger talent on the roster. I mean, Kane's a huge step up (pun intended) over Mysterio as World Heavyweight Champion, but still. To me, Kane is far, far past main event status and World Championship status.

Smackdown's turned into the minor league of the two brands, which I'm not saying it's a bad thing. You have a lot of young talent, with some big name veterans on the roster. Should be a good chance to groom some up and comers though.

I am still a huge Brothers of Destruction fan,Taker was my first favorite and for 20 years have been cheering him,Kane I just hope gets longer then a 24 hour run.Loving the young guys but still love the Taker lol

I'll be disgusted if DiBiase wins it. The man can't even have an original gimmick, he's not that impressive in the ring, or on the mic really. Hell, I wouldn't even pay attention to his promos if it weren't for Maryse being at his side. Having him win MitB would be a terrible idea.

[theFRANCHISE]

I'm calling The Miz to win, too. DiBiase just isn't ready to be built up as a contender yet, and you know that the winner will cash in their briefcase wayyyy before WrestleMania given the audience's short attention span. DiBiase isn't over enough yet to be built up as a threat to the championship in a short span. Miz is ready.

On another note, I marked out big time when Orton did his pose on the turnbuckle. Can't get enough of it -- I do the pose all the time myself. It's my signature now. lol.

[FlaccoFlicker]

wouldnt mind Morrison as a backup tho

I have a ton of respect for the Undertaker, it just depresses me to see him now, old and unimpressive, when he used to be, probably, one of the most intimidating, and downright cool superstars in the federation. He's just nothing like he was back in the day, which I understand, the man's getting old. However, his matches, and him personally, are not as entertaining and imposing as they once were. It'll still be a sad day when he finally does call it quits.

I totally support Miz winning it. Used to hate the guy, but he's grown on me immensely.

agre with that and I truly think that day is coming,and I will definitly be at his HOF induction I actually have a saving fund set up for it,that's kinda pathetic but dude has been my idol hell my wrestling gimmick was Darksyde and backstory was illegitimate son of Taker lol

So I guess that means your going with the Miz than. It will be interesting if he does, I won't complain about it though if he does as I like both Morrison & Miz and think they should be in the main event soon.

I read online Orton was the favorite to win the Raw MITB match but hopefully that is not the case, unlike Kane and I'm not taking anything from him just with him being a jobber forever this was the only way he would have won a title again; Orton does not need MITB to be champion, he can just go get himself a title shot. Plus 1 young star has to walk away as with the brief case to be built up as a legit champion and threat, and as I said before 4 of those guys are locked in feuds with each other(Orton/Edge; Jericho/Bourne) leaving The Miz, Morrison, Dibiase and Henry. Henry won't ever win, leaving it legitimately down to 3 young stars in Morrison, Miz and Dibiase.

I'll be happy with either one of those 3 winning but I'm going with Ted.

You know, if by some stroke of luck horrible booking and decision making, Evan Bourne won MitB, I'd probably stop watching the WWE. I'm probably one of the few people who does not find him the least bit entertaining. I can only take so many kicks in one match (since he seems to not know very many actual moves), and the Shooting Star Press was interesting back when Billy Kidman did it, it's lost it's luster now.

I don't think Bourne is ready yet, I think all Bourne is in the match for is because of Cena telling Vince to give him a push and to be the spot of the match where he does something special but doesn't win, just like Kofi did earlier.

[theFRANCHISE]

That was a SICK RKO to Jericho off the ladder!

[theFRANCHISE]

That win was AWESOME!!!!

I don't think Bourne will ever be ready.

[FlaccoFlicker]

AWESOME! Hell yeah that match was beyond Awesome that match was FREAKING AWESOME LOL.RKO's everywhere and that drop Edge took ouch man

[JO_75]

Ok that was so unrealistic, Bourne could have easily took the brief case down in the time it took for Jericho to get untangled and attack Bourne.

WOW! FF you called that one. I think this is the first time the MITB Winner has been AWESOME!

I'm not going to complain, I said I would be happy with Ted, Morrison or Miz winning and Miz won so I'm happy.

The Miz will cash in in a couple months, maybe even get built up right and cash in months from now. I can't see them having both cash in on the same night, The Miz must be built up right and Michael Cole said it, he will become champion at the right place at the right time which means it will be a while.

[theFRANCHISE]

I think that this promo was Miz's latest star-making turn.

Similar to how The Rock and Triple H's ladder match at SummerSlam 1998 was what propelled them to the main event, the result of this match may have done the same for Miz.

[FlaccoFlicker]

Only way I see Miz cashing it in is if Nexus beats the holly hell out of the Winner of the Cage Match

[FlaccoFlicker]

Just wish they would put out a decent Miz shirt don't like any they have released the I'm Awesome is ok but just not what I want lol

No we already had Kane cash in, I think the Miz will be built up and given a title shot after he is built up right and is a legit threat.

So how come they always say that nobody can get involved during a cage match, do they not know Nexus has arms and legs and can climb the cage and get involved. I expect Nexus to get involved in the middle of the match.

[FlaccoFlicker]

where is Mania this time? Trying to plan out lol just in case the man retires this year,tho he wouldn't hit the hall til next I feel if not later.

on another note how come Austin is in but Rock isnt?
