MITB Matches at MITB

[Ermaximus]

Ok so, who gets in on each show? I want your input here TPWW. Which 8 Raw guys get in and which 8 SD guys get in? Give us "your take."

I'm going with this:

Raw:
Orton
Edge
The Miz
Morrison
Bourne
Truth
Dibiase
Otunga (I figure at least 1 of these guys will get into this match.)

Smackdown:
Punk
Kane
McIntyre
Big Show
MVP
Kofi
Christian
Ziggler

It's crazy that more people will get used this PPV than most other PPV's period. TBH, IF they had a Diva's MitB Match also, I might actually watch it, but they barely have 8 diva's on each show so we'll no doubt get an Alicia Fox vs Nikki Bella match or some shit.

Cool topic bro. I fully expect both matches to wind up being exactly that except maybe replace Kane with Hardy, depending on who looks worse when we get closer to the PPV.

RAW:

Jericho
Edge
Bourne
Morrison
R-Truth
Orton
DiBiase
Miz


SD:

Christian
Punk
Rhodes
Ziggler
McIntyre
Kane
Kingston
MVP

[Ultra Mantis]

Raw:
Orton
Edge
Jericho
Bourne
Miz
Morrison
R-Truth
Zack Ryder

Since Barrett has a guarenteed title shot there's no need for Nexus to be represented unless they already want to go with a power struggle. I can see DiBiase being involved as an outside force, paying off Ryder to compete in the match on his behalf or trying to buy the case from the winner afterwards.

Smackdown:
Punk
Kane
Christian
Kofi
Ziggler
MVP
"Dashing" Cody Rhodes
Albert Del Rio

I can see them hotshotting Dos Caras / Del Rio into the MITB if he debuts this week, otherwise that last slot could go to Chavo since Vicky is involved in the selection process. I can see Big Show sitting this one out since it's a ladder match, using his "Ankle injury" as the kayfabe reason. Hardy or McIntyre could be involved but they might get a singles match instead.

Raw
Jericho
Edge
Orton
Bourne
Miz
Morrison
Truth
Dibiase

Smackdown
Kane
Punk
Christian
Ziggler
Kingston
MVP
Big Show
Cody Rhodes

I see a Hardy vs McIntyre singles match

[Mr. Nerfect]

The RAW one was easy to predict. The only guy who sort of surprised me was DiBiase, because I thought they may have kept him out due to injury. I could have seen Yoshi Tatsu, Mark Henry, Zack Ryder or even William Regal making it in if that were the case.

So, with that match set, I'll predict SmackDown!'s:

1. Christian
2. CM Punk
3. Cody Rhodes
4. Dolph Ziggler
5. Kane
6. Kofi Kingston
7. Matt Hardy
8. MVP

Drew McIntyre won't be in due to the storyline writing him out, and I think Big Show's ankle keeps him out.

[DAMN iNATOR]

SD!
1. Christian
2. Ziggler
3. Matt
4. Punk
5. Kane
6. Kofi
7. MVP
8. Show

[XCaliber]

RAW:
Jericho
Edge
Bourne
Morrison
R-Truth
Orton
DiBiase
Miz


Well would you look at that I picked them all right! Already know that one of my choices is wrong in McIntye due to his current situation. So in that case it would only make sense to put his biggest rival in his place that being Matt Hardy besides he's got plenty of experience.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I'm really looking forward to both matches. In the case of the RAW bout -- everyone has a problem with pretty much everybody, or has some sort of tag team relationship with them. In the case of the likely SmackDown! match, you just know that the talent involved will come up with some cool shit. Both matches have a fresh feel to them, too -- specifically the RAW match, because it has some big stars.
