I'm not the biggest RVD mark around. Back when he was in the WWE, I got that he was "cool," but I was just never that into him. That being said, having him win Money in the Bank and cash in on John Cena to close the show would be a pretty amazing ending to a PPV. Especially if you have Brock Lesnar cost CM Punk and Daniel Bryan the match (he dumps the ladder as Punk and Bryan are fighting on top of it). You then have the added drama of RVD possibly being a Paul Heyman Guy. You put him in face vs. face matches against top guys over the next few months and enjoy the ride.
CM Punk could also win the red briefcase, because he's The Best in the World and it'd be pretty impressive for him to be the only multi-time winner of the match as well as a three-time winner. Punk cashing in in Philly on John Cena would be tremendous too. You'd probably do Punk vs. Cena vs. Lesnar for the WWE Title at SummerSlam, which is a pretty huge match and could continue the story of who Paul Heyman is going to help. He can imply it doesn't matter who wins, as long as Cena loses and then cost Punk the title to Lesnar, setting up a one-on-one match between the two for Night of Champions.
Daniel Bryan winning the WWE Championship contract would no doubt be cool. A lot of people are expecting him to announce that he will face John Cena ahead of time at SummerSlam, but I think the Philly crowd will hate the idea of John Cena retaining the WWE Title and not having to contend with anyone. If they want to do Bryan vs. Cena at SummerSlam, how about they have Henry pin Cena with a series of World's Strongest Slams to emphatically become the new WWE Champion. Henry roars in victory when Daniel Bryan's theme hits, and Bryan heads to the ring and says he doesn't want to wait any longer to be the WWE Champion. Bryan asks Philly if they want him to cash in right there and then. "YES! YES! YES!"
Henry's all mad, but stands and fights. Bryan's speed and kicks manage to allow him to get some shots in as the crowd is hopefully going nuts. Bryan cuts Henry down and begins to kick his chest, but Henry catches a leg of Bryan, picks up Bryan and backs him into the corner. He takes a second to regather himself and charges in, but Bryan dodges and goes back to the kicks, following it up with the roundhouse to the head. Bryan covers Henry, but Mark powers out at two, sending Bryan flying, but Bryan simply starts bobbing his head with his "in the zone" thing he's been doing. Bryan goes for The YES! Lock on Henry, and even manages to lock it in perhaps, but Henry just powers Bryan right out. As he's getting back to his feet, however, Bryan jumps right into a guillotine choke attempt on Henry, who manages to get to a vertical basis even with Bryan on him, and then clasps his arms around Bryan's back, locking him in a bear hug. It becomes a war of attrition, as Bryan keeps his choke in, but is clearly under the pressure from Henry, who has got the power advantage, but he's losing air fast and Henry drops to one knee as Bryan screams "YES!". The referee checks Henry's arm -- once, twice...no, Henry manages to spring to life and tosses Bryan around into a World's Strongest Slam. Henry takes in the oxygen and begins to laugh to himself, realiszing that he almost lost the WWE Championship on the night he finally won it. Henry hooks the leg, 1-2-Bryan kicks out! Henry cannot believe it. JBL, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler act like kicking out of the World's Strongest Slam is like kicking out of a nuclear explosion. Henry, in a rage, hits Bryan with a big splash and covers again. Bryan, yet again, manages to shock everybody by kicking out. Henry can't believe it. He grabs the referee and gives them a World's Strongest Slam. Hopefully the crowd is booing like crazy for that. Henry just laughs to himself but then turns around into an Attitude Adjustment from a recovered John Cena. "What a sore loser!" - JBL. Daniel Bryan, holding his ribs, manages to see the downed Henry in position for his Flying Headbutt. Bryan hits the move just as another referee has head down to the ring. Bryan gets the cover, but Henry kicks out at two. This kick-out actually shocks Bryan for a moment, as even he is taken out of his bubble for a moment. Bryan looks over at the recovering Henry, and then slaps him across the face. The announcers are confused as to why Bryan just did that, but their questions are answered when a pissed off Henry goes for The World's Strongest Slam right away, only for Bryan to float around and use Henry's own momentum to get him down and in position for The YES! Lock again. Henry goes to power out like he did earlier, but Bryan uses his leg to repeatedly kick Henry in the head. Henry may even try to power out one more time, but Bryan again goes backs to the kicks from The YES! Lock position and pulls right back. Henry has to eventually tap and Daniel Bryan has become the new WWE Champion. Bryan celebrates as Henry begins to recover and get to his feet. Bryan's music is cut and he gets a microphone. He tells Mark that it was nothing personal, but he just felt that this was his moment tonight. He offers his hand to Henry but warns him not to try and World's Strongest Slam him, because he's got a counter for it. Henry thinks about it and then shakes Bryan's hand and gives him a hug. Henry gets on the mic and says that it don't matter how long it were for -- Mark Henry was the damn WWE Champion. He swells up with tears and presumably gets a nice, respectful reaction from the WWE Universe. He then charges Bryan from behind and knocks him to the mat. He then picks Bryan up and hits the new WWE Champion with The World's Strongest Slam. "Nothing personal, Daniel. It's just what I do!"
The immediate story is Daniel Bryan vs. Mark Henry, with Henry and Cena facing each other on RAW to decide who gets to name when they get their rematch. Henry and Cena probably do the exact same match as they did at Money in the Bank, maybe with a little expanded storytelling, but Henry ends up getting frustrated and getting himself purposely disqualified. "It don't matter when I get my title match! I'm winning it back!" He proceeds to try and hurt Cena, but Daniel Bryan hits the ring and starts kicking Henry. Mark shoves Bryan off him or something and goes to charge him, but Bryan low-bridges Henry over the top rope and then hits a suicide dive on Henry before getting back in the ring and leading the fans in a "YES!" chant. Cena and Bryan then have a stare-down to close the show.
Week two sees Bryan face Henry in Henry's contractual rematch, and there Bryan cleanly retains the title, however they want to do that, and from there we head towards Bryan vs. Cena at SummerSlam.
