It's not like it would be expected but it would add something new and fresh. It could just be a one time thing. I don't think it would really downgrade the MITB match if done right. The winner could have gone through hell to earn that opportunity and then some guy tries to take it all away from him. It'll just add another obstacle in his path if he retains the briefcase. After you look back it'll make him look even more deserving to have won the briefcase and the other guy more hated.

Also, another idea would be if they add a stipulation to the briefcase similar to the hardcore title. Falls count anywhere at anytime. This would tempt the holder to cash it in right away since all-comers will be going after him. I don't think the winner would be able to hold out for that long so they could make the falls count anywhere, anytime rule last only a month after winning the MITB.
