Jeff Hardy is my pick to win it, from a "what I think will happen" standpoint, but I'm not sure if he needs to. The guy is still perpetually over. I think Jeff would get just as over killing Mr. Kennedy with an insane Swanton Bomb, or something of the like. Jeff can then feud with whoever he kills, and go over them at Backlash. Hell, a change of brands would do the guy wonders. There's no reason why Jeff can't take the ECW Title off Chavo Guerrero. Some might see it as a step down, but I'd love to see it.
Personally, I think Chris Jericho winning would be the best route to go. Many might not think that he needs it, but the guy's returned was botched pretty badly. They brought him back right before the Road to WrestleMania started, and yeah. It just hasn't seemed as epic as it should have. A Jericho MITB win would hopefully remind everyone of just who he is.
If Hardy does win the MITB, which would be a good bet, I'm actually hoping he goes over to SmackDown!, and challenges The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship. Jeff is at the stage where he could be the top face for the brand, and Taker might actually consider losing to Jeff this time. Another Ladder Match between the two where Jeff wins the World Heavyweight Title would be a nice moment.
