How would you have handled the Money in the Bank Cash-in?
Long time reader, first topic.
Jack Swagger took the suprise win at WM26 and then tried to cash in the briefcase on Raw the following night against Cena but was forced to retreat before the match could begin. He then travelled to SmackDown and defeated Chris Jericho to become World Heavyweight Champion. This seems to have gone down pretty well despite the lack of build up. But it's pretty evident that WWE have cashed in the breifcase this early so that they can do it again at the Money In The Bank PPV in a couple of months time. But how do they arrive at this PPV? Do they say "well we like the idea of having someone with a random title shot but Jack cashed in early so we'll do it again"? Here's how I would have done it. I'll stick with Swagger as the winner. But I wouldn't have had him try to cash in against Cena, only to be beaten back and then beat Jericho. This is WWE's "subtle" way of saying "Cena > Jericho" or "Raw > SD". I would have had Swagger play the heel over a couple of weeks, bragging about his title shot and giving him a little bit of build by beating upper-midcarders like DiBiase, Punk, Mysterio, etc. Then, when Swagger tried to cash in, I would have Christian - as the de-facto "runner-up" interfere and cost him the win. This would give us a logical reason to have another MitB match and even name a PPV after it as the original MitB winner never got a fair shake at cashing in. But how would you do it? |
