I wouldn't really see a problem with theming a PPV around it. Sure it isn't as long as the Rumble, but it would still be pretty cool to have a set PPV each year which is primarily known for MITB. It could help the PPV draw and it would be interesting to see that as the main event rather than a title match. They could make the match longer than it is at Wrestlemania, put more into it, and give some young guys more of a genuine chance to shine in the main event of a PPV.
I kind of like MITB as a modern Wrestlemania tradition, but I also believe that it has started to harm the Wrestlemania cards as it uses up too much talent and encourages lazy booking rather than exciting one on one match-ups.
I would be in favour of a Money in the Bank PPV. It would be an interesting concept for a show and it would make it different from all the other PPVs. Wrestlemania already has enough about it to draw, so MITB doesn't really help it too much. It could certainly help a regular PPV though.
