| Re: What route would you take for MITB? Good answers so far. I think its important to bring the MITB case back to its original roots. Instant credibility for a sneaky heel win ala Edge. I love the idea of a heel winning it and cheating to win his first title.
Although I see Jericho most likely getting it as he seems to need it the most, but it would have to be against Edge once he regains it off The Undertaker post mania. Like JohnnyMayCry said, whoever wins this MITB is in for a long spring and summer holding a briefcase because there wont be any time or room to play off a new rivalry.
It would almost be better if whoever won the MITB case didnt actually carry it around all the time. The announcers could simply mention it in passing. It would be nice to see the winner only bring the case out whenever its relevant. For example, if the champion is in a 3 in 1 handicap match against the MITB winner and two other dudes. Once they win, he hands in the briefcase type of thing. Or the MITB winner could start randomly showing up to the champions matches and kinda just hovering around the outside of the ring with the briefcase and tease using it.
There are many possiblilities. I would have preffered to see them let Punk have a chance, but whoever wins this one it wont be all that special to me unless they go heel. |
