WWE changed its July PPV to Money in the Bank. I know I thought this meant no more MitB at Wrestlemania, but apparently I was wrong:

Just announced: MONEY IN THE BANK Qualifying Matches will begin TONIGHT on Raw. Watch LIVE at 9/8 CT on @USA_Network!! #WWE

So does this mean two MitBs this year? Or more?

Could also mean that WWE is now using the MITB gimmick as a new thing for a "Royal Rumble" like gimmick where the winner of the match goes to Summerslam and face their brands title. If they do this, then consider me a happy buyer.

After all, Ladders matches are always stretched out...

An all money in the bank PPV? Bad idea. I honestly don't want to list why but it's a bad idea and just how many cases are we going to have floating around?

Don't know how much attention you've been paying to the new gimmick PPVs, but the PPV probably wouldn't be all MitBs so much as the PPV focus would be on Money in the Bank.

I was meaning that if every title match were MitB, just 2 would be okay. My other concern is what contenders for the two big titles would be good to use, the smaller guys seem more entertaining in those matches. Just to throw out some random names
Cena-small enough to work
Batista-all power so the ladder is just a weapon
Punk-already proven so yes
Taker-can't see him doing it (hasn't he only done one ladder match?)
Jericho-proven as well

They need opportunists that can put on good ladder matches in these.

It'd be hilarious to have five guys all with cases, all deciding to use their money in the bank
cases one after the other everytime a new guy wins...

We could end up with a day where a belt finds 5 different owners, and then all of them invoke rematch clauses simultaneously! Hell, we could have a money in the belt match where just winning the match gives you a case that makes you whatever champion you wanna be automatically.

*groan* what a stupid idea for a ppv.
