Who’s your early pick for MITB

[Instant Classic]

I would love Edge to win it, I don’t care if he shouldn’t be in another ladder match he doesn’t have to take a single ladder bump. Now that he seems to be heel, it’d be fitting for him to win one last world title again cashing in MITB once more.

As for the womens I’m hoping for Liv Morgan.

[welshpenguin]

Sami just for fun
Rea for the women

[Deleted]

Imma be saying Bron Breakker for the hell of it. I don't know when they'll stap the rocket to him but I'm always going to be saying "it'll be Bron" whenever we get one of these questions until he wins the world title. Yall already know that boy's up next.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

Edge. He's on Raw, so if Roman wins the "unification" match, he will take the WWE title and not interrupt the Universal run, and now that he's heel again, he can be the Ultimate Opportunist, and maybe even try a different spin on it.

[Nosnorb]

It's going to be Edge. Won his first WWE Title via a cash-in, and wins the WWE Title on his return with a cash-in.

[mistery]

No idea for the men, probably Bron like others mentioned, assuming he gets called up.
Probably Asuka or Io for the women (if Io gets called up, she's an incredibly strong favorite to win imo).

[ThankGodForSidJustice]

With the men it's kind of hard as there doesn't seem to be any up and comer being prepped for a big push. I guess maybe Riddle? I don't see them doing it with Bron as I think if he ever wins a title on the main roster he'll probably win it straight up instead of having to do the cheap cash in. They might just go with a very established guy. I'm guessing it will either be Riddle or lolz Brock.

With the women I'll say either Rhea or Liv. Rhea because it seems like she's being set up for the big post Mania push. Liv it's for more unfortunate reasons in that they're due a woman to fail a cash in as it hasn't happened yet and I can see her being the poor soul they do that to.

[Chiral]

Chad Gable or Sami seem like the kinds of heels they like giving MITB to.

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Edge, AJ are the obvious picks tho neither guy needs MITB for a title shot but still

Drew McIntyre is another who doesn't need it but I can see them giving it to him so he's my early pick. My dark horse pick is Riddle

[ChitownKnight]

I’d like to see Seth win the wwe title after mania, and then KO wins MITB, and KO swears he will cash in on a straight up match at mania 39, but then KO lies and cashes in on Seth before that

[koreycaskets]

Gonna go with Ziggler.

[A Platypus Rave]

Could see them giving it to Owens or Sami actually.

Maybe Drew?

regardless whoever gets it is cashing it in on the Raw Brand... cause I don't see the full on Magical Misery Tour stopping that way. (or currently stopping at this point.)

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

I feel like the really obvious choice right now is Sami, just given how he is as a heel.

people were saying Liv was going to win it last year so I wouldn't get your hopes up. In fact it's more likely that she's a victim of budget cuts before MITB takes place than her winning the match

Bron Brekker wins the men's. Vince is about to strap a rocket to him

I could be wrong as you never know with their budget cuts with how random and surprising some of them have been, but I think Liv will probably be ok. She's not getting that big of a push but she's got a Mania match (although this point is going to be less effective if they just continue adding teams and it becomes the get literally everyone on the card match), had a title feud and PPV match with Becky recently, had a decent showing in the Elimination Chamber, and had a near 40 minute Royal Rumble run. I don't think she would've got any of those things if she was someone who was in danger of being released. She not a chosen one by any means but I think she's someone who I think they like.

They could've easily cut her along with Ruby last year as they were a team at the time and basically in the same spot in the pecking order but they didn't and she's survived all these other cuts so they must see at see least something in her. However for whatever reason they just never seem to want to try to get her to that next level. It's just little half assed start and stop pushes here and there and then she falls back down the card again before it's time for another half hearted attempt to try something with her.

[Mozenrath]

Sami would make sense as a "thanks for re-signing".

Yeah maybe she'll be fine. I just think it's as likely or more likely than winning MITB. I'd say the likes of Tamina, Shotzi, Nikki are more likely to be cut than Liv but with how thin the Women's roster has become they really shouldn't be firing anyone, especially because of budget cuts as we know that to be bullshit since it was revealed that they're making record profits.

No idea when her contract is up but she should bet on herself and try and make a name for herself somewhere else. Impact I think could be good for her, I would've said AEW but they're booking over the last few months with building talent up has been a complete disaster. Liv could potentially be the no1 star in any division. She's just never had that big break yet

I would agree with that in that they are roughly the same. Tamina isn't going anywhere. If she was she would've been gone a long time ago as can't think a reason why she's always kept around. I think she pretty much has a job as long as she wants one. Shotzi and Nikki I would agree are probably in the most danger if you are just going by how they've been presented on TV lately.

If things aren't better for her whenever her contract is up as in she still hasn't won a belt yet or is still in the same spot then I think going somewhere else would probably be a good career move for her. AEW would probably pay better and she would get better exposure but I don't know if career wise it would a good move for her. She would likely just come in and then quickly get fed to Britt or Jade or both and then get banished to Dark like Ruby did. In a way she probably wouldn't be much better off then was in WWE. Probably would be protected a lot more and presented more credibly just due to AEW's booking methods them doing more squashes but at the same time she would worse exposure just because AEW doesn't give as much TV time to the women. Honestly I think Impact would be a better move. If you look at their roster I think she could easily be the #1 face and centerpiece of the division there. I mean I like Mickie James and all but when you put the belt on her at 40+ that's not a good sign. I've heard good things about Tasha Steelz but I've never seen her so I can't say. Don't get it all with Deonna Purazzo. Good worker but not a star in the slightest.

Good thing for Liv is she's also still pretty young as she's still only 27. So if she leaves in a few years at say 29-30 then goes somewhere else to build her name and then comes back say three later in likely a better spot she'll still only be like 33 which is the same age (Bianca, Bayley) and even younger (Charlotte, Becky) then most of the current main eventers right now.

Yeah, pretty much spot on and agree with most of what you said.

Yeah I get what you mean with Tamina. Her and Dana Brooke seem to have more lives than a cat.

Yeah my biggest fear about Liv going to AEW is exactly what you just said, that she gets fed to Britt/Jade like they've done with practically the rest of the division. If I'm liv I'd seriously consider Impact. I think AEW probably have the overall better roster but barely any of them are being used to their full potential. That would be a serious red flag if I'm someone like Liv, at least in impact she can be a big fish in a smaller pond and they'd be more likely to cash in on her potential.

Liv in impact would immediately be their big star, Mickie is a legend but like you said in her 40s. Deonna I kinda agree with you, she's a very good technical wrestler, in the top 2 or 3 but I don't think she's someone like Britt where you can build a division around. Honestly if I had a choice to sign anyone from Impact I'd sign Jordynn Grace over Deonna Purrazzo.

The things that AEW does have in its favour are more exposure and money. Some Women would take being a lower midcard talent in AEW than be at the top in impact because of more exposure and money and I get that. Keira Hogan for example probably would've got the push Tasha Steelz has had because most people thought she had the more potential out of the 2 of them when they were a tag team but she's really not done anything in AEW while Tasha has just become Knockouts champ. Another thing is that TK has just purchased ROH and you would think the majority of that division will be made up of AEW Women. You just know TK is going to take the titie of Deonna ASAP and put it on one of his own

You just know TK is going to take the titie of Deonna ASAP and put it on one of his own

I'm higher on Jordyanne too but I don't think I would say she's main event level either or at least on a consistent basis. I think she can be an effective as a bad ass upper midcard face who challenges for the title on a secondary PPV or maybe even wins it for a short spell but I don't think she has a higer ceiling then that. I know people complain about Britt's push and probably rightfully so but she's definitely a star there's no doubt about that. Major charisma and looks like a million bucks. She is a little injury prone and her in ring work is I guess a little shaky at but it's good enough especially considering all the other things she has going for her. Deonna seems like someone who should be a "good hand" in the midcard. She's basically a lesser version of Serena Deeb who is another super technician with not a lot of sizzle but imo a little bit better.

I guess a lot of it comes down to what is more important for you. People who just see it as a job and aren't really career oriented will just go whoever pays more. However sometimes taking the less money route can lead to a better financial situation in the long run. Like if someone like Liv for instance were to get released/leave and go to Impact and have say a three year run on top, I think it would give her much more leverage to get a better money deal if she ever decided to go back to WWE. As apposed to if say she went to AEW and was just another girl on the roster toiling away in the midcard. They probably either wouldn't be interested to bring her back or if they did it would be for less money and probably just to be in a midcard type role.

I guess one good thing with them having the ROH belt is that it would give something for a lot of the AEW women who aren't being utilized the greatest something to possibly win when they wouldn't have any shot of winning the World or TBS titles.
