So, Sandow is a complete jobber. Think everyone pretty much knows that. That in mind I decided to look up just how much he has lost / won since winning the briefcase (televised only, naturally, and I'm not counting Ziggler being in the Rumble or battle royals), and then to do the same from the time each previous Money in the Bank holder won it to the point when they cashed in (including the cash-in itself) and rank them. Might make for an interesting bit of comparison. I've ordered it from the best win / loss record to the worst. Edge (2007): 1-0 John Cena: 1-0 Kane: 1-0 Randy Orton: 7-1 Rob Van Dam: 7-3 CM Punk (2009): 10-5 CM Punk (2008): 15-12 Edge (2005): 15-12-1 Alberto del Rio: 4-3 The Miz: 10-9 Jack Swagger: 1-1 Daniel Bryan: 15-17-1 Dolph Ziggler: 25-45 Damien Sandow: 2-10 I'm actually amazed Bryan is that close. It felt like when he had the briefcase he did nothing but lose. Granted, most of the wins were when he first got it and he largely did mostly lose in the build up to him cashing in. It's also weird that most of these are winning percentages - the only ones who don't have them are Bryan, who is close, and Ziggler and Sandow. Granted, both of them are complete blowouts. Also, one small SmackDown spoiler on the subject... {Spoiler}Sandow's actually 2-11. |

I'm convinced Sandow will lose his cash in (if he even manages to not lose the brief case somehow.)

Occurs to me I completely forgot about Mr. Kennedy. I'll add him in later.

I'm actually kind of amused by Sandow jobbing now because I'm half convinced that the Smackdown MITB is cursed. I remember that as soon as he lost his first match after winning MITB the raw thread started spamming variants of "MITB CURSE ACTIVATE!" and the prophecy came true.

Edge (2005): 15-12-1 Dolph Ziggler: 25-45 This right here signifies the main issue with the product today when trying to push someone. Edge had the briefcase for nine months, averages one match per week, and wins a majority of the time. Over the course of those nine months he feuded with Chris Benoit, Kane and Matt Hardy - all of which he won in the end. Dolph Ziggler on the other hand had seventy matches (average of 2.5 per week), loses a vast majority of them, and over the course of those nine months only had two notable feuds, with Randy Orton and John Cena - both of which he lost. And it shows with their lasting legacies. Edge is known as one of the best World Champions of the past decade, whilst Ziggler's title reigns have been complete jokes. |

I guess to be fair, Sandow mostly lost before he won the thing too. Though that really just makes it worse. |

Dolph Ziggler: 25-45
That is awful, that's like the Cavs without Lebron. Then he FINALLY cashes in and wins the title, gets a concussion, loses the title/turns face, and is now losing to Cesaro and Wyatt. I am not optimistic on his future.

I am thinking this whole Rhodes versus the corporation storyline is going to build until finally Cody beats ADR for the WHC. Then Sandow will try to cash in, get hit with the cross rhodes, and lose.

As much as I like Sandow, I really want that to happen now, especially if Damien is working on behalf of HHH/Stephanie, and Cody defies all three of them in winning. |

Sandow shouldnt be anywhere near the WHC.. as bad as that title is right now having a useless waste of space like Sandow as champ is a killer for the title
