The best choice for the men’s side is Big E. Imagine all the storytelling they could do to evolve New Day with that twist. isn't he out for like 4 months? Also at this point, I'm on board 100% for Sami Zayn winning it.

I'd like to see MITB just vanish for a few years to be honest. It's played out. They should just have someone use it very straightforward. "Hey, I'm getting the match this next PPV, here's my stipulation of choice", like RVD did. Better yet, do it quickly so that we don't have the briefcase hanging over every title match between the briefcase coming into play and it being cashed in, since that so often sucks out any kind of tension. That's probably as close to what you want that is feasibly going to happen, it's too ingrained to just King of the Ring and not do without any kind of kayfabe reasoning. So if it were me, and a lot of things can go wrong with this, give it to a big name and have them say “I’m cashing this in at SummerSlam right now, regardless of whose champion” and have them go on a tear towards that time, even helping the champ out from time to time closer to the show to prevent them from losing their guaranteed place. If they get injured near that time, someone else might be built up to slot in that place and you can do an angle later on when they’re back.

Here’s a thought. Book the winner to look good after winning instead of having them lose a ton because their eventual title win “resets” their credibility (it usually doesn’t, btw). Common sense stuff, really Or let them win their cash in... since again last two winners were Corbin who lost... and Braun who lost (and continued to lose against hte person he cashed in against constantly) As for Alexa... I get why they did it with not wanting Nia to lose to Ronda (and have Ronda as the champion after like her first real match) and not wanting Ronda to lose... as well as Nia's flip flopping of face and heel didn't exactly help her either. Alexa getting the title to get more heat so when Ronda destroyed her at summerslam would get a bigger reaction which worked... that said I kinda wished they just used her with the Case to keep her out of the title picture for a while still occasionally taunting the champion that if she wanted to she would be the champion...

Mens: Shane, it carries on the Mcmahon V Kofi angle and Shane can make a group of goons to counter TND and create a decent cash in opportunity and we just know Shane is winning the big belt once before he retires even if he only holds it for a cup of coffee.
Womens: Asuka or Charlotte, they both need a bit of heat back and for the sake of the brand split a relegation to 'Becky one belt' will happen sooner rather than later.

Yeah if you’re gonna give it to someone in the same vein as Edge in the first one, in the hope to elevate a guy, sorta thing..
I’d say Elias, Roode, and Sami would be your best bets.

Same. I’d love to see Zayn get a solid run in WWE on his own. I’m not sure who I’d go with on the Women’s side. Ember is a favorite of mine but I’d rather see her build up her character and have a few feuds before going for a Title. Maybe it’s Dana’s time to shine? I just can’t see her winning a Title.

Shane winning MITB sounds so hilariously f***ed up, I need to see it now.

Well, Braun did that last year, but the problem was that it ended up being Hell in a Cell that ended in NO CONTEST.

Welp, it's Lesnar so...f***.
Meltzer said sometime during the build McIntyre was scheduled to win it so they somehow changed it to Lesnar these past few weeks.

Given that you'd think he'd have wanted to step it up to show them what they were missing, but he was easily the least interesting dude in the match.

Yeah, as bullshit as the ending was, I'd still have been more annoyed if Drew won it. It'd have felt even more anticlimatic.

Well...I mean, it was creative's idea over a month ago. If it were "Vince had this idea while on the toilet after the pre-show" it might have actually gone somewhere...
