I’m surprised people still like the MITB concept.
Whi i initially loved it, through the law of diminishing returns it’s really lost it’s edge. I don’t like having the prestige of the main belts beingundermined with yearly cash in title changes.
I think a MITB match once every two years or once every four years could make it a more prestigious event. It’s a golden ticket to winning the title and if you lose the ladder match you may never get another opportunity again.
This would also allow you to put the briefcase on newer talent who could potentially hold the briefcase for well over a year and lead to some long interesting story arcs.
Won’t ever happen, but I’m just sick of the current format.
They’ve definitely cocked it up, the best cash ins are shock ones, not when they tease it every single week.
What would be a new idea is the winner gets an injury and disappears for a while, only to return out of the blue and cash in.
Or they win it on Smackdown then make an unexpected cash in on the Raw champion during a PPV.
