Prophecies of The Tocc

Money in the Bank 2013


MITB Ladder Match for a WWE Title Match

Prediction:Kane's Replacement
Prophecy:This match is stacked - billed as the "Money in the Bank All-Stars". Daniel Bryan is a top pick here. He's on fire and WAY over with the crowd. However, wwe.com featured a photo of him closing out Raw holding the briefcase with the caption "The Future Mr. Money In The Bank?" Maybe I'm overthinking this but that just seems like the kiss of death. The obvious alternative would be a comeback victory for RVD. But since it's a ladder match, he doesn't actually need to win in order to shine. Kane was not booted from this match just to put the Wyatts over on Raw. I smell a curveball. Maybe WWE does Mark Henry a solid and Cena drops his title early in the card. Then he realizes that his "The Champ Is Here" t-shirts won't sell so he enters this match as Kane's replacement and regains his title in the same night.
Result:Randy Orton wins

MITB Ladder Match for a World Heavyweight Title Match

Prediction:Cody Rhodes
Prophecy:It's tough to pick a favorite in this field of long shots, but I'm jumping on the mustachioed bandwagon. Cody deserves it and could use the "Mr. Money in the Bank" gimmick, since he's pretty much rode the mustache gimmick as far as it can possibly go. With the current World Heavyweight champ ADR being a heel, I'd look for a face in this field... but they're all heels! However, with Cody and Sandow saying "we will win", it seems inevitable that it will come down to the two of them and one will have to take it. This will drive a wedge between Cody and Sandow, and one will turn face so they can have a mini feud. Cody is barely a heel right now and there's no way Sandow's character could work as a face, so it seems like Cody will turn and eventually focus his attention on ADR.
Result:Damien Sandow wins

John Cena vs. Mark Henry

WWE Championship

Prediction:Mark Henry
Prophecy:Cena wins this 9 times out of 10, but I'm starting to think WWE will throw Mark Henry a bone and let him win the title before he actually does retire. Cena can win it back as the MITB winner or at SummerSlam.
Result:John Cena wins

Alberto del Rio vs. Dolph Ziggler

World Heavyweight Championship

Prediction:Alberto del Rio
Prophecy:This is a rematch from Payback but the heel/face roles are now reversed. The winner of the World Title MITB match, which consists of heels, will be gunning for the World Champ, so I don't see ADR with the title for all that long. However, championships are rarely hot potatoes and I don't see ADR dropping the belt so quickly.
Result:Alberto del Rio wins

Chris Jericho vs. Ryback

Prediction:Ryback
Prophecy:Seems like Y2J's new job is to put guys over.
Result:Ryback wins
1 Point Awarded

AJ Lee vs. Kaitlyn

Divas Championship

Prediction:AJ Lee
Prophecy:Not sure who will wind up with the title when this night is over, but I don't see this feud ending anytime soon. If Kaitlyn is going to win the title back it will be at SummerSlam.
Result:AJ Lee wins
1 Point Awarded

Curtis Axel vs. The Miz

Intercontinental Championship

Prediction:Curtis Axel
Prophecy:Axel retains. There's no reason for Miz to hold the title and Axel's push isn't over.
This is my lock.
Result:Curtis Axel wins

Rollins & Reigns vs. The Usos

WWE Tag Team Championship

Prediction:Rollins & Reigns
Prophecy:This is the "kickoff" match, so I'm inclined to go with the faces. But I feel like the Shield will all lose their titles at the same time, and since Ambrose isn't in a singles match, they will probably retain and keep this feud alive. Of course Ambrose could lose his title the next night on Raw, but I see the three of them with gold for a while longer. Usos will be the tag champs, just not yet.
Result:Rollins & Reigns win
