Prophecies of MCM0530

Money in the Bank 2017


Jinder Mahal vs. Randy Orton

WWE Championship

Prediction:Jinder Mahal
Prophecy:Jinder isn't dropping the title anytime soon. WWE is making too much of a big deal out of the whole expansion into the Indian market for him to give it right back. He's probably just keeping it warm for Super Cena to finally break Flair's record.
Result:Jinder Mahal wins

Money in the Bank Ladder Match

For a WWE Championship Match Contract

Prediction:Baron Corbin
Prophecy:AJ and Owens are already Championship material. Nakamura ended Smackdown holding the briefcase, so that pretty much killed his chances. Dolph is just going to keep getting held down (plus he already won the briefcase and cashed in). The only two that really make sense here are BFC and Zayn. The briefcase is usually more interesting with a heel, so I'm going with Corbin.
Result:Baron Corbin wins
1 Point Awarded

Money in the Bank Ladder Match

For a SmackDown Women's Championship Match Contract

Prediction:Carmella
Prophecy:I would love to see Natalia or Tamina with the briefcase. Neither of them have ever been given a real chance (and unfortunately that will most likely continue at MITB). That leaves Becky Lynch (who has lost all her momentum with the arrival of Charlotte), Charlotte (who doesn't need the briefcase to get title shots), and the dark horse, Carmella. I can definitely see Carmella winning the briefcase here and cashing in later in the night.
Result:Carmella wins
1 Point Awarded

The Usos vs. The New Day (2 of the 3)

WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship

Prediction:The Usos
Prophecy:I assume New Day will eventually hold the blue straps, but I think this is way too early. Usos will retain here and carry the Championship into Summerslam.
Result:The New Day (Kofi & Big E) win
0 Points Awarded

Naomi vs. Lana

WWE SmackDown Women?s Championship

Prediction:Lana
Prophecy:I believe whoever wins here will lose the title to Miss MITB immediately, so this is a very tough decision. I'm picking Carmella for the MITB match, so it makes more sense for her to cash in on a babyface (Naomi), but I think Lana has a good chance here so she can make a quick impact but not have to carry the championship quite yet. I am going with Lana because I think building her character is more important.
Result:Naomi wins
0 Points Awarded

The Hype Bros vs. The Colons

Kickoff Match

Prediction:The Hype Bros
Prophecy:One of the Bros will be turning on the other, but I don't think it will happen until they get their title shot. Hype Bros will win here and the Colons will continue to be wasted talent.
This is my lock.
Result:The Hype Bros wins
