Money in the Bank preview

Read on for my ideas for booking tonight's Smackdown-brand WWE Network special.

-- Kickoff:
- Hype Bros vs. Colons:
Smackdown already has New Day, American Alpha, and Breezango as face tag teams. The Hype Bros just aren't going to get any traction there. The Colons get the win over the rusty duo, setting up a rematch on Smackdown leading to splitting the Bros with a Mojo/Ryder feud. There's not a lot else to do with them, so they might as well face each other with the attempt to have the veteran Ryder give Mojo the rub. Bitter Ryder could be pretty fun.


-- MITB:
- Bonus Match: Luke Harper vs. Aiden English:
English does his thing and Harper comes out to shut him up. Luke wins.


- Naomi vs. Lana:
Lana with the surprise upset. They might as well see what they have with her and try to have another credible female performer.

- Women's MITB:
I'm going with Becky to give her the rub of being the first female MITB winner and rewarding her for SO MANY LOSSES AND ATTACKS. 

- Usos vs. New Day:
Usos with a chain to the head or something to get the dirty win and set up a rematch. Jimmy and Jey shouldn't be an afterthought in this feud. 

- Men's MITB: 
Sami because AJ, Shinsuke, and Owens shouldn't need it to get a credible title feud, Corbin should be making his way up the card regardless, and Ziggler's not someone I want in the WWE Title picture at all. They can have Corbin try to take the briefcase from Zayn in the next feud. I like the idea of Owens vs. Zayn for the WWE Title at WM34 or right afterward, so this can set some groundwork for that.

- Orton vs. Jinder: 
The Singhs get physical with the legends at ringside, giving Jinder the opening to clock Randy with the title and retain. I think I'd have Sami's win end the show instead of Orton losing in his hometown in front of his dad.

More wrestling coming up.
