Would love to see William Regal randomly added to the Money in the Bank All-Star Match. Regal could pull Brad Maddox aside and pretend to give him helpful advice as a former General Manager of RAW, and maybe even hilariously intimidate him. Regal wouldn't be in it to win, but man would I mark out like a little bitch. Cena would have no trouble putting Regal over -- he once called Regal the most underrated performer in all of WWE.
Still thinking that RVD is the best choice to win the All-Star match. Not for any long run at the top, but just a way to make his return fucking mean something. He can cash in on Cena and get a short run and win a bunch of face vs. face matches before eventually dropping the title back to Cena.
CM Punk winning would make sense, too, if they decide to do something like Punk vs. Lesnar for the WWE Title or have Cena involved as a Triple Threat. Brock could then pin Cena and Punk would chase Brock for a bit.
Daniel Bryan winning would make sense if they wanted to do Cena vs. Bryan at SummerSlam as rumors suggest. I'm just not sure if they need to rush that potential money match. Bryan could be cost the match by an attacking Lesnar just like Punk. He could even be taken out by The Wyatt Family or something and build to Team Hell No and a partner facing The Wyatt Family at SummerSlam. I still want to see Del Rio vs. Bryan for the World Title.
As for the blue briefcase -- you can pretty much make a case for anyone but Swagger. It really just depends on who they want to randomly push. I don't think Sandow needs the briefcase, because his gimmick draws enough heat with a mere microphone. I think we could see Shield tension develop at this PPV, and while Ambrose is great and future greatness still, something about him winning just doesn't seem right. I could see him doing something really crazy off the ladder. Something about Fandango's gimmick just doesn't seem to demand the briefcase. He's another guy that I could see doing something really insane to pop the crowd and take himself out. Rhodes and Barrett are both in the same boat where they have all the tools, but the company may not want to push them right now. The briefcase would focus them, but I think Barrett could just start beating people up and Rhodes actually seems like he may one day soon be turning face to go against Sandow.
That leaves me with my personal choice, Antonio Cesaro. Aligned with Zeb Colter, the "boring" factor has been removed from Cesaro, who remains one of the WWE's best in-ring workers. Some of the stuff he does is just...wow. He commands credibility inside the ring and is a mix of an old-school aesthetic with a new-school high-impact approach and innovative nature. All he really needs is to be pushed. It should be noted that I think his personality shines under Colter. He's actually embraced it really well and gets to show flavor that he didn't as a serious Swiss man.
If Cesaro pulls down the blue briefcase at Money in the Bank, I will rejoice.
