10 Reasons Sheamus Is The Right Choice To Be WWE Champion

3. It Had To Happen Eventually

Sheamus was Mr Money In The Bank, meaning that the cash in was always an inevitability. WWE had to execute on that storyline at some point, otherwise what's the point in ever making him Mr MITB to begin with? It had to happen and now was the right time. It would have been way less effective in the Rumble to Mania period, when the focus would have been on the Rumble winner and champion. As for the idea of him cashing in on the night of Mania, that would have been a repeat on last year. That leaves April to June, which is traditionally the time when WWE are bedding in the champion from Mania. As such, Sheamus really needed to cash in at Survivor Series or TLC, and they went with the November option.
