10 WWE Superstars Who Would Benefit From A Raw Money In The Bank Match

It's understandable to think that the last thing Roman Reigns needs right now is another accolade. The three-time WWE Champion is coming off his third consecutive WrestleMania main event, a bout that saw him retire The Undertaker. He'll be just fine without a Money in the Bank briefcase to carry around.

This time, though, it's not about Reigns - it's about someone else. It's pretty much a given that the headline bout for WrestleMania 34 will see Brock Lesnar defend the Universal Title against Reigns, but do we really need to sit through another Royal Rumble victory and winter title chase for 'The Big Dog'?

If Reigns won a Money in the Bank briefcase, he could become the first man to cash it in at WrestleMania with advance notice. There'd be no unpleasant surprise of Reigns ending up in the title match a couple of months out, and a SmackDown superstar could win the Royal Rumble (or a Raw guy, if the company decides to shift to a triple threat match). MITB would essentially lock Reigns's 'Mania plans in early and open up other storytelling possibilities.
