WWE Money In The Bank 2020: 10 Things That Must Happen

6. Wyatt Family Madness Goes Cinematic

It's been a tumultuous year for the Universal Title, and the belt hasn't felt truly worthwhile since Seth Rollins beat Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam 2019. After that, the wheels kinda' fell off the wagon. Bray Wyatt was forced into the title scene when he really didn't need to be, Goldberg was given a short reign and now Braun Strowman randomly has the thing.

WWE's booking hasn't been good.

Nobody needs to see a straight up singles match in which Braun squashes his old cult leader either. If the company expect this one to more than an excuse to hit fast forward, then they need to add some sizzle and spice by way of cinematic trickery. It, as 'Mania 36's wacky 'Firefly Fun House' showpiece with John Cena proved, is perhaps the best way forward for Wyatt.

The full thing doesn't need to be cinematic (it can start as a proper match and then sink into madness), but a 10-minute plodder won't do anyone any favours. Besides, cinematic lunacy is the only way to protect Bray.
