WWE SummerSlam 2022: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True

5. Then Loses His MITB Privileges

Oh dear.

Sure, this is a far-fetched nightmare, but what if Theory works two quick matches on Saturday night? What if he loses to Bobby Lashley in short order, then gets goaded into putting his MITB briefcase on the line afterwards by Dolph Ziggler? What if Triple H doesn't look at Theory the same way Vince McMahon did?

Some fans out there might not have an issue with taking the case off Theory. Think of the bigger picture though: Money In The Bank is already creaking as a concept, and it can ill-afford another briefcase winner losing the thing before he/she cashes in. Nobody wants Theory to become this year's Otis, basically.

Ziggler also isn't exactly the future of the company. Putting MITB on him wouldn't satisfy, and it'd leave most with a sour taste in their mouths. WWE's priority should be pushing youth. Theory represents that, and he's talented enough to merit the spot.
