9 Man Money In The Bank

With the 9 man money in the bank just a week away I have to ask the question is 9 men too many?

When looking at past ladder matches the better ones are where two men can really click and get things going. These matches usually have the same amount of slow burning as a regular match and have enough set peices that it can satisfy both the "stunt junkie" wrestling fans as well as the ones tuning in to see a great match. In recent memory I am refering to Michaels/Jericho and Undertaker/Edge.

The problem with nine men is that its way too overcrowded. In my opinion the eight man ladder matches are as well, it doesn't leave room for a story or a chance to elevate talent. Yes you get the winner and that its more about the story going on throughout the year and when the winner will cash in but with about two true candidates to win (Christian and McIntyre) is there really need for the other seven.

Also I do believe that they will add another man for the match to make it ten participants, the person will most likely be Kofi Kingston as he is not on the card and if Kingston is placed in the MITB then my guess is he'll be one of the favorites.
