Highlights:
- The anonymous GM is in charge of Raw for the night.
- AJ proposes to CM Punk to no response, which leads to Daniel Bryan proposing to AJ, with the same result.
- An online poll is made to determine if the fans want Michael Cole v Jerry Lawler tonight; 75% say yes.
- The final qualifying match for the World Heavyweight Championship MITB match is held; Sin Cara qualifies.
- The MITB pre-show match is announced as Kofi Kingston & R-Truth v Hunico & Camacho for the tag titles.
- Booker T and Josh Mathews join commentary for the Michael Cole v Jerry Lawler match.
- Santino Marella leads a search for who the anonymous GM is which takes him to beneath the ring; revealing Hornswoggle to have been the GM all along.
- CM Punk refuses to marry AJ, causing AJ to slap him. AJ then slaps Bryan and leaves by herself.

The only thing I'm looking forward to is Heath Slater.

I have a question regarding the RAW Money in the Bank.
Are they going to have more qualifiers or, is it just ganna be Show, Kane, Jericho and Cena. Cause, that'd be dumb ..

There is still four guys left to be put in the match as far as I am aware.

Nobody knows. If they do have more, it has to be tonight. But I'm predicting that it's just those four. Which I agree, is very dumb.

They have to be former World Champs though, right?

Apparently the guy who could be facing Slater tonight is:

Spoiler:

Hall of Famer Posts : 5979 Age : 27

Yeah, everyone in the match has to be a former World Champion.

Executive Posts : 3205 Age : 30 Location : Canada

Well, lets home that the Guest GM for tonight, adds four moe, cause if only 4 are in it, it won't even be worth watching ..

Hall of Famer Posts : 5979 Age : 27

I highly doubt they will leave the match at four, even the WWE creative team aren't that stupid.

They have to be former WWE Champions, to be more specific. The Miz comes to mind. Not sure who else is a legitimate possibility without looking at the roster.

It's a stupid rule regardless.

Miz should return and Qualify.
Rey Mysterio.
Hell .. Randy Orton if he can come back.

JBL?

SOMEONE TO SPICE THIS THING UP WITH SOME HIGHFLYING MOVES!

Mysterio isn't ready to come back and Orton is still serving his suspension.

And JBL? High flying?

Orton is still suspended I believe.

This concept has completely ruined the surprise behind Money In The Bank, I always looked forward to a hopeful shock winner.

Executive Posts : 3555 Location : New York

I said it from the start, it spoils the entire concept.

Hall of Famer Posts : 5979 Age : 27

I'm calling it now; John Cena will win and then cash in "fairly" on Punk for a match at Summerslam, where he will win and thus end the long reign of Punk.

Executive Posts : 3555 Location : New York

I'm tired of Punk as champion, it's been a real long time and he's been stale for a good portion of it, but Cena again is not the slightest bit better. Thus why a real MITB would be helpful in this situation.

Hall of Famer Posts : 5979 Age : 27

If anyone is to take the Championship from Punk I want it to be Bryan, he is definitely deserving of it and now is the best time for him to win it given how over he has become with the fans.

So, any suggestions as to who tonight's GM should/could be?

Personally I want to see a shock return of either the laptop or Mike Adamle; just to spice things up a bit.

Dixie Carter.

Sure, the two worst GMs in recent history...

Adamle wasn't all that bad. Who could forget the "Adamle Original" Championship Scramble?

Honestly, William Regal. One of the best GM's in recent years.

Hall of Famer Posts : 5979 Age : 27

In all seriousness though, I would have been fine with Zack Ryder as GM for RAW and Smackdown this week.
