WWE Money in the Bank - By The Odds

2. Braun Strowman

Vegas Odds: 2/1

Why He Will Win: Braun Strowman has shown unbelievable feats of superhuman strength. The strong man has lifted trucks off the ground and toppled ambulances onto their sides. On the most recent episode of RAW, Strowman broke a ladder in two...with his bare hands. Unlike the rest of the field, the cold steel of WWE's ladders don't intimidate Strowman. He has proven to master anything in his way. The ladder shouldn't be any different.

Why He Won't: Winning the MITB Ladder Match requires more than brute strength. In fact, no true giant has ever won the MITB Ladder Match. This is likely due to their over-reliance on strength and brute force. In a match like this, Strowman will need to use his intellect to achieve victory and he has not proved that he is capable of doing so.

1.The Miz

Vegas Odds: 11/10

Why He Will Win: As a former Money in the Bank winner, The Miz has already proven that he has what it takes to win the illustrious briefcase. The 2010 Miz was good; but, only a shadow of the performer The Miz has become today. The Miz has shown that he is the WWE's most opportunistic Superstar and that is why Las Vegas has him as the odds-on favorite to win this year's match.

Why He Won't: We've seen this film before. The Miz has won Money in the Bank and parlayed that victory into becoming WWE Champion. He rode that wave of success all the way to the main event of WrestleMania XXVII, where he defeated John Cena in a successful WWE Championship defense. While The Miz often reminds the WWE Universe that he was the main event of WrestleMania, many fail to even remember his participation in that match. The Miz didn't steal that show. Instead, it was quite the opposite. He played second fiddle to what was the beginning of The Rock vs John Cena feud and that's what people were talking about after WrestleMania XXVII. The WWE Champion should never play second fiddle, especially after successfully defending their championship on wrestling's biggest stage. This is why The Miz makes a better Intercontinental Champion where he won't be expected to be the face of the company. This is also why he won't be granted another serious world championship opportunity with the MITB briefcase.
