Royal Rumble 2021: 2 things that shouldn’t happen at the PPV and 3 things that should – Roman Reigns’ title feud, Goldberg wins WWE Championship?

#2 Shouldn’t happen at Royal Rumble 2021 – Failed Money in the Banks cash-in

Miz deserves to make the most of this contract

Will Miz cash-in his MITB contract at Royal Rumble 2021? Last year at Hell in a Cell, Miz defeated Otis to win the Money in the Bank contract. He then tried to cash-in his contract at TLC during the WWE Championship match between Drew McIntyre and AJ Styles. Although he couldn’t get his hands on the title, Miz got his Money in the Bank contract back on a technicality as it was John Morrison who had cashed-in his MITB contract.

Now, Miz has declared that he will seize an opportunity to cash-in his contract during the title match between McIntyre and Goldberg at Royal Rumble. Goldberg is expected to win the WWE Championship at the pay-per-view as it is the only title that he hasn’t won yet. It seems impossible that Miz will successfully pin Goldberg to win the title at the pay-per-view.

Therefore, one can’t help but wonder if there will be a failed MITB cash-in at Royal Rumble 2021? Despite the ‘shock’ factor, it wouldn’t be a wise decision for Miz to go through so much trouble only to have him misuse the one opportunity he has at winning the world title.

Since WWE has already waited for so long, they can wait another couple of months before Miz loses his beloved briefcase. However, if Miz ends up cashing-in his MITB contract, he should walk out of Royal Rumble with the WWE Championship.
