What's the problem to have two men's Money in the Bank ladder matches (one for RAW Superstars and one for SmackDown Superstars) and no women's Money in the Bank ladder match (there would be women's title matches, however) at the WWE Money in the Bank PPV these days like they did back in 2010 and 2011?

Don't people complain already that MITB only really has one or two guys who should be in the running for a title shot, and the others are spotmonkeys and filler? How could it not be worse on the men's roster to fill two matches.
Feels like a loaded question, to be honest.

After this years fiasco's Id be ok with MITB disappearing for a while all together until they have someone they actually want to push. The last few years have been disasters (Otis & Miz, Asuka being handed the belt, Lesnar doing nothing to win, Braun being flippinng heel and face every week and losing his title shot to a no contest in HIAC, Corbin, etc..)

I guess I'll vote no, because I don't believe the women's MITB should go away. But in general I wouldn't be opposed to having two separate men's matches.

Nah because realistically it gives one guy and one woman a year for creative to do something interesting with them. They could switch brands, challenge either champion they want, and always have a potential storyline.
Of course, history has shown us half the time they just have them have a losing streak and then get lucky at the last minute.
Just like the Rumble, I’m a big fan of one men’s and one women’s stip matches so it works better than one for each brand.

No. It was another great gimmick the WWE sadly began to overproduce as they usually do. One was enough to give fans enough intrigue, but with two, you knew one of them was always gonna cash in right away so they’d only have one going forward anyway.
At this point I think MITB needs to be retired for a few years. Most booking of the winners is lazy and/or sucks so why not give it a rest for a few years.

With no specific ties to an event like the Royal Rumble has to WrestleMania, I'd like to see both MitB briefcases (men's and women's) be used more as a device than a "Well, it's early summer. Time to award a new MitB briefcase!" annuity. It can still be locked into a time-frame to cash in, but I think not knowing when or where the match is even going to be called would make it more exciting. It could go back to WrestleMania one year. It could take place at SummerSlam one year. Kinda shifts things around a bit.
But no, keep it to men's and women's, with the winner being able to choose which championship they want to gun for.

I want to say yes but then the women will want the same and that's just too many MITB matches in one night for them all to be interesting

Why should the women's one go away? With having two men's ones since there are two men's titles, shouldn't there be two women's matches since there are two women's titles?

If you are going to have one each for the Men’s RAW & SD rosters then you would need to have 2 for the Woman rosters also. So having just one each for all the Men’s and Woman’s rosters just makes more sense from a PPV time limit point of view or then the MITB PPV becomes a two day event also.

1 briefcase for the men and women. Do the women’s match at Wrestlemania and men’s at SummerSlam. This way it spaces them out, both still get a briefcase to build stories around, and it doesn’t feel like overkill. Keep the 1 year limit as well so women have until the next wrestlemania, and men have until the next Summerslam to case them in.

There's no reason to scrap the women's one and 4 would be complete overkill. I like having the 2 rosters compete against each other for the opportunity anyway, makes it feel like a bigger deal.

There should only be one MitB match, it should be men only, and it should be the main event.

There should only be one Money In The Bank briefcase for each division. One for the men and one for the women. This way, we don't which Champion they'll cash in on. I would add a briefcase for the mid-card Champions and a briefcase for the Tag Team Champions, but that would be something TNA would do, and overdo it.

Counter point, the Money In The Bank idea has become stale on both ends. So why not have a men’s and women’s tag team MITB match instead this year. Same rules apply except winning team gets a shot at any tag titles anytime within a year.

A gimmick that leads to nothing but lazy, repetitive and asinine booking? Yes, lets add more of them!! The concept had run it's course. End it.

The RAW brand MITB winner is eligible to cash in his red briefcase for a WWE Championship match while the SmackDown MITB is eligible to cash in his blue briefcase for the Universal Championship. He is not eligible to cash for his other brand's title.

Because the red and blue briefcases were ugly as . The Women's MITB briefcase is probably the best looking MITB briefcase they've had that wasn't RVD's personalized one.

I would have MITB matches (1 woman & 1 man) at Wrestlemania so we can limit the meaningless filler matches. At least this way the match would have some sort of relevance. Id change it up a little though and have 2 RAW, 2 SD and 2 NXT competitors. RAW & SD competitors can only cash in on their champions but a NXT winner has the option to cash in on a main roster champion in a "call up" sense. Id also put some stipulations on them. 1st you cant cash in on that nights main event and 2nd you have until SummerSlam to cash in or you lose the case.
Id also like to see the KOTR PPV & tournament brought back. The "King" gimmick they try to give people for winning it can be dropped as it never gets anyone over any more but Id like to see the winner get a title shot at Survivor Series
