WWE's July pay-per-view is taking place this Sunday, July 14th. Money in the Bank has a number of solid matches on the card and I have the complete match card below, along with predictions for each match. There are also a number of rumors heading into the WWE show. Kane is not going to be participating, so who will be taking his place, if anyone? Where is the McMahon family drama going? Also, Rob Van Dam will be making his return to the WWE's 2013 show in Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center.

In the storylines Kane has been injured by the Wyatt Family and will be unable to perform at Money in the Bank. F4Wonline.com has reported that there are rumors that Bray Wyatt may be the one to replace Kane in the match, but he really can't be considered and "All-Star" as of yet. Other possibilities could be Kofi Kingston and the Big Show, who have both been off TV for a while.

WWE Money in the Bank Match Card with Predictions:

Pre-Show:

WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns vs. The Usos

The Usos are a good young tag team, but I don't seem them beating The Shield. However, The Shield's momentum has been completely killed the last month or so, which is very disappointing. Still, if WWE were smart, they would keep the belts on Reigns and Rollins for a while longer. How would it look after all these top superstars losing to The Shield the months before and The Usos beat them? I see The Shield coming out the victors.

Pay-Per-View:

Chris Jericho vs. Ryback

Unfortunately, part of the reason why Jericho is so valuable to the WWE is his willingness to lose. Ryback hasn't won a pay-per-view match in a very long time and I see him finally getting the win in this one with nothing on the line.

WWE Divas Championship: AJ Lee vs. Kaitlyn

I don't think its time for Kaitlyn's redemption just yet. Plus, AJ Lee is the best diva in the WWE right now so I see her keeping the belt.

Intercontinental Championship: Curtis Axel vs. The Miz

I really hope The Miz doesn't win this match. I also don't think The Miz will win. The WWE is clearly pushing Axel and a loss to The Miz would really hurt his momentum.

World Heavyweight Championship: Alberto Del Rio vs. Dolph Ziggler

This could go either way. In the end I think Ziggler gets the win. He has the brighter future in the WWE and I think he is on the verge of becoming a big time face in the WWE.

WWE Championship: John Cena vs. Mark Henry

I just don't see Henry pulling off this victory. Although Henry is one of the better heels in the WWE right now, he is stuck in that area where the WWE uses him to put over other wrestlers in the main event. I see Cena winning this.

Money in the Bank All-Stars Ladder Match: Randy Orton, Rob Van Dam, Christian, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus

This is obviously a very difficult match to predict. Van Dam is making the return and he would be a good bet to win. However, you have so many stars I really could see it being anyone. The only person I would be shocked at winning is Christian. I wouldn't be surprised if Sheamus were too win and maybe turn heel. His character has been getting really stale as of late and he hasn't been in the title picture in a while. In the end I say Bryan wins. He is on the biggest hot streak of all these guys and he is rumored to be facing Cena later this summer for the title.

World Heavyweight Championship Contract Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Wade Barrett, Cody Rhodes, Dean Ambrose, Damien Sandow, Fandango, Jack Swagger, Antonio Cesaro

Again, this is another match that is very difficult match to predict. I think Swagger's time has passed; he got his chance and blew it. Fandango also seems to be on the verge of becoming a full on comedy character like Brodus Clay. Sandow, Cesaro, Rhodes, Barrett, and Amborose are all one big victory away from getting a main event push. Ambrose has the most upside of all these guys and clearly WWE likes him, so I'm going with him. I would love to see an Ambrose and Ziggler feud down the road as well.
