Despite there being 7 slots shown on the graphics during the qualifiers for the match, on RAW there was no remaining spot to be filled according to the on screen graphic shown before the main event 6 man tag match. To add to that, there was no mention from the commentators that there was another man to be added to the match.
Is this an oversight by WWE or do you think that they've changed things again?
I think they are waiting for either Orton or Wyatt to be cleared to actually wrestle other wise their either gonna drop the 7th man and hope we forget about it or just thrown some random person into the match.

I actually thought Bray Wyatt's fat ass would show up on the 6 man tag main event and beat everyone up and close the show with his return and then he would eventually enter the MITB match as the 7th guy. However, seems like WWE closed the 7th slot for some reason.
He just kinda disappeared after the HIAC PPV?? I'd be for him to have one last monster run where he retires in a match against Wyatt/Balor or some guy who could really use the rub.
They made no mention of it last night and every time they referenced the ladder match they did not say 1 more superstar to qualify or anything like that.
So, either they've changed plans (shocker) or they're making you forget about the potential 7th man only to shock us later.
To be honest I'd like it if they want back to the original lineup of 6.
It would also make sense to keep it at 6 if they're gonna keep bringing up that Jericho "invented" the MITB Ladder match because all Jericho said when he went to Eric Bischoff in 2005 was that his idea was "6 guys and a Ladder", Bischoff came up with the rest, so really it was Eric Bischoff that "invented" the MITB match. But like I said, if they're giving Jericho the credit for coming up with it, they should keep it at 6.
There's still two weeks left. I'm guessin they'll do a battle royal for the last spot. I'm also guessing that Kalisto is gonna take that spot rather than a surprise return. We'll see.
On the RAW pre-show they kept talking about who will be the 7th man - and you know that show is based off of WWE writers telling them EXACTLY what to say... so there will be another addition.
Rather it be Bray than Orton if that is what they're waiting for. Orton doesn't need to be involved in the title picture again.
