And then there were two more. We are coming up on Money in the Bank and that means it’s time to climb ladders. This year’s edition is going to be even more unique as the whole match is taking place at WWE Headquarters, meaning the briefcases will be suspended above a ring on the roof of the building. That could make things more complicated, but now we know a little more about the show.
As has been the case for a few years now, there will be one men’s and one women’s ladder match. This year’s editions are going to be a bit smaller than usual, with only six entrants per match. That gives the match a little more run to work and that’s a good thing given how messy these things can get. A lot of the lineups are ready in advance and now we know who will be in one of them.
During this week’s SmackDown, Carmella defeated Mandy Rose to become the sixth and final entrant in the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match. The win means Carmella joins Lacey Evans, Asuka, Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax and Dana Brooke in the match. The women’s match will take place at the same time as the men’s match, with the briefcase hanging on the roof of WWE Headquarters. Carmella won the ladder match in 2017 and went on to win the SmackDown Women’s Title.
This is where we could be heading again. Check out how Carmella did in this situation before:
Opinion: Carmella makes as much sense as anyone else as you can usually tell who is going to have the real chance to win the briefcase. The match is going to be a unique one and it is often a good idea to have someone with previous success in the match. Baszler would seem to be the likely winner, though Money in the Bank has had a few curves thrown in there before.
