Put it up. With less than two weeks to go before WWE Money in the Bank, it is time for WWE to start hammering down the rest of the card. There are not a ton of wrestlers free due to the ladder matches, but there are enough stories set up to make the show work. Now we have another match set up after several weeks of it being teased before being made official.
This week on Monday Night Raw, a United States Title match was officially added to the Money in the Bank card, with Bobby Lashley earning a title shot against Theory. Lashley and Theory have attacked each other in recent weeks, with Theory saying that Lashley could have a title shot if he won a three man gauntlet match. Lashley went on to defeat Chad Gable, Otis and Theory himself, setting up the title match.
Opinion: I don’t think it was a surprise to see this match added to the show but at least they finally got it on the card. It helps that this is a match that could go either way, as Lashley winning wouldn’t be a surprise, but it would also be nice to see Theory get a big win over one of the bigger stars on Monday Night Raw. The build hasn’t been great, but there is something to be said about Theory’s selfie deal.
What do you expect from the match? Who leaves with the title? Let us know in the comments below.
