WWE Money in the Bank

  • WWE did not have a traditional media junket for Money in the Bank. They are still planning a post show.

  • The show was planned out as a four match show as of this week, as always, that can change. The Dominik/Octagon match was kept relatively quiet

  • We had someone speculate that EL GRANDE AMERICANO would win and cash in for the AAA Title if Gable loses. While a humorous concept, that particular angle wasn't planned as of this week.

  • For those asking about Wrestlevotes' report that Triple H has never been a fan of the Money in the Bank concept, that certainly tracks with things we have heard since the report. Someone pointed out Triple H has never even been in a qualifying match, much less had much to do with the concept, and he never got cashed in on. At this point, it's too much of a money maker to give up.

  • There has been discussion of "ladder sponsors" but we haven't heard if it's happening.

  • There is pyro on top of some of the stage ladders.

  • The plan today was for the Women's MITB to open, IC Title match second, Women's IC Title third, men's MITB fourth, and the tag match main event, per Cory Hays of Bodyslam.net

  • It was heavily implied to us that there is a surprise at the end of MITB.

WORLDS COLLIDE NOTES

  • Chavo Guerrero is backstage at today's show.

  • Dominik Mysterio and Liv Morgan were planned for a segment as of last weekend.

  • Rey Mysterio is supposed to be at today's Worlds Collide.

  • PWInsider says WWE claimed JBL is not scheduled to appear.

  • Please follow Fightful Espanol across all platforms.

  • WWE booked Mr Iguana for the MITB appearance after seeing his reaction

  • If you couldn't tell that WWE wants nothing to do with Alberto Del Rio, he was edited out of their video packages today.

  • Undertaker was in LA today, including at Worlds Collide.

  • Corey Graves gained a lot of praise for his commentary. His brother Sam Adonis actually works for AAA on a freelance basis.

INDIES

  • Shotzi Blackheart is rumored as the surprise GCW TOS entrant.

  • There is speculation that Drew Parker is at this weekend's GCW shows, though he hasn't been announced.

AEW

  • Adam Cole was at Summer Games Fest. The word backstage was that he told people he was fine after the Kyle Fletcher powerbomb spot recently.

  • Kenny Omega appeared in a Street Fighter trailer for new characters. His business manager helped put it together, and it wasn't through AEW.

  • MyBookie has Ethan Page, Stephanie Vaquer & Lola, Wagner Jr, Pyscho Clown & Pagao, as well as El Hijo Del Vikingo are all favorites for today's Worlds Collide show. Those are also our picks.

  • Seth Rollins, Naomi, Becky Lynch, Cody Rhodes & Jey Uso are the Money in the Bank betting favorites. We have Lyra Valkyria favored to win her match, but agree with the others.

  • There are no lock picks, but talent expected Naomi to win Money in the Bank.

POSSIBLE MAJOR SPOILER

Talent involved around the Women's Money in the Bank match think they know the winner.

Those that we've spoken to have indicated that they believe Naomi will end up winning the Money in the Bank briefcase. Sources claim that talent has been under that impression for a couple of weeks

We can not appropriately convey enough that we are not reporting it as a guarantee. It's what the talent believe. We ask you to please be responsible and utilize media literacy when discussing this.

This surprise was everything and something I never could’ve predicted I’m so happy 😭

Scott Ritter

So was it a work? Did they change their minds due to the backlash? What's going on.

Melissa C

I wouldn’t be surprised if TKO just didn’t expect the backlash and realized they messed up.
