Nearly here is the WWE Money in the Bank premium live event, where one male and one female talent are guaranteed a future title match. Who will walk out of the evening with the briefcases? The possibilities are fascinating.
Seth Rollins and Finn Balor will battle for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at the Money in the Bank show, a rematch in the making since Rollins injured Balor during the inaugural Universal Championship match in 2016, cutting his title reign short.
Another big match will see Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa bringing the Bloodline feud to its climax when they face The Usos. This group had been united for most of Reigns’ reign as champion, but it started to fracture this year after Sami Zayn’s departure, followed by Jimmy and Jey breaking away.
The match is being promoted as a “Civil War” that will see family members collide, which will also determine where this years long storyline goes next. Which side leaves London victoriously?
After two rough matches with Brock Lesnar, Cody Rhodes will face Dominik Mysterio. It’s an unusual match pairing, but one that could bridge the gap to Rhodes and Lesnar squaring off again at SummerSlam.
Filling the rest of the card, Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler will defend the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship against Raquel Rodriguez and Liv Morgan, and Gunther will face Matt Riddle for the Intercontinental Championship. Both add to a loaded match slate that should deliver a fun afternoon of WWE programming.
The action will transpire from London, in front of what should be a raucous crowd. That means it will start much earlier than many fans in North America are accustomed to for a WWE premium live event: mid-afternoon in the east and lunchtime in the west.
Here’s everything you need to know to watch this weekend.
