Today’s WWE Money in the Bank event starts at 3PM ET as it takes place from the O2 Arena in the UK. There are two women’s matches on the card.
The Undisputed Women’s Tag Team Champions Ronda Rousey will be defending against Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez. Morgan and Rodriguez never lost the titles due to Morgan’s injury and now they are ready to reclaim them.
Predictions –
COLBY: I’m glad this PLE will have two women’s matches after all because it looked like there would only be the ladder match for several weeks. Nevertheless, I’m actually excited, in a sense, for this because these women have decent chemistry with each other.
Morgan feuded with both Rousey and Baszler last year, while Rodriguez has proved to have some really entertaining TV matches against Rousey. It’s also so great to see Morgan back already after it seemed like she would be out longer. However, I don’t see the titles changing again and that’s perfectly fine.
WINNERS: Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler
GARY: Given that Raquel is likely being primed to face off against Rhea Ripley, I don’t see her winning this match with Morgan. Baszler/Rousey win and ideally move on to an extended program with The KC’s after the taster we got with them earlier. The KC’s vs the champs in a gimmick match of some kind? Yes please!
WINNERS: Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler
NICK: I think this will be the last we see Raquel and Liv together. There’s also been rumors of Ronda and Shayna going to NXT and with Jakara and Lash calling them out last week I can see that continuity happening.
WINNERS: Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler
We also have the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Six women will battle it out to become Ms. Money in the Bank. The winner grabbing a briefcase where they can almost guarantee a cash in to become a future champion. The participants are: Becky Lynch, Trish Stratus, Zoey Stark, Bayley, IYO SKY, and Zelina Vega.
Predictions –
COLBY: What a field! It’s certainly not a group of women I would have predicted a couple of months ago, but I like it. Trish in her first ladder match could go one of two ways — she does some crazy stuff, or she leaves Stark to do her dirty work for her.
Another tag team includes Bayley and IYO SKY, but it feels inevitable that we’ll really see some cracks here. While Becky and Zelina each have their own mission as the resident babyfaces, I don’t see them winning here. I’m torn between Trish and IYO and I feel like I’m going to stick to IYO.
WINNER: IYO SKY
GARY: I feel like this match could go a number of ways but I think the briefcase is going to be used to further an existing storyline but will that be Stratus vs Lynch or the demise of Damage CTRL? I’m going to with latter and say that IYO SKY gets the win and Bayley pressures her time and time again to cash in while acting like the briefcase is their shared item to continue dividing the pair.
WINNER: IYO SKY
NICK: This could go so many ways. It could go the route to involve Becky/Zoey/Trish or it can be used for Bayley/IYO. These are the biggest stories heading in with Becky saying MITB is the one thing she has yet to win. I think that with Becky standing tall at the summit means she isn’t winning so I will go with my peers and say IYO.
WINNER: IYO SKY
