WWE Money in the Bank card
WWE Championship — AJ Styles (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (Last Man Standing): Nakamura chose the stipulation after beating Styles in a one-on-one match on SmackDown. This will be the fourth time they square off with the title on the line dating all the way back to WrestleMania 34. With this match being a LMS match, Nakamura can legally use his new favorite move the “low blow.”
Raw Women’s Championship — Nia Jax (c) vs. Ronda Rousey: In a big shocker, this match was booked at the NBC upfront presentation on the red carpet. Jax made the challenge and after some hesitation, Rousey accepted.
SmackDown Women’s Championship — Carmella (c) vs. Asuka: Carmella somehow earned a clean win over Charlotte Flair at Backlash, but with the knee injury tossed into the finish and Flair in the MITB match, Paige named Asuka the new challenger.
Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match — Braun Strowman vs. Finn Balor vs. The Miz vs. Rusev vs. Bobby Roode vs. Kevin Owens vs. New Day member vs. Samoa Joe: The men’s MITB match is stacked with Raw & SmackDown superstars. Though the upper hand is currently with The New Day as they have not announced which member will be in the match. Looks like we will not find out until we hear “AYE CHICAGO, don’t you dare be sour, clap for your world famous four time tag team champions, and feel the power, its a New Day yes it is.”
Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match — Ember Moon vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Becky Lynch vs. Natalya vs. Lana vs. Naomi vs. Sasha Banks: It is Banks who earned the last spot in redemption, Lana unexpectedly qualified beating Billie Kay. Also in the match the only two women to hold both Raw & SmackDown Women’s Titles, and the first ever SmackDown Women’s Champion. Everyone in this ladder match has held gold including Ember Moon being an NXT Champion.
Intercontinental Championship — Seth Rollins (c) vs. Elias: Following an incident on Raw in which Elias smacked Rollins with a guitar, tossing him from atop the announce table, Rollins accepted a challenge for his title on Twitter. This week on Raw, Elias wrote a special song for Seth Rollins dissing him every way possible. However, Rollins got the last laugh smashing that custom guitar Elias received from John Mayer.
Roman Reigns vs. Jinder Mahal: After repeated altercations won Raw, this bout was made official on the May 21st edition of Raw. If anything, it’ll be quite interesting to see how the Chicago crowd, expect nothing but “boring,” “boooo’s,” and possibly “CM Punk,” chants.
Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass: After Cass attacked Bryan following their triple threat match on SmackDown, WWE announced on Twitter that the two will square off against one another in Chicago. Bryan was victorious in their first match at Backlash when he made Cass tap out. If Cass wins, expect to see a rubber match with some sort of stipulation.
Bobby Lashley vs. Sami Zayn: After the horrific segment on Raw featuring Lashley’s “sisters,” the match was made on the May 28 edition of Raw where Lashley confronted Zayn to challenge him for Money in the Bank. In last nights segment on Raw, fan’s watched another horrible segment between the two. Hopefully, this is a one and done feud.
SmackDown Tag Team Championship — Bludgeon Brothers (c) vs. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson: In a surprise, Gallows and Anderson beat The Usos clean to win a number one contendership and shot at the tag team titles. On an episode of SmackDown Live, Anderson also shocked everyone by getting a clean singles win over Harper.
Raw Tag Team Championship — The Deleter of Worlds (c) vs The B Team: The B Team, Bo Dallas & Curtis Axel are currently undefeated on Raw. The two won the right to face Woken Matt Hardy & Bray Wyatt by winning the tag team battle royal on Monday Night Raw. This week on Raw, The Deleter of World’s promised to eat and delete The B Team.
