History repeating itself? - 5 Things WWE fans must prepare for at Money in the Bank 2024

Money in the Bank always provides fans with memorable moments, from title swaps to returns and cash-ins. When WWE invades Toronto this year, this year's event will probably follow those guidelines.

As the first Money in the Bank completely under Triple H's control, this year's event is more important than ever. Bookers must carefully pick the winners of each ladder match while ensuring that big angles continue at the show.

With SummerSlam on the horizon, the WWE Universe will have to strap in for another important Money in the Bank show. Fans should prepared for the next five things to go down in Toronto.


#5. A new Intercontinental Champion could emerge after Money in the Bank

With the way WWE has booked Bron Breakker on RAW, you'd think he's already the Intercontinental Champion. The former NXT Champion was introduced on SmackDown with a few squash matches.

His dominance continued after his selection by RAW in the 2024 WWE Draft. The level of opponents, however, has dramatically increased. Breakker has faced Ludwig Kaiser, Ricochet, and other RAW stars since April.

Breakker rampaged after he was omitted from King of the Ring. It would be disappointing for Sami Zayn to lose in Toronto a few months after ending Gunther's historic reign. Bron's massive push, however, may lead to a new Intercontinental Champ at Money in the Bank.


#4. Liv Morgan's continued influence on Judgment Day business

Liv Morgan isn't booked for Money in the Bank but will defend the Women's World title against Zelina Vega on next week's RAW. That leaves her open to causing havoc in Toronto.

Damian Priest is the only group member with a match booked for the event as he defends his title against Seth Rollins. A rematch for the World Tag Team Titles could be added to the card.

Whatever happens with the Judgment Day at Money in the Bank, expect Morgan to be involved. She's been all over the group's business and was even in the clubhouse on the latest RAW.


#3. A big win for a new-look faction

After last week's SmackDown, General Manager Nick Aldis booked a six-man tag team match pitting the Bloodline against Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton. All three stars have battled the Bloodline for months.

Rhodes defeated Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship. He was re-inserted into the feud following an attack from Solo Sikoa after a successful defense at Clash at the Castle.

Jacob Fatu's shocking debut made the group more formidable than ever. To make the Bloodline seem unstoppable on the way to SummerSlam, Team Rhodes will likely be defeated. Owens and Orton have battled the group since WrestleMania with varying levels of success.

The two long-time veterans continually put other stars over. However, Solo pinning Cody at Money in the Bank would give him grounds for a potential match at SummerSlam.


#2. Could a big name return in Toronto?

One thing the New Era has done well is handle debuts and returns. Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu had impactful debuts to help the Bloodline. Uncle Howdy returned to WWE and debuted the Wyatt Sicks on RAW.

Several stars, including Rhea Ripley, Shotzi, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss, are either inactive or injured. Any of those women could pop up in some fashion at Money in the Bank, likely to set up a title match.

With the event in Toronto, it wouldn't be a big shock if Trish Stratus or another legendary Canadian star appeared.


#1. The potential for same-night cash-ins

Liv Morgan, Bayley, Alexa Bliss, Kane, and Dean Ambrose all cashed in their briefcases hours after winning them. It's more likely that the trend of female winners cashing in on the same night continues.

It still doesn't mean the men's Money in the Bank winner will wait too long. Damian Priest already has several challengers like Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, and Gunther, who could easily defeat him without outside interference.

If McIntyre qualifies and wins Money in the Bank, he won't be waiting very long to cash in his case. The same could be said for Jey Uso, who has already faced and fallen to Priest several times.
