Naomi to lose the Money in the Bank briefcase to returning WWE legend? Exploring the possibility
WWE Money in the Bank 2025 took place on this past Saturday in Los Angeles. The premium live event featured Men's and Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match, which were won by Seth Rollins and Naomi, respectively.
Naomi's history-making win was inspiring for many and certainly well deserved. With that being said, she might not keep the briefcase for long. There is a chance that a returning WWE legend could take the briefcase from The Glow: Nikki Bella.
The Hall of Famer is set to return for the first time since the 2025 Royal Rumble on RAW tonight, but she isn't officially attached to a brand. That means Nikki could easily show up on SmackDown later this week, and if she does, she might make a challenge.
Nikki could challenge Naomi to a match for the briefcase. Bella and the real-life Bloodline member have a long history together. They wrestled many times over the years, teamed up multiple times in the past, and spent time together on the Total Divas program. That history could be how the Hall of Famer lures Ms. Money in the Bank into a big-time match.
From there, Bella could shock the world and defeat Naomi. This would then transfer the ownership of the Money in the Bank briefcase, supposing Naomi accepts the stipulation beforehand, and it could lead to a big-time story in the summer.
As of now, this is just a speculation, and fans have to wait and see what Nikki Bella has to say on tonight's fallout edition of RAW after Money in the Bank.
Nikki Bella could then challenge Tiffany Stratton at WWE SummerSlam
If Nikki Bella wins the Money in the Bank briefcase from Naomi, it would mean big things for the Hall of Famer. This guarantees her a women's title opportunity on any brand against any champion in the company.
Out of all the titles she could go for, Nikki might decide to challenge for the WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam. That prized title is part of the SmackDown brand, and Tiffany Stratton currently holds it.
In many ways, Tiffany is the evolution of the WWE "diva." While she shares many similarities with stars of the past, such as Maryse and Nikki Bella, among others, she is also a once-in-a-lifetime athlete.
It makes a lot of sense for Tiffany and Nikki to go at it knowing this fact. Beyond that, the two also took a picture together after the 2025 Women's Royal Rumble match, which generated a lot of buzz online.
Nikki is likely well aware of this and knows that a match against Tiffany could be money. Why not use the briefcase to challenge Stratton at SummerSlam?
