Rumored last-minute travel changes for WWE Superstars ahead of Money in the Bank
Despite some minor botches, WWE Money in the Bank went very smoothly. But it turns out that wasn't the case for some superstars, especially regarding their travel procedures.
Ahead of the recently concluded premium live event, it was reported that a company-wide talent meeting was held with interim CEO and Chairwoman Stephanie McMahon. Despite sources claiming the interaction went well, some recent updates hint otherwise.
Reports from Fightful Select noted a possible minor hiccup was encountered before Friday's SmackDown. The site shared that many RAW talents were supposed to land in Las Vegas but had to change their travel arrangements to make it to SmackDown first.

With a new champion in the form of Bobby Lashley and Liv Morgan, added by Theory as Mr. Money in the Bank, it will be interesting to see what happens next in WWE.
