WWE Money in the Bank: 4 surprises that need to happen at the PPV
Hartford, Connecticut, will be the center of one of WWE’s biggest pay-per-views of the year, as fans will get to watch one of their favorite match types at the event.
Money in the Bank has many regular and championship matches scheduled but is different from other events thanks to the Money in the Bank ladder match. The winner gets a briefcase which contains a contract that guarantees the winner a match for a world championship at any time within the next year.
With the stakes extremely high for the event, we are usually treated with many surprises throughout the night, which makes the event even more memorable.
Last year’s biggest surprise saw Alexa Bliss win the women’s version of the MITB ladder match and go on to cash in her briefcase on the same night against Raw Women’s Champion, Nia Jax, to win the title.
With that said, we will take a look at 4 surprises that need to happen at this year’s event to make it even more memorable.
#4 Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles ends in a no contest
Seth Rollins has found a brand new challenger for the Universal Championship. AJ Styles was drafted to Raw from SmackDown Live and has since been in pursuit of Rollins’ title.
AJ Styles surprised everyone by rising to the top of Raw so soon after winning a tournament to crown the number one contender for the title at Money in the Bank.
While we have seen the two men go from friends to bitter enemies in the past couple of weeks, we have been expecting one of them to turn heel in the battle of the babyfaces. At this point, it seems as though Styles will be the one who turns full heel either before or during the matchup.
Keeping in mind that this will be Styles’ first major match on Raw, we can expect that WWE would not want to end the match cleanly so both superstars are protected and Rollins does not lose his title.
Will a superstar like Drew McIntyre interfere to start a new rivalry between himself and Styles, or will one of the superstars deliver a low blow to end the match? We will have to wait and find out.
