In case you didn't know...
Money In The Bank 2019 is in the history books. The show was headlined by the 8-man Money In The Bank Ladder match. The free-for-all saw the wrestlers put their bodies on the line throughout the course of the match, but no one equaled the performance of Finn Balor, who was apparently injured after the punishment he took.
Balor wasn't allowed to compete on tonight's SmackDown Live due to the injuries that stemmed from his outing this Sunday.

While talking about the match, Balor looked as if he was trying to hold back his tears. He stated that WWE didn't allow him to compete on SmackDown Live, but it's part and parcel of the game. He seemed upset at the fact that Brock Lesnar came in at the end of the match and took the briefcase home.

What's next?
Finn Balor's performance was the highlight of the MITB match, but as fate would have it, he didn't win in the end. Hopefully, Balor gets another shot at the top title somewhere down the line.
