The Money in the Bank Ladder Match stands out as one of the most exhilarating contests in WWE. This match offers elite male and female wrestlers an opportunity to secure a contract guaranteeing them a title shot whenever they desire. A clear favorite has emerged early on for both the men’s and women’s matches.
In the previous year, Damian Priest emerged victorious by outshining seven other male competitors to clinch the Money in the Bank briefcase. Despite this achievement, Damian, a member of The Judgment Day, has not utilized his title shot yet and has a dwindling four months to do so. Conversely, IYO SKY triumphed over five other women to seize the coveted briefcase. She promptly cashed in her opportunity at SummerSlam after Bianca Belair’s triumph over Asuka.
The upcoming Money in the Bank Premium Live Event is set to emanate from the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Scheduled for July 6, this edition will commemorate the 15th anniversary of this premium live event.

In terms of predictions, the frontrunners to win the respective briefcases this year, according to Oddschecker, are Sami Zayn and Tiffany Stratton. Close contenders for the men’s briefcase include LA Knight, Dominik Mysterio, and Grayson Waller. In the women’s division, Chelsea Green, Jade Cargill, and Naomi are considered strong options. It’s important to note that these early favorites may evolve as the event approaches.
Speculation arises regarding Damian Priest’s hesitance to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase on Seth Rollins in recent times. With only four months left before losing his title shot privilege, Damian has made several unsuccessful attempts to challenge Rollins. In an interview with West Sport, the Undisputed Tag Team Champion shed light on his reservations, citing Rollins’ lack of medical clearance as the primary hindrance. Priest mentioned that his options include waiting for Rollins to be cleared or shifting to SmackDown to cash in on Roman Reigns.
