Rumor Killer on WWE ‘Re-Doing' Carmella's Money In The Bank Win
In WWE history, there is only one female Superstar who has won the Money in The Bank Ladder match twice. It is none other than the Princess of Staten Island, Carmella. She won the match back in June of 2017 at the Money In The Bank PLE. It was the first ever Women's Money In The Bank Ladder match. She did it with the help of her henchman, James Ellsworth. A week later on SmackDown, a rematch took place and again Carmella won the match.
At the Premium Live Event, James Ellsworth, who was the former SmackDown Women's Champion's henchman at the time, was the one who grabbed the briefcase and handed it over to Carmella. Then, in the rematch, the Staten Island Princess managed to climb up the ladder and grab the briefcase on her own. Of course, at times Ellsworth did help her.

There had been rumors for a long time that the only reason the rematch took place on an episode of SmackDown Live because there was a lot of fan backlash from James Ellsworth being the first person to retrieve the briefcase in the first-ever Women's Money In The Ladder Match.
Recently, James Ellsworth took to Twitter to respond to a fan who reiterated the above-mentioned rumor. Ellsworth shared that the rematch was always the plan. Both Carmella and Ellsworth knew about the rematch even before the PLE match.
'Actually not true. We always knew we were doing the second one before the first one happened; we did a rehearsal the next day for the second one . But you know 'internet,'' James Ellsworth tweeted.

Miley Cyrus's Completely Sheer Gown Wasn't Her Only Statement on NYC Trip
Miley Cyrus brought her 'Walk of Fame' lyrics to life for a day out in New York City yesterday, 'walk[ing] the concrete like it's a stage.' For a full day of press for her ninth studio album Something Beautiful, the Grammy winner began the day signing autographs and taking photos with fans wearing a black sequin halter top with denim shorts, a black belt, fishnet tights, black and tan heeled boots, and shades. She posted photos of the look on Instagram with the caption, 'Your love not just today, but for nearly two decades means so much more to me than the words I can find at the end of a long, fulfilling day. You make my world go round. Thank you for showing up & supporting the release of Something Beautiful with me @roughtradenyc.' (That same day, Cyrus also stopped by the classic record store Rough Trade for a performance and signing.) That evening, she went for a more risqué look when she was spotted arriving at her hotel in a floor-length sheer black dress with a plunging neckline. She accessorized with a gold necklace, dainty hoop earrings, and shades. She switched up her hair, too, opting for a messy up-do. And while stopping to sign autographs, one fan in particular had a noteworthy experience to share. A man named Liam revealed on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Cyrus signed the message 'the best Liam' on his Something Beautiful vinyl. Cyrus's ex-husband is Liam Hemsworth, so some fans saw it as a reference to him. Later, to round out the day's many looks, she maintained the all-black theme and wore a halter black dress with intricate line detailing, black tights, and black pumps for an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. While sitting with Fallon, Cyrus revealed that her favorite song on the new album is 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved,' featuring supermodel Naomi Campbell. 'With Naomi, what I do is treat her the way I'd like to be treated,' she said. 'Call time? 5 P.M. Glam? Lots of glam. Lots of clothes. All fabulous things.' She went on to speak more about the album and why she was drawn to featuring Campbell on the LP. 'This project is such a dream and such a fantasy, and that's what I've always loved about supermodels and the runway and fashion. It's something that's so out of this world.'

'I've Been Right All Along' - Seth Rollins Slams WWE Fans' Biggest Theory
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE Raw superstar Seth Rollins has pushed back against the perception that he is a heel. Instead, he insists in a recent interview with Kay Adams that he remains a good guy, aka a babyface. He has also said that the recent controversial alliances are simply a case of others recognizing the fact that he is right. This comes as Rollins spearheads a new dominant faction on Monday Night Raw alongside Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed. When asked about his current on-screen persona, Rollins stated, "I'm not [a heel], I'm a good guy. I haven't changed a bit." He explained, "It just so happens that people have come to me. People have flocked to me." "I've been right all along!" Seth Rollins has something to say to every WWE fan calling him a villain. 👀 @heykayadams | @WWERollins — Up & Adams (@UpAndAdamsShow) June 5, 2025 Rollins pointed to his claimed WrestleMania 41 success as validation: "Now look, I saw you before WrestleMania. I told you before WrestleMania exactly what was going to happen. I was going to put it to Roman Reigns. I was going to put it to CM Punk. I was going to win the main event of WrestleMania. I did all that. Absolutely nothing changed." Seth Rollins gestures to the crowd during WWE Monday Night RAW at Toyota Center on March 11, 2024 in Houston, Texas.

Regarding his new stablemates, Rollins commented, "Then you see, Bron Breakker, he wants to learn from me. Bronson Reed, we had a little thing last year, but now there's a lot of respect between the two of us, and we're off to the races." When Kay Adams directly asked if he considered himself a heel, Rollins responded, "No, absolutely not. No, not." He then delivered a message to WWE fans who view him as such: "I've been right all along. I know you, you're new to WWE, but for all the WWE fans out there that are watching, I have been right every step of the way, and I have pulled you guys kicking and screaming through the mud." Rollins proclaimed, "...and now we are in the greatest version of WWE of all time, and so I will continue to be that person that leads us into the future, whether you think that I am right or not."
