WWE Money In The Bank 2025: 10 Things You Must Know
TULSA, OKLAHOMA - JUNE 02: Bron Breakker, Seth Rollins, Bronson Reed and Paul Heyman stand tall ... More during Monday Night RAW at BOK Center on June 2, 2025 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. (Photo by Rich Freeda/WWE via Getty Images) WWE is taking over southern California this weekend with Smackdown, Worlds Collide and Money in the Bank emanating from the Los Angeles area. Fans have endured some roster transition over the past week, so there is some pressure for the promotion to produce an entertaining and memorable premium live event on Saturday. Here's the 10 things you must know about Money in the Bank 2025. WWE Money in the Bank 2025 is scheduled for Saturday, June 7, 2025. The event will take place at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Yes, tickets are still available for purchase through various outlets. Ticketmaster's cheapest available ticket early on Thursday morning was $238 while the most expensive was $9,320. The main event figures to be the high-profile tag team match featuring Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso vs John Cena and Logan Paul. While this match is heavy on star power, there isn't much attached to it besides the chances that the men's MITB winner will cash in on a depleted Cena at the end of the match. If there is no surprise entrant into the MITB match–like Karrion Kross–one surprise that we could see is Becky Lynch aligning herself with her real-life husband Seth Rollins–helping him win MITB. I have written this before, but I believe we're headed for a mixed tag-team match at Summerslam that sees Seth and Becky take on CM Punk and AJ Lee. Quite honestly, it's going to be a hard sell for anyone in the men's MITB to win besides Rollins. There could be a case made for Penta, but as it is, having Rollins win his second briefcase would make the most sense. Rollins' 2014 cash-in–which is arguably the greatest in WWE history–would be tough for the future Hall-of-Famer to top, but with Paul Heyman and others involved, there's plenty of routes to take to make it stand on its own. If I'm being totally honest, no one deserves the opportunity more than Naomi. She has been amazing on her heel run. The way she's been lurking in the shadows over the past week is a perfect setup for a MITB run. Color me Team Naomi for this one.
