What time does Money in the Bank start? WWE Money in the Bank card and predictions
If you like WWE, you're in for a huge Saturday. This weekend, not only will the promotion put on WWE Worlds Collide during the afternoon, the stars are coming back at night to figure out who will claim the golden tickets at Money in the Bank. When is Money in the Bank? WWE's Money in the bank will be held Saturday, June 10. What time does Money in the Bank start? Money in the Bank starts at 7 p.m. How to watch Money in the Bank In the United States, WWE Money in the Bank will air live on Peacock. It will also be available on traditional pay per view for $44.99. Where is Money in the Bank? WWE's Money in the Bank will be held at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. Does Money in the Bank have a kickoff show? A kickoff show will begin at 6 p.m. Eastern, one hour before the show. It will likely begin after WWE Worlds Collide. It will air on WWE's Youtube page and on Peacock. WWE Money in the Bank match card Men's Money in the Bank match: Solo Sikoa vs. LA Knight vs. Seth Rollins vs. Penta vs. Andrade vs. El Grande Americano Women's Money in the Bank match: Giulia vs. Stephanie Vaquer vs. Naomi vs. Roxanne Perez vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Rhea Ripley Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch, Women's Intercontinental championship match Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso vs. John Cena and Logan Paul Money in the Bank predictions There are four matches on the card, which is one less than normal, but that could be thanks to the length of the ladder matches. Here's how we see it playing out. Men's Money in the Bank match I hope this match opens the show because if you have the tag team match after this, you have both champions in the ring. It makes the entire show more interesting because they're both exposed. So we open with the men's match, and I could make a case for everyone to win. I think I'm going outside the box for my pick, but I'm taking my guy Solo Sikoa. He's been struggling and this could add a layer to his story, which is my favorite thing on Smackdown right now. I love you Solo! You are my Money in the Bank winner! Women's Money in the Bank match Another match that features a bunch of stars that could make a case to win. The one difference between the men and the women's match is that no women world champions are on the show, so they'd need to figure out a way to have a winner cash in on the show. I think the best winner here would be Naomi. She earned it by taking a whooping at WrestleMania. She has been a great bad girl since turning this year, I think giving her the briefcase will springboard her into the next level. Would also like to see Alexa Bliss win, but official prediction is Naomi. Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch I can't believe I'm saying this, but Valkyria is holding her own with Lynch both in the ring and on the microphone. Valkyria really showed what she can do in this feud, and it's not hurting Lynch at all. She's still great. This has been a fun feud and this will be a fun match. I'm going with Lyra Valkyria winning too. It will only get her further up there as a top tier player. She's a star. I think Lynch winning would be better for the story, but Valkyria winning sets her up to keep shooting up the card. Prediction: Valkyria wins. Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso vs. John Cena and Logan Paul This match makes no sense on so many different levels. I'm happy that Jey Uso and Logan Paul are in a main event, but the other two are dragging them down a bit. The Cena bad guy just hasn't been very good. I'm not sure why, I was excited when it happened, but it's almost like a rehash of the Roman Reigns story with a guy who is nowhere near as hot or entertaining right now as the Tribal Chief! Cena is an all-time great, but this isn't working. His matches have been fine, and this should be a great match because it's four guys who are a lot of fun to watch. I think Uso is going to get "hurt" in this match which will soften him up for his rematch with Gunther on Monday. So I'm siding with John Cena and Logan Paul to win. And I'd love to see a cash in, but it depends on the match order. Prediction: Logan Paul and John Cena win.
