WWE Money In The Bank 2025: Date, Time And How To Watch
Technically, Money in the Bank is not a 'Big 4' premium live event, but those who know understand how big of a role the MITB briefcase plays in the WWE story over the course of the year. This year's version shouldn't be much different. Here's the info you need to watch the event. Money in the Bank 2025 takes place Saturday, July 6, live from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. This marks the first WWE Premium Live Event hosted at the new venue. The show is set to begin at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT, with a kickoff show scheduled for one hour prior. For U.K. fans, that's a midnight start time. In the U.S., fans will need an active Peacock Premium subscription to stream the show live. In the UK, fans can watch on Netflix. This year's card is already loaded with high-profile matches. The men's and women's Money in the Bank ladder matches feature a blend of main event talent and fast-rising newcomers. For the men, names like Seth Rollins, LA Knight, and Solo Sikoa are already established stars with an imprint in the WWE fabric while Penta and Andrade have an opportunity to take serious steps on the WWE journey. El Grande Americano is the real sleeper as it is clear WWE believes in Chad Gable and they may want to deliver something unexpected with his character. Could he win the MITB but be faced with a dilemma about revealing his true identity? Did El Grande Americano win the MITB or was it Gable? The women's match is equally stacked, with Naomi, Rhea Ripley, Alexa Bliss, Roxanne Perez and standout newcomers Stephanie Vacquer an Giulia all vying for the contract. Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso will team up to face John Cena and Logan Paul in a high-profile tag team match that bridges generational lines. It's a wild blend of legacy, mainstream crossover, and storyline tension with championship implications just under the surface–especially if the winner of the men's MITB tries to cash in on Cena or Uso. Even in a post-WrestleMania world, Money in the Bank has stayed relevant because of its volatility. The contract hanging above the ring is a gimmick that works and helps to shape the careers of stars at different points in their careers. It gave Rollins arguably his defining moment. It elevated Damian Priest last year, though it's seemingly been fumbled since. Perhaps it'll serve as the launch pad for Saturday night's winners.
