As noted earlier, LA Knight and Damian Priest have been the front-runners to win the Men’s Money In the Bank briefcase, with Knight likely being the top candidate of the two, but Logan Paul has also emerged as the potential winner. It was noted that there have been internal pitches to give Paul the win as some feel that Paul holding the briefcase will bring publicity and put more eyes on WWE.
In an update, a new report from insider Better Wrestling Experience notes that WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H does not want Paul to win the Money In the Bank briefcase. While the finishes are being discussed, it seems like Paul will not win if Triple H is against the idea.
Furthermore, it was noted that there have been discussions on potentially pushing Paul to feud with Knight coming out of Money In the Bank.
Regarding the Women’s Money In the Bank Ladder Match, IYO SKY remains the front-runner to win but there is also one more Superstar who is being looked at as the potential winner, but the source is unable to reveal the name at this time. It remains to be seen if this is a Superstar already announced for the match, or if this is someone new that will be introduced as the 7th competitor, as WWE did with Paul in the men’s match.
On a related note, it was indicated that there is a lot of backstage excitement going into this weekend as “everyone is hyped” for Money In the Bank. There’s a feeling that Money In the Bank will be bigger than Backlash and Night of Champions. It was reported earlier this week how WWE officials held a meeting where SummerSlam and Survivor Series plans were discussed, and word now is that “things are looking great so far” as we go into SummerSlam, where apparently WWE creative is “about to turn up.”
