Money in bank 2020 won’t look like this
WWE
WWE’s money-in-the-bank pay-per-view events are usually exciting and rewarding. This year’s show could be a train crash.
Instead of the usual ladder game with half a dozen corpses trying to open a briefcase hanging on the ring in front of a crowded arena, the boys and girls will climb the WWE headquarters this year to get their briefcases. Like in, they will start on the ground floor and run upstairs, where there will probably be a ring (but who knows). In addition, the games of women and men take place in the same time.
So, like I said. A train accident.
But if WrestleMania taught us anything, WWE’s crazy ideas can actually turn out to be great in these strange times. The games of Boneyard and Firefly Fun House, which sounded groaning on paper, were the highlights of WrestleMania night 1 and Night 2 respectively. Who still knows?
Elsewhere, Seth Rollins, who lost to Kevin Owens in ‘Mania, gets a shot in Drew McIntyre’s WWE championship. Wrestling logic. Braun Strowman will defend his World Cup against former friend / cult leader Bray Wyatt. Bayley will defend her SmackDown Women’s Championship, but Becky Lynch is nowhere to be found on the map.
It is not clear whether the entire card takes place in the corporate headquarters or only the money in the bank matches. The standard fights could come from the WWE Performance Center, like the company’s recent WrestleMania, Raw, and SmackDown shows.
