This year saw World Wrestling Entertainment staging up more premium live events outside the Unites States. Of course, London became one of the premier destinations when WWE recently hold their de facto fifth biggest show of the year, Money In The Bank.

It wasn't a moneyball shot. In fact, WWE's latest pay-per-view event was oftentimes a blunder than a spectacle as of late.

I used to argue with one of my friends in the music scene (who happens to be a fellow avid wrestling fan) in the past; saying Money In The Bank will be a non-brand exclusive pay-per-view event by the coming year.

Hey Cris, turns out you're right. Well, with the advent of having PPV events intended for both RAW and SmackDown divisions since post-WrestleMania, Money In The Bank certainly deserves a slot to  even be part of the major events in WWE's calendar. One briefcase for either two of the prestigious championships in each division (men and women) seems to be a right decision to convene.

A few months ago, me and one of my elder buddies in the music scene (who's also a wrestling fan) that goes by the name of Cris Ramos debated that Money in the Bank should've been a non-exclusive pay-per-view (PPV) event. But of course, it's not gonna happen at all as SmackDown live, home to the WWE Champion, is the house of their alternate-to-the-first biggest individual prize. That said, the blue brand is the home of Money in the Bank. 

Screwjob?!

I know  I shouldn't make a comment about this match since I have yet to see the entire thing called Money in the Bank. As far as my commonly-known observers are concerned (from Smark Henry to the Sporting Guy), this MITB has been so far the worse gig for the SmackDown Live brand.

What? Another replica of the Women's MITB Ladder Match? And that will take place just 10 days from Sunday the 18th? But why?

It was a blockbuster Sunday night at the United States as the world of sports and entertainment had put up a massive heavyweight treats (and it actually came in threes) in time for Father's Day. People worldwide had been waiting for a new episode of Game Of Thrones, while at the Bay Area and Ohio, thousands witnessed the culminating game 7 of an epic finale showdown between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers.

And here at Las Vegas, professional wrestling gambled all in for the World Wrestling Entertainment's annual special event known as the Money In The Bank.

One blockbuster event match, a WrestleMania marquee main event, and an instant money-drawer match. Perhaps, at the new era, it's about time the World Wrestling Entertainment has totally went all-in on investing for an evening known as Money in the Bank. 

An Extreme Return

With WWE Extreme Rules came to a close, it was still the guy who holds the title. Yes, Roman Reigns retained the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Talk about a late “cash in” here. It's been a week and a half since the World Wrestling Entertainment conducted their edition of the pay-per-view called Money in the Bank—an evening which offers an instant potential title shot called Money in the Bank ladder match.

I can only say nothing but few words for the last WWE pay-per-view event titled “Money in the Bank” ­— it’s really worth the “money!”

A lot of blockbuster-hyped match lived up to its expectations, with two ladder matches containing respective prizes at stake: one is for the Money In The Bank contract (which guarantees him for a contender spot for the big one), and the other is for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
