5 ways Carmella could cash in her Money In The Bank briefcase

She lok
She looks great with the briefcase, but when will she cash it in?

Carmella made history by not only becoming the first-ever Women's Money In The Bank briefcase holder but also winning back the briefcase once again after two weeks.

It's been pretty entertaining to watch Carmella skip around with her briefcase and the "Moonwalking Trash Talking Miss Money In The Bank" won't let anyone forget she can cash in her contract at any time she chooses.

But how will she cash in her contract? After all, knowing Carmella it's going to be a special circumstance and probably well choreographed. So let's take a look at five possible ways she could pull it off and walk away with her first Women's Champion.


New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

#1 Survivor Series shake-up

Let's see
Let's see if she can surprise us

Survivor Series is going to be a great night which promises a Raw vs SmackDown Live dynamic throughout the pay-per-view. There might not be a Women's Title on the line, but both champions will still be competing in Houston.

What if the match between Alexa Bliss and Natalya grows to a crescendo just as it has the capability of doing? "Little Miss Bliss" and "The Queen Of Harts" could wear each other out when finally one of them gives out and the other triumphs.

It doesn't matter who wins in this scenario because Carmella could run down and cash in her briefcase. But she could really turn things upside down by pinning Alexa Bliss instead.

Let's see where it could lead if Carmella jumps over to Raw as champion.

#2 Carmella makes an honest challenge

She
She might make an honest challenge

You never know if Carmella might surprise us all and simply announce that she is cashing in her Money In The Bank briefcase and a match could then be scheduled. This is a tactic usually utilized by babyfaces with the briefcase but she's surprised us before.

But in true Carmella fashion, this match could be wrought with controversy as well because she could put a no-DQ stipulation on the match and neglect to tell her opponent until after The Princess Of Staten Island blasts her with a chair shot to the back.

James Ellsworth could always get involved as well. But it would be a shame for Carmella not to win the previously stated reasons.

All it would take is a pinfall or submission and Carmella could be riding high as a champion who's a top heel.

#3 Ellsworth, the Special Referee

You
James Ellsworth is living proof that you never know what could happen in WWE

If Carmella came out during a crucial moment when the champion was worn down a bit to cash in her briefcase the arena would cheer furiously. Even if fans don't want Carmella to successfully win the title just the idea of witnessing a Money In The Bank cash-in will be enough to excite the fans in attendance.

But to swerve us all, Carmella could pull James Ellsworth behind her on a leash while he's wearing a referee shirt. She could announce how her pet Ellsworth is the special referee for the match and the shenanigans could start from there.

Ellsworth could fake something being in his eye if the champion rolls Carmella up for a pin but miraculously improve once Carmella gets a small package. "The Chinless Wonder" could throw himself to the mat and begin a fast count to crown Carmella as new SmackDown Women's Champion.

It might be a fitting beginning to a championship reign that is sure to be full of underhanded tactics.

#4 Carmella literally loses her contract

No
Nobody's perfect and that goes for James Ellsworth too

This one might be interesting because it could validate something that happened on The Fashion Files when they did that brilliant parody of Reservoir Dogs. Fandango and Tyler Breeze went through Carmella's briefcase and only found dirty underwear... it was really gross, but one thing they didn't see was her Money In The Bank contract.

If Carmella waits until the perfect moment to seize the opportunity for a cash-in on a weakened champion and wins her title it would be a time worth celebrating, for the "Princess Of Staten Island". But the joyous demeanour from Carmella could quickly disappear when they look inside her briefcase to discover that there is no contract inside.

It turns out James Ellsworth lost it. Maybe he traded it for a loose meat sandwich or something. It would certainly be an interesting way to go about it if this was discovered and Carmella's newly won title was never recorded and the title goes back to the champion because of Ellsworth's negligence.

#5 An assist from Paige

She
She's supposed to be coming to the Blue Brand, after all

It's been a while since we last saw Paige in a WWE ring and it's about time. But what if when Paige comes back she makes it sure that she is placed on the heel side of the roster. While its possible she'll return as a big babyface as most Superstars returning from injury usually do, there's always a chance she could be a despised heel.

If Carmella comes out to cash in her Money In The Bank contract and receives a distraction from a returning Paige to roll up the champion and steal a victory this might give everyone involved a much needed shot in the arm. After all, everybody loves surprises.

The weeks to come could feature Paige and Carmella acting like best friends with James Ellsworth tagging along like the Chyna to their HBK and Triple H. It might be pretty fun if WWE allowed these two ladies to really cut loose on WWE television.

After all, they're already letting Carmella drag James Ellsworth around by a leash so it might be interesting to see how far they could take it if given the chance.
