Page 4 - Money in the Bank 2020: 5 interesting details that you missed – Top Superstar teases face turn, huge botch spoils the main event

#2 The logistical errors spotted during Money in the Bank main event

The crash pads were visible from one of the shots from the top angle

Owing to the Covid-19 crisis, WWE has been producing shows without a live audience. While the challenging times have had its fair share of implications on the overall business, it has also allowed the WWE Creatives to go wild with their imagination as the PPVs continue to feature cinematic-style matches. The same thing happened at Money in the Bank, except there was a huge detail that WWE editors forgot to address in the main event.

This unique edition of the Money in the Bank PPV saw the briefcases suspended atop the WWE Headquarters. Since it was a pre-taped match, there were a lot of camera angles involved in order to narrate a compelling story throughout the main event. Although the footage was edited, one aerial shot somehow managed to escape the eye of the editors. Interestingly, this was the only spot in the match, which showed that the crash pads were placed all around the terrace.

At the Money in the Bank PPV, these crash pads were the ones used during the spot that witnessed RAW Superstars Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black being flung over the roof by Baron Corbin. Given the fact that the entire match was pre-taped and edited, this one revealing spot that should have been avoided. But it appeared on the screen for a few seconds before WWE production changed the angle and avoided showing the crashpads during the rest of the show.
