We are merely a few weeks away from one of the most exciting nights on the WWE calendar - Money in the Bank. Set to take place on July 2, 2022, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Nevada, the show will feature two MITB matches, one each for the men and women. Betting odds have now revealed that a former WWE champion is the current favorite to win the men's bout.
The qualifications for this year's Money in the Bank matches have already started on WWE television. This past week on Monday Night RAW, Seth "Freakin" Rollins defeated AJ Styles in a thrilling contest to become the first, and so far the only, official entrant in this year's Men's MITB match.
As per the most recent Betting Odds on Unibet, Rollins is the current 4/6 favorite to win the contest this year. He previously won the briefcase in 2014 and went on to have a memorable cash-in at WrestleMania 31's main event to become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Drew McIntyre and Riddle are the next favorites. Here are the current top ten favorites for the 2022 men's MITB match -
