WWE Money in the Bank has an interesting show lined up for fans

#2 Shouldn’t happen at Money in the Bank 2021: Kofi Kingston loses in a squash match

Kofi Kingston and Bobby Lashley's title match looks promising

At the Money in the Bank pay-per-view, Kofi Kingston will challenge Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship. Both superstars have been involved in an entertaining rivalry on RAW, and Kingston finally has a chance to become the world champion again.

Although it is unlikely that the WWE Championship will change hands, the creative team must ensure that the New Day member is not subjected to another squash match with gold on the line.

Kingston has done well in posing a serious threat to Lashley's title reign. It ultimately forced the WWE Champion to give up all his celebrations to help him concentrate better on the challenge that lies ahead. The build-up to this match at Money in the Bank has been good, and it would be disappointing to see Kofi Kingston lose in underwhelming fashion.

#2 Should happen at Money in the Bank 2021: End of the feud between Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley

This was one of the first title matches confirmed for Money in the Bank 2021. It was pretty surprising to see Charlotte Flair get another shot at the RAW Women's Championship. She has been targeting Rhea Ripley for a long time now, and their feud has undoubtedly run its course. We hope that this feud will finally end at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view.

Given how close Flair has come to winning the RAW Women's Championship in the last few months, she could walk away from the upcoming pay-per-view with another record-breaking title victory. It can't be denied that Ripley needs that title more at the moment. She will benefit from a good title match at Money in the Bank and elevate her position on the RAW roster.

But more than anything, Rhea Ripley needs to end the current chapter with Charlotte Flair and draw the curtain on this extended rivalry.
