What’s next?
This year’s Money In The Bank PPV will take place at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri on June 18th and will be brand-exclusive to SmackDown Live. The winner of the MITB match will get a chance to challenge the WWE champion at a time and place of the former’s choice.
Author’s take
The WWE championship scene has seen a heavy logjam right now, with Randy Orton having to face Bray Wyatt in a House Of Horrors match at Payback on April 30th and then defend his WWE title against Jinder Mahal, if the Viper survives the Eater of Worlds.
In my opinion, the WWE’s plan all along seems to be an Orton-Corbin feud and considering that the oddsmakers seem to be bang on the buck listing The Lone Wolf as the favourite to reign supreme at Money In The Bank. My money’s on Baron Corbin, what about you?
