The 17th edition of Money in the Bank will take place on Saturday at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans (ESPN Unlimited, 6 p.m. ET). The event is headlined by men's and women's ladder matches where winners earn a briefcase for a WWE championship challenge. Six men and six women will compete. Title matches include Roman Reigns defending the World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight, and Stephanie Vaquer putting the Women's World title on the line against Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch. Oba Femi and Bronson Reed also face off.
Reigns hasn't lost since November 2025 and is 6-0 this year. This is his first one-on-one match with Knight since Crown Jewel 2023, where Reigns won. Knight has never beaten Reigns and is 0-8 in PLE matches from November 2024 through February 2026, but has won back-to-back at Wrestle Mania 42 and Summer Slam.
Vaquer ended 2025 on a four-match winning streak at PLEs, but lost to Morgan at Wrestle Mania 42. This is Lynch's first PLE match since Clash in Italy in May and her ninth at Money in the Bank, the most all-time in the women's division. Morgan seeks her fourth straight win at Money in the Bank.
The men's ladder match features CM Punk vs. Trick Williams vs. Kevin Owens vs. Bron Breakker vs. Penta vs. Je'Von Evans. Punk won back-to-back Money in the Bank ladder matches at Wrestle Mania 24 and 25. This is his fifth ladder match. No one has performed in more than Kofi Kingston and Kane, who each have seven appearances.
