This week’s Raw falls on Memorial Day, and by the looks of it, WWE has a loaded show on tap for its fans. A few hours ago, Raw GM Adam Pearce announced a couple of triple-threat Money in the Bank ladder match qualifiers. As per the WWE official, Seth Rollins will battle Finn Balor and Sami Zayn.

Also added to the card is Penta vs. Chad Gable vs. Dragon Lee, and one of them will advance to MITB, slated for June 7 in Los Angeles. Other advertised matches for the evening in Tampa include a world tag team titles match, where The New Day will defend their gold against The War Raiders and American Made. Last but not least, Akira Tozawa will try to weather the storm known as Rusev.

With Saturday Night’s Main Event in the rearview mirror, WWE is expected to build towards Money in the Bank with full steam ahead. One of the most anticipated things about Raw this Monday will be the impending return of Liv Morgan.

Fightful is reporting that the Judgment Day member could be back on WWE television as soon as tonight. She’d been off the past few weeks to fulfill a filming commitment in Japan. Morgan’s comeback is bound to cause some troubles within her faction.

Last week, Finn Balor introduced Roxanne Perez to his stablemates. The Prodigy was seen making a play for Dominik Mysterio, the current on-screen boyfriend of Morgan. The Prodigy gifted Mysterio a box of chicken tenders, which the IC Champion accepted in a heartbeat.

Triple H confirms massive tag team match for Money in the Bank

After John Cena crashed the world title match between Jey Uso and Logan Paul at Saturday Night’s Main Event, he was caught off guard by a returning Cody Rhodes. The American Nightmare went right after the Undisputed WWE Champion and delivered a Cross Rhodes to Cena. Paul attempted a cheap shot on the ex-AEW EVP, but he ducked, and The Maverick ate a spear from Uso.

After that, Rhodes threw a challenge for Cena and Paul to wrestle him and Uso in a tag team match at Money in the Bank. It has finally been made official by none other than WWE CCO Paul “Triple H” Levesque.

Triple H took to X and unveiled the official MITB poster featuring The Cenation Leader. While doing so, Levesque confirmed that Rhodes would indeed be getting what he asked for. While there have been rumors of Travis Scott’s involvement, there’s no update on that front.

Money in the Bank will mark another instance where Cena won’t defend his title. This past weekend, he ousted R-Truth in a non-title match. The general consensus around The Franchise Player’s ongoing retirement tour isn’t favorable. A number of fans are lamenting the forced heel turn that’s not coming across as authentic. Some of them firmly believe that The Rock‘s abrupt exit from the story sabotaged everything.

How do this year’s Money in the Bank ladder matches look like?

Even though WWE has made John Cena – Logan Paul vs. Cody Rhodes – Jey Uso official for Money in the Bank, the actual intrigue of the PLE vests in its traditional ladder matches. This year is no different. On the men’s side, Solo Sikoa and LA Knight have made it through.

This week on SmackDown, Andrade, Carmelo Hayes and Jacob Fatu will duke it out for that coveted spot. It appears the fans will get to know two more names to qualify for the high-stakes matchup on Raw as mentioned above.

On the women’s side of things, the field is almost set. Out of the four names that qualified, they include Rhea Ripley, Giulia, Roxanne Perez, and Alexa Bliss. A triple-threat match featuring Nia Jax, Jade Cargill, and Naomi this Friday will fetch another woman who’d be competing for that career-altering opportunity at the Intuit Dome on June 7.
