Money in the Bank Contract Ladder Match

Winning the Money in the Bank Ladder Match can change a Superstar’s career, instantly launching him into the WWE World Heavyweight Championship picture. The likes of Edge, Daniel Bryan and Seth Rollins have graduated from future star to WWE World Heavyweight Champion, thanks to the contract.
On June 14 at Columbus, Ohio’s Nationwide Arena, seven Superstars — Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, Neville, Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Sheamus and Kane — have been announced for the battle to secure WWE’s equivalent of a winning lottery ticket, earning a future date anytime, anywhere with the champion.
With three former Money in the Bank winners and four former World Champions in the field, a new face could take a massive step toward his first WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Ziggler won the briefcase in 2012 and cashed in the night after WrestleMania 29, but a concussion abruptly cut his long-awaited World Heavyweight Title reign short. Two years after his dream reign turned into a nightmare, Ziggler can finally right that wrong.
Kingston always wows the WWE Universe and his competition with his in-match acrobatics and improvisation with a ladder. But after five appearances, the eight-year WWE veteran has never competed one-on-one for a World Championship.
WWE’s newest Superstar, Neville knows plenty about Ladder Matches, considering he captured the NXT Championship in one. Despite a lack of experience, The Man That Gravity Forgot aims to stun his much more seasoned competition.
With three Money in the Bank appearances under his belt, Orton knows the dangerous bout as well as anyone. He followed his lone win in 2013 by joining The Authority and unifying the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships.
Kane won the Ladder Match in 2010, before becoming the first Superstar in history to cash in his coveted contract on the same night that he captured it - taking home the World Heavyweight Title.
Reigns had to watch “Mr. Money in the Bank” Rollins leave WrestleMania 31 with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, stealing his storybook moment. Money in the Bank 2015 represents his first step in rewriting history.
A three-time WWE Champion, King of the Ring and Royal Rumble Match winner, Sheamus hopes to add another accolade to his resume with a Money in the Bank victory — while also proving WWE is the “land of the giants.”
Watch the always chaotic, always exciting matchup when WWE Money in the Bank airs live on WWE Network, on Sunday, June 14, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. P.T

 

Divas Champion Nikki Bella vs. Paige 

In light of the controversial conclusion of last week’s Divas Championship Match, Nikki Bella will defend her title against Paige this Sunday at Money in the Bank. The Diva of Tomorrow claims that Nikki and her sister Brie are holding the entire Divas division back. Whether she can dethrone the established order, however, remains to be seen.
The Bellas went into their bag of tricks on the June 1 edition of Monday Night Raw, when Nikki successfully defended her title against Paige utilizing Twin Magic against the Anti-Diva. In response, the disgruntled challenger voiced her distain for the twin siblings’ actions on SmackDown, accusing them of hogging the spotlight for themselves since coming to WWE – in contrast to the current #givedivasachance initiative.
Paige is no stranger to The Bellas’ antics. At WWE Elimination Chamber, she (and Naomi) fell short against Nikki in a Divas Championship Triple Threat Match. Before that, she and AJ Lee bested The Bellas at WrestleMania 31.
Despite being able to hold onto the butterfly-emblazoned championship, Nikki can’t afford to take Paige lightly. In her relatively short time in WWE, The  former two-time Divas Champion has proven  she is more than capable of conquering any opposition thrown her way. She has promised to change the Divas division, and she has the potential to do just that. That said, Nikki won’t make it easy on her.
The Bella Twins have described themselves as the Diva standard bearers of WWE and for good reason. Multiple-time Slammy Award winners, Divas Title holders and stars of E!’s award-nominated “Total Divas,” it’s arguable that Nikki and Brie have made their mark in WWE history unlike any women before them. Since winning her second Divas Title at Survivor Series 2014, Nikki has taken on all challengers (by hook or crook). Like her or love her, there is no arguing that the star of “Total Divas” has scratched, clawed and fought to earn her place on the mountain top.

Will Paige overcome Nikki at WWE Money in the Bank? Find out live this Sunday at 8 p.m./5 p.m. PT on the award-winning WWE Network.

 

Intercontinental Champion Ryback vs. Big Show

Two colossal forces collide this Sunday at WWE Money in the Bank as new Intercontinental Champion Ryback squares off against Big Show.
Less than 24 hours after his brutal title victory inside the career-altering Elimination Chamber, Ryback was set to go to battle with The Miz on the June 1 edition of Monday Night Raw. However, before the bell could ring, The World’s Largest Athlete stormed back into WWE and paced stoically toward the squared circle.
Standing silently opposed to both champion and challenger, Big Show loaded his fist for a potential KO Punch in the face of Ryback, then suddenly switched course and connected with the brutal blow to the A-Lister. The giant then made it clear that he will be the one to dethrone The Big Guy for the Intercontinental Title.

The showdown for the coveted championship between the two Superstars promises to be an intense encounter. Prior to his sabbatical, Big Show won The Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 31, once again establishing himself as one of the most dominant Superstars on the roster. However, during the giant’s absence, The Human Wrecking Ball has taken on all challengers, culminating with his victory inside the steel confines of the Elimination Chamber to claim his first singles championship in WWE.
Will Big Show deliver a fatal blow to The Big Guy’s first title reign? Find out at WWE Money in the Bank, live this Sunday at 8 p.m ET/5 p.m PT on WWE Network.

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose (Ladder Match)

Seth Rollins will try to repossess his WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Dean Ambrose when he faces Ambrose in a dangerous championship Ladder Match at WWE Money in the Bank 2015. The first Superstar on June 14 to scale a ladder and grab WWE’s top prize from high above the ring will be declared the victor.
Though Ambrose and much of the WWE Universe may already consider The Lunatic Fringe the rightful WWE World Heavyweight Champion following the events of WWE Elimination Chamber, Rollins remains the titleholder on record. Ambrose pinned Rollins in a thrilling but controversial match that saw two WWE referees issue contradictory rulings. Ultimately, the official decision was ruled a disqualification win for Ambrose, meaning Rollins retained the title.

Unsatisfied with the outcome, however, the WWE Universe’s most beloved outlaw absconded with the championship.
Ambrose’s needling of The Authority’s poster boy is reminiscent of last year, when The Lunatic Fringe hijacked Rollins’ Money in the Bank briefcase. In that instance, Ambrose stole the coveted briefcase because Rollins and The Authority metaphorically stole the Money in the Bank Ladder Match victory from The Lunatic Fringe in the first place, with Kane assisting Rollins and preventing Ambrose from winning.
Since The Shield’s breakup, Ambrose and Rollins have gone at it hammer and tongs (and ladders) in a variety of dangerous matches, with each conflict raising the stakes and intensity of the one before it. What will happen at Money in the Bank when Ambrose again sets his sights on the Superstar who betrayed him?
Will The Lunatic Fringe finally make Rollins pay the ultimate price, the WWE World Heavyweight Title? Or will Rollins, so obsessed with regaining his title, rise to the challenge of the unpredictable Ambrose?

The rapping Superstar has been on the hunt for WWE gold through the first half of 2015, vying for the Intercontinental Championship in an 8-Superstar Ladder Match at WrestleMania and inside the Elimination Chamber at the end of May. He’s come up short thus far, but he’ll look to build momentum against the hard-hitting Barrett in Columbus, Ohio.

WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day vs. The Prime Time Players

At WWE Money in the Bank, The New Day will go head-to-head with The Prime Time Players for the WWE Tag Team Championship live on WWE Network June 14.
The showdown will take place in the wake of the first Elimination Chamber Match for the coveted championship. Of the five explosive teams who challenged the reigning titleholders, Titus O'Neil & Darren Young were the last tandem eliminated. This is quite a feat considering that the entire New Day trio – Kofi Kingston, Big E & Xavier Woods – were granted permission to compete in the contest and use the numbers game to their advantage.
Eager to finish the job, the “millions of dollars” duo triumphed in a Triple Threat Match on SmackDown, overcoming the high-flying Lucha Dragons and the dangerous Ascension to become No. 1 contenders.
While the tandem of O’Neil & Young looks impressive, no one should underestimate the power of positivity. Like them or hate them – and quite honestly, most people hate them – the combination of Kingston, Big E & Woods have proven to be quite cunning since seizing the WWE Tag Team Titles. Not only does each possess his own unique skills, but they have adapted the idea of “Freebird Rules” in their matches, meaning their challengers never know who in the team they will be facing.
Find out who will emerge from WWE Money in the Bank with the WWE Tag Team Championship in their grasp, live Sunday, June 14, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on WWE Network.

John Cena vs. Kevin Owens

The unthinkable happened when NXT Champion Kevin Owens defeated John Cena at WWE Elimination Chamber. At Money in the Bank 2015, The Champ will get the opportunity to redeem himself when he faces Owens in a highly-anticipated rematch.
Though Owens has only been in WWE since December, he has made the most of the past six months. He debuted in impressive fashion at NXT TakeOver: R Evolution, only to bulldoze his longtime friend Sami Zayn. Two months to the day after, he destroyed Zayn to capture the NXT Championship, then pummeled Zayn into the canvas in their rematch at TakeOver: Unstoppable.
In the midst of all that, Owens made his way up to the main roster and stepped up to the biggest dog in the yard, flooring Cena with his devastating Pop-up Powerbomb on several occasions.
For his brash display of aggression, The Authority rewarded the NXT Champion with a one-on-one bout against Cena at Elimination Chamber. And though Owens had never stepped in the ring with a competitor like John Cena, the NXT Champion showed no nervousness in the ring, answering everything Cena threw at him. Kevin Owens shocked the world when he drove The Champ into the canvas with the Pop-up Powerbomb to pick up the biggest win of his 15-year career.
See photos from their first encounter
As cameras broadcast the shocked reactions of the Cenation live to the world, Owens stood in the ring and followed up on his career-making victory with a bold statement: “It’s time for John Cena to go.”
Can Owens prove that his victory at Elimination Chamber was no fluke, or will Cena make the NXT Champion eat his words? Find out at Money in the Bank, live Sunday, June 14, on the award-winning WWE Network!
