This past Monday on RAW, the Money In The Bank pay-per-view was still being promoted for May 10th but without a location officially announced. Last year’s Money In The Bank event featured Kofi Kingston defending the WWE Championship against Kevin Owens, and Brock Lesnar winning the men’s Money In The Bank Ladder match. Lesnar went on to cash-in on Seth Rollins at Extreme Rules to win the Universal Championship. The following month at SummerSlam, Lesnar lost the title back to Rollins and in October of 2019, Lesnar defeated Kofi Kingston to become WWE Champion.
