Money in the bank 2020 definitely looks like it will be a unique event
The Money in the bank match originally was a Wrestlemania tradition before it got big
enough to have its own show
The concept for the Money in the bank match is quite simple.
If you grab that briefcase, you have 1 full calendar year to cash in and get a title match
anywhere and anytime you want
The Money in the bank cash-ins are the most exciting and highly anticipated moments every
single year
Especially when it’s a surprise cash-in, you hear the superstars’ music go on and
they’re running to the ring with a referee behind them
It’s always a crazy exciting moment that the crowd just really comes alive for
There’s been tons of great cash-ins over the year such as Dolph Ziggler’s 2013 cash-in
which was no doubt one of the most memorable cash-ins of all time
Well WWE is now brainstorming ideas on how they can change the concept of the match considering
there’s no live crowd
So the traditional ladder match is out the window for at least this year.
WWE was teasing that this year’s Money In the bank match would be something that we’ve
never seen before and they weren’t lying at all
It was revealed that the WWE superstars will have to “climb the corporate ladder”,
so what does this mean?
What will the match look like?
Let’s get into that right now
Well the most obvious thing to note is that this will technically be a cinematic match
WWE had two popular cinematic matches at Wrestlemania that left the fans wanting more
But superstars like AJ styles did note that WWE has to be careful not to overuse these
cinematic matches
But it’s now been confirmed that our cinematic matches for Money in the bank will be the
Money in the bank ladder matches themselves
The Men’s and Women’s money in the bank matches will take place at WWE headquarters
in Stamford, Connecticut
The concept of the match will be like this, The Money in the bank briefcase will be on
the roof of the building with competitors starting in the main lobby.
After the match officially starts, it’ll be a race from the main lobby all the way
up to the roof to get the contract
Superstars will fight their way through WWE’s headquarters and work their way up each and
every floor until they get to the roof
We’ve seen a few segments over the years take place in the main headquarters.
For example when Brock Lesnar invaded Triple H’s office and destroyed the room, but we’ve
never seen a match this huge take place from the headquarters
Maybe we’ll see cool Easter eggs and other things from the past while the superstars
work their way up the floors, so that’ll be interesting to see.
We might even see some cameos as well.
But the intense part of the match will start when the Superstars finally make it to the
roof
That’s when things will really pick up and someone will have to step up and climb that
corporate ladder
An interesting thing to note is that WWE has already started production on these matches
People nearby the headquarters noticed that WWE was filming something on the rooftop,
but didn’t know what they were filming at the time
There were multiple camera men and other competitors on the roof
So that match was recently filmed in mid April and it’s still chilly in Connecticut, so
WWE was taking breaks in-between filming so that Superstars can warm up before resuming
the match
You have to remember that these superstars are in their wrestling attire, so they definitely
don’t have the warmest clothes on
So being on that cold rooftop in your wrestling attire could get a little hectic, but it was
reported that the superstars received numerous breaks before finishing the closing moments
of the matches on the rooftop
Like we noted before, we do know that it’ll be a cinematic match
So WWE has already shown three different types of cinematic matches so far.
We’ve seen the Boneyard match, which is more of a movie scene kind of fight.
You have the scenery, the fighting, and it just feels like a scene ripped from a movie
Then you have something like the Firefly Funhouse match which really wasn’t like a movie scene
fight, but was more like a physiological match, But those sort of matches won’t be as common
going forward because no superstar really fits into that theme of matches besides Bray
Wyatt
Then we had the last type of cinematic match that WWE aired and that was Johnny Gargano
vs tommaso ciampa
In this match we saw Gargano and Ciampa fight inside the ring, take the fight outside, and
then come back inside, so it wasn’t as complicated and complex as the Boneyard Match or the Firefly
Funhouse, but it was unique in its own way
So everyone wants to know what kind of cinematic match will the Money in the bank match be
similar too
I think the safe guess is that the money in the bank matches will be similar to Gargano
vs Ciampa or Edge vs Randy Orton
WWE doesn’t have a whole big budget scenery set up for the match, but they did have multiple
camera men preset for the taping
So it will most definitely be similar to matches like Edge vs Randy Orton, where they’re
fighting in all of the rooms with multiple camera men
But I think the rooftop scene may be where the quality picks up and it’ll really feel
like a cinematic match once we’re on the roof
WWE already has a full sized ring on the roof as well as the structure over the ring that
is holding the money in the bank briefcase
It’s also being reported that WWE has filmed majority of the Money in the bank matches
in advanced
So for the moment, those two money in the bank ladder matches are the only cinematic
matches on the card, but we’ll have to see if that changes
Either way it is a really unique idea by WWE and it’s most definitely better than an
empty crowd ladder match in the performance center
This really gives it a even more “big match” sort of feel.
So For today’s bonus story, we have a big update regarding WWE’s television tapings
so let’s take a look at that story....
So what are your thoughts on WWE deciding to make the Money in the bank match into a
ladder match?
