Changing its paradigm compared to previous years, WWE bet on new talents from its company to win the prestigious Money in the Bank briefcase in the event of the same name.
This Saturday night, Liv Morgan and Theory became the new winners of Money in the Bank, which allows them to opt for an official match for any title at any time.
Liv Morgan and the day she will never forget
The first winner of the night was Liv Morgan, who defeated Shotzi, Raquel Rodríguez, Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss, Lacey Evans, and Asuka to grab the briefcase to the ovation of the entire venue in Las Vegas.
However, even though this opportunity could be cashed in within a year, the young athlete wasted no time and cashed it in after the match between Ronda Rousey and Natalya, where the former had struggled to retain her SmackDown belt. With the support of the audience, Liv Morgan achieved her first championship in WWE in a grand fashion.
Theory and the division among fans
But the recipient of divided support from the fans was Theory, whose character is based on being "spoiled" by Vince McMahon himself.
Curiously, the 24-year-old wrestler had lost his United States belt earlier that night against Bobby Lashley, but it was the former boss (his daughter Stephanie McMahon is in charge after an internal investigation) who announced that he would join the star-studded ladder match that included Riddle, Seth Rollins, Omos, Sami Zayn, Drew McIntyre, Madcapp Moss, and Sheamus.
Theory has even been called the successor to John Cena, and it is expected that both of them will have a confrontation at a WWE event. Will the great push being prepared for him be successful?
