Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match:
Butch vs. Damian Priest vs. LA Knight vs. Logan Paul vs. Ricochet vs. Santos Escobar vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
Grady Hooker (78% accurate in 2023):
Logan Paul throws a spanner into my predictions because I was going to give it to Damian Priest or LA Knight, but now I have 3 contenders to choose from. Damian Priest, with the help of Judgement Day, has really been getting himself some momentum and I am going to put all of my eggs in his basket.
Winner: Damian Priest
AJ Murtagh (76% accurate in 2023):
I’ve been going back and forth between LA Knight and Logan Paul this past week. I’m thinking about momentum and who wants it the most and I have to go with Knight. He has that momentum and the fans behind him.
Winner: LA Knight
David Dunn (76% accurate in 2023):
It’s everyone for themselves in Money in the Bank… except it’s not because Butch is going to have a sold-out O2 Arena on his side.
Winner: Butch
Steve McCleary (73% accurate in 2023):
I was banking on Knight to take this one, but the addition of Logan Paul really does shake it up. He’s a wildcard you just can’t ignore.
Winner: Logan Paul
Sammy G (54% accurate in 2023):
There are at least four guys that I could plausibly see winning this match but in the end I’m going with my gut instinct, Damian Priest. With The Judgment Day in prominent matches on the card, it’s an opportunity to reinforce their dominance over WWE!
Winner: Damian Priest
Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match:
Bayley vs. Becky Lynch vs. Iyo Sky vs. Trish Stratus vs. Zelina Vega vs. Zoey Stark
Grady:
Becky Lynch, Trish Stratus, and Zoey Stark are all going to take each other out of this match and that leads us to have a three way for the briefcase. From that three, I think Iyo Sky has the most in the tank and the most unique offence to overwhelm the other two and come away with the win.
Winner: Iyo Sky
AJ:
Maybe this is a left field pick but Trish Stratus has been on a mission since turning on Becky Lynch. I think Stratus wants one more run as a champion and this is her ticket to get it done; especially with Zoey Stark by her side.
Winner: Trish Stratus
David:
It’s everyone for themselves in Money in the Bank… except it’s not because Trish Stratus is going to have the dangerous Zoey Stark on her side.
Winner: Trish Stratus
Steve:
Every time Lynch has been in one of these matches, she’s had the victory snatched from her jaws. Now she’s stronger, faster, and more motivated. This time, she feasts.
Winner: Becky Lynch
Sammy:
Trish Stratus has set the women’s division alight since her return, and is on awesome form with her rekindled mean streak and team with Zoey Stark. I think Trish is in a position to do something she’s never done, and win a MITB Ladder Match.
Winner: Trish Stratus
