Predicting the other 4 qualifiers at Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match

Enter captio
Braun Strowman, Miz, Rusev, and Finn Balor qualified for the ladder match this week

This year the Money in the Bank pay-per-view will be live from the Allstate Arena in Chicago on June 17. As the name suggests, one of the marquee matches of the show will be an eight-man ladder match for the Money in the Bank briefcase, inside which lies a contract guaranteeing the winner a World Championship match anytime and anywhere.

As of this writing, four superstars have already qualified for the ladder match, and the remaining competitors will be known in coming weeks. Last year, Baron Corbin won the ladder match. However, given the way he has been booked so far, it is unlikely that he would even qualify.

So, who else will earn the opportunity to make it to the ladder match? Read on to find out.


#4 Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins could repeat the unthinkable this year

Making it first on our list is the "Architect" Seth Rollins. He has been on a steamroll after winning the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania. Moreover, he achieved an enormous feat of successfully defending the championship on four different continents in three weeks.

Brock Lesnar has been booked as the most dominating World Champion in WWE. It wouldn't knock sense if he loses the title clean. So, whosoever wins the contract should cash it on the Universal Championship.

The first name that comes to anyone's mind having that thought is Seth "Freakin" Rollins. Remember the main event of WrestleMania 31? What about a repeat of it at this year's SummerSlam?

The underutilized Zack Ryder could be the ideal opponent to put the Kingslayer through. Many expected him to show up the week earlier at Raw for the "Open Challenge." Why not do it a week later?

#3 Andrade "Cien" Almas

Andrade "Cien" Almas is Mexico's hottest property in WWE right now. He re-invented himself with Zelina Vega after an awful first two years in NXT. So, if the pair comes to SmackDown, they could do wonders.

We know that he will be debuting next week on SmackDown. And, what better way than putting him on a Money in the Bank qualifying match. Tye Dillinger and Shelton Benjamin cut promos this week on Smackdown indicating their intentions. So, why don't they book a triple threat match between these Superstars?

Rather than going the traditional ways of squashing jobbers, it would be more convenient if he sets the purpose clear from his debut.

#2 Bobby Lashley

The Dominator would be a reckoning force if he qualifies at the ladder match

So, with various Superstars being left out of a qualifying match what would Kurt Angle do? People like Jinder Mahal and Elias would come instantly complaining after it. Well, he could announce a Battle Royale for the same. Speaking of Battle Royale, there would be no bigger favorite to win it other than Bobby Lashley.

To make the booking appropriate, the Authors of Pain wouldn't be a part of the Battle Royale. You might detest this but they are tag team competitors. Moreover, there isn't anyone worthy enough to eliminate them, and their break up is needless at this moment.

The Dominator would squash away minnows like Mojo Rawley and Heath Slater before finally winning it. And that paves way for the four Raw competitors- Braun Strowman, Finn Balor, Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley.

#1 Samoa Joe

The final qualifier to make it through to the ladder match is none other than Samoa Joe. The Samoan Submission Machine has been booked very poorly on the main roster. Surely, the injury has played a major part in it, but the creative board is also to share the blame.

It would be a crime if he doesn't qualify for the ladder match. He has already issued an open threat to AJ Styles that he is coming after the title. Winning the contract would only make it more convincing. Moreover, if you compare him with other SmackDown entrants, he is the only legitimate contender in winning the briefcase.

We predict that Samoa Joe would follow the footsteps of Bobby Lashley and qualify. There is no other way of making a monster look stronger than winning a Battle Royale!
