It wasn’t clear who this Money In the Bank participant is, but the men’s match currently features LA Knight, Shinsuke Nakamura, Santos Escobar, Butch, Ricochet and Damian Priest. The women’s match has 5 of 6 spots filled with Bayley, IYO SKY, Becky Lynch, Zoey Stark and Zelina Vega.
It was also indicated that Knight vs. Santos Escobar will take place on tonight’s show.
Furthermore, @WRKDWrestling noted that tonight’s show will see the tensions rise between SKY and Bayley, while Grayson Waller will get more time to shine as he has a lot of support behind the scenes. Charlotte Flair is scheduled to appear on The Grayson Waller Effect tonight.
