WWE Money In The Bank 2025 Results & Reactions

The story of Truth is fluid because other superstars, like Carlito, were linked to this story, which had real legs and followed a narrative of incoming, younger talent. Whether this is all a work or a work shoot is unclear, but the booking landed in a huge way. Cody and Jey cut a promo following the match, but Truth was not with them.

Men’s MITB Match: Seth Rollins vs. Solo Sikoa vs. LA Knight vs. Andrade vs. Penta vs. El Grande Americano

The men’s ladder match started with a complete blowup of Heyman’s SmackDown strategy for the match as Rollins was targeted immediately, then Solo soon after, as the faces took control early on through teamwork. It did not take long before the ‘every man for themselves’ nature of the match took over, and we got the best sequences of the match.

The work between Penta and everyone was great, but his time with Rollins felt natural, and the crowd reacted to it in a big way by comparison. The only other reactions louder, or as loud, were the ones for LA Knight—a known crowd favorite with the ability to grasp the attention of the live audience. In fact, both Knight and Penta were able to get the best of Seth throughout the match.

There were some spotty moments (that means two things), but one of the more courageous attempts was when Andrade hit Americano with a slingshot outside of the ring onto a ladder positioned at the corner of the ring and leaning on the post. Americano hit the ladder, sprinted up the turnbuckle, and then used a second ladder in the corner to sling himself from one end to the other—the other side of the Fire Ball ladder—and just in time to stop Penta from snatching the briefcase. If you can ignore the image of Penta just standing on the ladder, watching it all happen, out of your mind, then it was an awesome spot.

Seth eventually called for his goons, and Breakker hit Americano with a spear that rivaled the one he hit iShowSpeed with at the Royal Rumble. Breakker and Reed neutralized everyone before setting their sights on Solo, and that is when J.C. Mateo and Jacob Fatu came out to even the odds. The wreckage that followed was chaotic and difficult to gauge in terms of the upper hand, but Fatu would end up standing tall when the dust settled—putting Reed away with some big-time offense.

Fatu gained total control of the match and then acknowledged his love for Solo in front of everyone, helping him into the ring and grabbing the ladder to help position it for Solo. You could see the relief in Solo’s eyes. After all, the two have butted heads after Solo’s unilateral decision to add J.C.

Solo finally started to climb the ladder after getting it ‘just right,’ and as he was a step away from being within arms reach of the briefcase, he suddenly realized he was unable to take that final step. The spot was a great combination of comedy and drama-filled payoffs as Fatu held Solo back, literally and figuratively, from grabbing the MITB briefcase.

Fatu made the turn official by stomping out Solo before declaring, “I hate you,” to Solo on his knees. The turn of events allowed Seth Rollins to climb the ladder and snatch the briefcase, making him this year’s Money in the Bank winner—his second career MITB win.

Women’s MITB Match: Rhea Ripley vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Naomi vs. Roxanne Perez vs. Giulia vs. Stephanie Vaquer

The women’s Money in the Bank ladder match was first on the program

Rhea emerged from the ladder wreckage to get her hands on Roxanne Perez, and then a face-to-face with Giulia exploded the crowd. Rhea eventually made her way through the heels and was left to face off with Stephanie Vaquer, and the crowd reacted strongly to the pairing. It was difficult to say what story was being told between the two faces, and it was likely forecasting a potential future program rather than any sort of immediate booking plans, but when Vaquer slammed Rhea’s head onto a ladder propped up as a makeshift scaffold, it was clear who was getting over in this match.

Bliss showed out, and she played spoiler in many of the spots, but they did not sell a narrative with either Giulia or Perez that solidified any major bookings. In fact, the entire match felt directionless from a story standpoint. The match got over several superstars in several spots but nothing by way of furthering programs.

The amount of crazy ladder spots and Canadian destroyers was enough to garner a “this is awesome” chant from the crowd (much deserved), but in the end, it was Naomi who took advantage of the situation where every competitor was down following brutal spots, leaving Naomi to proceed up the ladder (with ‘caution’) to snatch the briefcase.

Dominik Mysterio vs. Octagon Jr.

The impromptu match was set up following the conclusion of the six-man tag Worlds Collide opener—won by the team of Octagon Jr. after he pinned Dorado—when Dom grabbed the mic to ridicule Octagon Jr. for his professed love and admiration for Dom’s deadbeat dad. The bilingual promo got heated as the two eventually brawled it out.

Dom threw down the challenge at the match and was added to the four-match fight card for later in the evening. The match was good, and Dom played his role to perfection. Octagon was never going to get the win, but the showcase was not just for us fans. It is likely that the WWE brass wanted a closer look at one of AAA’s most over faces.

Lyra Valkyria (c) VS Becky Lynch—Women’s IC Title

We have a new women’s champion, as Lynch successfully defeated the inaugural women’s IC champion. The story that started with Lynch coming back at Mania to tag with Lyra to the next night on RAW, turning on the then IC champ. The two were expected to build the rivalry based on their storied history with one another, but it was not easy to land, considering Becky had been out so long while Lyra was never given much in the form of IC defense storylines.

Becky and Lyra put on a terrific show, but Lynch could not just ‘shake hands’ and show respect instead she made Lyra ‘give her flowers’ by forcing her to raise her hand. Lyra eventually got too annoyed with Lynch’s boastful attitude and took her down a peg or two. The rivalry will likely continue.
