Seth Rollins returns, accepts World Heavyweight title match for WWE Money in the Bank

Posted on by Bryan Rose

Seth Rollins is back.

After being since WrestleMania, Rollins returned to Raw on Monday, opening the show.  He and Damian Priest ended up agreeing to a World Heavyweight title match at Money in the Bank, which takes place in Toronto on July 6.

Rollins said he had returned for one reason, and that is to win the championship that he had made. He said he would enter the Money in the Bank ladder match to earn a title match. Priest came out as the two exchanged words. Priest said he would grant Rollins a title match at Money in the Bank. Rollins thought that Priest’s offer was a ruse for the Judgment Day to attack him, but Priest said that the Judgment Day knew nothing about his offer. Rollins accepted, setting up the match for next month.

Here is the updated lineup for Money in the Bank:

  • World Heavyweight Championship: Damian Priest defends against Seth Rollins
  • Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match
  • Women’s Money in the Bank ladder match

WWE Money in the Bank 2024 announced for Toronto

Posted on by Ian Carey

Money in the Bank is headed to Toronto. 

WWE announced on Thursday that this year’s event will take place July 6 at Scotiabank Arena. 

Additionally, the July 5 episode of SmackDown will also air from the venue, as will NXT Heatwave on Sunday, July 7. 

“Toronto is an amazing city with a passion for sports entertainment,” Paul “Triple H” Levesque said in a press release. “We’re excited to bring Money In The Bank to Canada for the first time, as we continue to lock down the most globally focused schedule in company history.”

Triple H wrote on X:

This summer, for the first time ever, Money in the Bank heads to Toronto and headlines a massive weekend at @ScotiabankArena.

7/5 #SmackDown

7/6 #MITB 

7/7 #NXTHeatwave 

Thrilled to bring one of the most exciting events of the year to Canada… this is going to be epic.

The last time WWE ran a show from Scotiabank Arena was the August 18, 2023 edition of SmackDown, which is estimated to have drawn over 14,000 fans. The show featured Edge’s final WWE match before he signed with AEW. 

WWE also brought its holiday tour to Toronto on December 29, 2023. Triple H says the show broke gate records for a non-televised event in the market. 

AEW also ran a series of shows from Scotiabank Arena in 2023. Forbidden Door 2 ran from the venue on June 25. Tony Khan would later say the gate from the show was “about” $1.2 million.
