The first contest on the card was the men's MITB match. Uso made his way through the crowd as the first competitor who was introduced.
McIntyre was the last man to enter the ring. Surprisingly, everyone waited for the bell to get going instead of fighting as soon as they had the chance. We also didn't see anyone roll right out of the ring, which almost always happens in these bouts.
The Scottish Warrior was the first one to use a ladder as a weapon and took out a few opponents before trying to climb up for the briefcase.
This was a standard MITB match. The stronger wrestlers provided a base for the high-flyers to hit risky spots, and everyone took their fair share of damage from the ladders. We didn't get anything groundbreaking, but this has enough well-performed spots to keep fans entertained from bell to bell.
One thing that stuck out was how nobody felt more dominant than anyone else. Everybody had their moment to shine and had their fingers on the briefcase at one point. Andrade and Hayes had some of the most impressive moments, but everybody looked good.
When it looked like Uso was going to claim the briefcase and the win, McIntyre threw a ladder into him like a spear to knock him down. The former WWE champion climbed up and claimed victory for himself to end a solid MITB match.
McIntyre may have won, but Andrade and Hayes were the standouts here. They created several highlight reel moments together and separately.
Result: McIntyre won Money in the Bank

The IC title was on the line in the second match when Zayn faced Breakker, a man who has been a constant thorn in his side for weeks.
As expected, the Canadian fans gave Zayn a warm welcome and he looked genuinely touched as he soaked it in.
Breakker showed off his power by easily tossing Zayn after their first lockup. He also showed off some speed with a quick go-behind and a second throw. He made it seem like he was toying with Zayn, so the champion slapped him to show he wasn't intimidated.
Having to follow a six-person Ladder match would be difficult for anybody, but they did a good job making sure they weren't lost in the shuffle. Zayn is one of the best underdog performers in the business, so he made Breakker look even more dangerous than usual by selling every move as if he was close to death.
THIS IS AWE-SOME ???????? ????????????<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MITB?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MITB</a> <a href="https://t.co/JND61hbcy1">pic.twitter.com/JND61hbcy1</a>
The longer this went on, the more it proved that Breakker is not a one-trick pony. He's a versatile performer who is going to have a long career if he stays healthy. Unfortunately for him, this was not his night.
The Underdog From the Underground hit a Helluva Kick and pinned his challenger to retain the IC title in a performance that made both men look like stars.
Result: Zayn defeated Breakker
Grade: B+

John Cena came out and in quick and unceremonious fashion announced he was retiring from WWE. He then spoke fondly about his Canadian fans who have been with him his whole career. He said the 2025 Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber and WrestleMania will be his last. He ended the segment and said he would answer any questions at the press conference.

Rollins had the entire arena singing along to his entrance music as he made his way out for the world title match against Priest.
As soon as the bell rang, they were trading strikes and trying to go for a quick win. The Archer of Infamy avoided a Pedigree and scored the first two-count with a suplex.
Both men kept their eyes on the stage expecting McIntyre to show up and cash in his newly won briefcase.
Even though both competitors performed well, there was something off about this match. It may have been a lack of buildup in this feud, and it may have been the predictability of how it all played out. Whatever it was, it kept this bout from reaching its full potential.
After Rollins hit a falcon arrow, the ref declared a two-count for what was clearly a pin. The crowd began booing loudly until McIntyre showed up and handed his briefcase to the ref to cash in and join the match.
The bell rang and they all started fighting. Now that it was a triple threat, nobody was disqualified when CM Punk showed up and attacked McIntyre with a steel chair. He obliterated The Scottish Warrior and then grabbed the world title to knock him out with one last shot.
CM PUNK is back!!!<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MITB?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#MITB</a> <a href="https://t.co/Tmak4iCqOk">pic.twitter.com/Tmak4iCqOk</a>
He sat on the announce table and watched as Priest hit South of Heaven for the win. The shenanigans toward the end added some drama to the situation and helped make this bout a lot more exciting.
Priest retained, Rollins is protected by not taking the pin, and the feud between Punk and McIntyre may now include Rollins after he expressed anger toward Punk for getting involved.
Result: Priest defeated Rollins and McIntyre

Naomi was out first for the women's Money in the Bank match. As soon as the match started, everyone cleared out of the ring to grab a ladder except for Chelsea. She stole Sky's ladder and was too afraid to climb it, so she tried to use it to knock the briefcase down instead.
This match quickly turned into short sequences with two or three competitors at a time while everyone else was down at ringside until it was their turn.
This setup allowed us to see several different combinations of opponents work together, but it led to a weird pace for several minutes. We saw a lot of good individual spots with very little cohesion or reason for most of what we saw.
The crowd took a little while but eventually got into it and chanted "This is awesome" after a few entertaining moments in a row. After the halfway mark, it felt like everything started clicking together a little more and this turned into an enjoyable melee that outshined the men's match..
After Chelsea came so close to winning, Stratton pulled down the briefcase to claim the win and a future title shot.
Result: Stratton won Money in the Bank
