Hey everyone! Ever since Night Of Champions 2015, through multiple accounts, before major WWE pay-per-views every month, I’ve come on here and booked the cards to make them as exciting, intriguing, and best possible scenarios for the future. I do both NXT and main-roster pay-per-views, as well as the occasional big milestone RAW or Smackdown weekly show. [Without further ado, here is how WWE should book Money In The Bank 2021!](link to blog post goes here)

KICKOFF-SHOW:
- We get the usual kickoff panel of Kayla Braxton, JBL, Peter Rosenberg, Jerry Lawler, and Sonya Deville. Throughout the hour, the panel runs down the match card giving their predictions, hyping up the matches and showing us video packages. About halfway through the hour, we get to our kickoff match.
KICKOFF MATCH: Dominik Mysterio and Rey Mysterio (c) vs. The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso) (Tag Team match for the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships)
- The Usos are out first, followed by The Mysterio Family. We get formal ring introductions, and the match gets 16 minutes. This should be very good, but it’s weird to see that they’ve made the decision to put it on the pre-show. Rey Mysterio, the greatest cruiserweight you’ve ever had, and his son, and two other men who are integral parts of the biggest angle in the company. And you put that on the… pre-show? I know there’s always the argument that the pre-show is some kind of honor and fans will always try to twist it into a positive because it’s being “seen by more people”.
WINNERS by PINFALL and STILL WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champions: Domink Mysterio and Rey Mysterio
- The panel gives their final predictions for the two Money In The Bank Ladder matches and we get to the main show.
MAIN SHOW
- GUESS WHO’S BACK. BACK AGAIN. FANS ARE BACK. CLIMB A LADDER. GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK, GUESS WHO’S BACK. Also… MONEY cha-ching MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY, (money money money money money money)
1ST MATCH: Rhea Ripley (c) vs. Charlotte Flair (Singles match for the WWE RAW Women’s Championship)
WINNER by SUBMISSION and NEW WWE RAW Women’s Champion: Charlotte Flair
- We get an ad with WWE Wrestlers promoting getting the vaccine, followed by an ad for SummerSlam, next month in Vegas. We then fade-in to a backstage interview with Charlotte Flair coming through the curtain, fresh off just having won the RAW Women’s Title. Charlotte cuts a boisterous heel promo about how many title regions she’s had, she plays off the crowd by pushing all their buttons in the right way, saying that people say she hogs all the opportunities, etc. Really have her rile up the crowd here. She also runs down each of the 8 competitors in the Women’s MITB ladder match coming up next, and teases possible involvement if she sees the match leaning in favor of something that doesn’t go her way, like Alexa Bliss for example, wh-
2ND MATCH: Alexa Bliss (RAW) vs. Asuka (RAW) vs. Liv Morgan (SmackDown) vs. Naomi (RAW) vs. Natalya (SmackDown) vs. Nikki A.S.H. (RAW) vs. Tamina (SmackDown) vs. Zelina Vega (SmackDown) (Women’s Money In The Bank Ladder match)
- Nikki A.S.H. is out first, followed by Asuka, followed by Natalya, then
WINNER and 2021 MRS. MONEY IN THE BANK: Liv Morgan
- We get an ad for WWE back on the road and their continued tour dates, highlighting everything leading up to SummerSlam and beyond in August. We then get an ad for Peacock and everything that the streaming service has to offer.
3RD MATCH: AJ Styles and Omos (c) vs. The Viking Raiders (Erik and Ivar) (Tag Team match for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships)
*
WINNERS by PINFALL and STILL WWE RAW Tag Team Champions: AJ Styles and Omos
- We get an ad for WWE On Draftkings and the WWE Undefeated mobile game, followed by a video package for our next match.
4TH MATCH: Bobby Lashley (c) (w/ MVP) vs. Kofi Kingston (w/ Xavier Woods) (Singles match for the WWE Championship)
WINNER by FORFEIT after Woods threw in the towel on behalf of Kingston, and STILL WWE Champion: Bobby Lashley
- We get an ad for WWEShop, and then we go backstage to a shot of Edge warming up for the Universal Championship match tonight, and then cut to a shot of Paul Heyman right outside Roman Reigns’ locker room, clearly in a bad mood and obnoxiously declines an interview from Kayla Braxton by slamming the door in her face. We get a video package for the Men’s MITB Ladder match up next, featuring the history of the match and it’s winners, and little inset promos from all 8 competitors.
5TH MATCH: Big E (SmackDown) vs. Drew McIntyre (RAW) vs. John Morrison (RAW) (w/ The Miz) vs. Kevin Owens (SmackDown) vs. King Nakamura (SmackDown) vs. Ricochet (RAW) vs. Riddle (RAW) vs. Seth Rollins (SmackDown) (Men’s Money In The Bank Ladder match)
WINNER and 2021 MR. MONEY IN THE BANK: Big E
- We get another ad for Peacock, and an ad for SummerSlam, and then we cut backstage to catch Big E coming through the curtain, briefcase in hand,
