COMPLETE WWE MONEY IN THE BANK PPV COVERAGE

By Mike Johnson on 2020-05-10 18:08:00

Backstage, R-Truth was sad.  Charly Caruso tried to interview him.  He said he beat MVP tonight and should be on Cloud Nine.  He has no one to celebrate with, showing a photo of the WWE 24/7 title belt.  He said it was time for him to get his baby back.  He's going to track down Tom Brady and take down his title.  He stormed off.  Charly looked at the camera and said, "Tom Brady....he means Rob Gronkowski."

MONEY IN THE BANK MATCH

They have theme songs playing for the talents as they appear.  

The women are starting in the lobby.  The men are in the gym.  Asuka did not appear when her music played.  Turns out she was on another floor above.  She dove off onto all the other women, wiping them out.  Asuka danced to an elevator as they all tried to stop the door.  She danced in the elevator as the rest charged for the stairs

The men all circled each other and brawled in the gym.  Corbin threw a weight at Bryan but missed and shattered the mirrored wall that has been there forever.  Lots of spots with Rey using weight equipment as his base to do lucha spots and head scissors.   Otis lifted up a big bar bell with heavy weights on it and put it on Styles to trap him.  Styles asked Rey for help but he turned down Styles.

They are playing dramatic music under all this.  No commentary.

The man charged through the hallways of the Tower.  Rey stopped at the bathroom when a toilet flushed and out walked BROTHER LOVE.  He told Rey he loved him and Rey said, "I love you too, but I gotta go" and ran off.   That was funny.  Everyone else battled in the hallway and into an elevator.  Rey missed the elevator and kept running,

The women battled their way up a flight of stairs and pressed a button on an elevator.  The doors opened and the guys all spilled out, so now everyone was in the same place.  Asuka's elevator opened and she was all this and hid in the elevator.  The man battled into a room that was set up as a backdrop for photos with ringropes and Bryan tied up Corbin in the ropes.  Doink the Clown peered up from behind a chair.

In another part of the building, Nia crashed Dana Brooke through a door.  Shayna followed and tossed her over a conference table.  Nia and Shayna battled each other.  Shayna was taken down.  Nia was nailed with a chair by Dana.  Dana saw a briefcase hanging above the table and removed it.  Stephanie McMahon told her she was in the MITB Conference Room and the real briefcase was on the roof.  Carmella nailed Dana with a picture frame and moonwalked out of the room.

AJ Styles, free, said he was looking for Rey.  He got scared when he came across a photo of The Undertaker in a hallway.  He opened a door and The Undertaker's music played.  Styles had a "flashback" to the Boneyard Match.  He said, "No way" and tried to back out of the room but Aleister Black kicked him into it and closed the door as Styles screamed "No!"

We went to catering, where Paul Heyman was about to eat a sandwich.  Everyone spilled in from different doors.  Dana ran in with the picture frame around her head.  Otis called for a food fight and smashed a plate of food into Heyman, who stood there stunned.  Everyone had a food fight. Shayna grabbed Rey in a choke.  Otis and Nia sandwiched Rey.  This is entertaining as hell. 

Nia powerbombed Carmella through a table and left her laying.  She faced off with Otis, who was chomping away on some food, then they exited through different doors.  Otis ended up in the cafeteria serving room and was excited by pies.  John Laurinaits showed up in an electric scooter and said "People Power!"  Otis pied him in the face.

In another room, a janitor was mopping the floor.  Asuka showed up and tried to get directions to the roof in Japanese.  The other women followed and Asuka threw his mop at her.  Dana  Brooke, bringing up the rear, fell on the wet floor.   The women battled their way to a stairway.

Elsewhere, the men battled their way through the Tower.  Styles and Bryan battled into Vince McMahon's office.  Vince was sitting there and stood up, with his theme music playing.  They stopped and looked at him and he yelled at them to get out.  They fixed his office up and left.  Outside, Styles told Bryan he was acting like a coward in there.  Bryan said he's the one who said to put the chairs back.  Styles agreed that he did and they continued fighting.  Corbin and Black joined the fray.  They all battled into another conference room.  Styles was tossed into the wall.  Corbin declared he was going to the roof.

They had an outside camera shot rising up the side of the building and an overhead shot of the ring on the roof.  Nia and Asuka brawled into the ring.  Lacey followed and speared Asuka.  Nia pressed Lacey overhead and dropped her.    Nia brought a ladder into the ring.  She set it up.  Everyone battled.  Asuka pulled her off and did the same to Lacey.  Asuka toppled the ladder over onto Nia.  Lacey attacked Asuka and drove her face into the ladder over and over.

Lacey tried to make her wau up the ladder but Asuka pulled her down and began ascending the ladder.  Lacey followed and climbed right behind her, grabbing Asuka by the hair to keep her from reaching the briefcase.  Asuka knocked her down onto Nia in the ring.  Asuka climbed the ladder as Baron Corbin climbed and tried to grab his case.  He tried to move Asuka so she kicked him.  Asuka removed the case and won the MITB Briefcase.

Your winner of the Women's MITB Match, Asuka!

The Men's match continues.

Otis emerged on the roof, tripping.  They kept that in.  Otis tried to climb the ladder but the rungs broke under his weight.  Corbin attacked him with the ladder and charged him in the corner.  Otis moved and Corbin hit the corner and crashed to the mat.  Otis did the caterpillar.    Rey hit the ring with a sit-down Thesz Press.  Rey and Black battled to the top of the ladder.  Styles shoved it over.  Rey bounced to the outside where Corbin TOSSED HIM OFF THE ROOF.  Black and Corbin battled and Black was TOSSED OFF THE ROOF TOO.

The remaining four, uh, living? competitors battled in the ring.  Styles nailed Otis with a Pele Kick.  He came off the ropes.  Styles and Corbin battled to the top of the ladder over the case.  They removed it but battled over it.  Elias showed up and nailed Corbin with a guitar.  That caused Styles to fumble the case and it landed in the hands of OTIS!

Your winner, Otis!

Well, you have to give them credit.  That was a hell of a lot of FUN and that's what everyone can use these days, something fun to distract them and make them laugh and entertain them.

If you watch the WWE title bout and the Money in the Bank match, you will enjoy yourself.  The rest was standard, pedestrian stuff for the most part.
