5 WWE Stars Vince McMahon Never Pushes At Money In The Bank (And 5 He Always Does)
Vince McMahon pushes a particular type of superstar at the post 'Mania pay-per-view.
The Money in the Bank pay-per-view event is one of the most exciting shows in professional wrestling history because WWE launches the up and coming stars to the main event scene during this season. Over the years, the Superstars like Edge, Rob Van Dam, CM Punk, The Miz, Kane, Alberto Del Rio, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, Seth Rollins, and several others have seized the world title after successfully cashing in their Money in the Bank contract.
The organization conducts two ladder matches every year at this event, where multiple wrestlers compete against each other to grab the career-changing briefcase. Besides, just like every other monthly select show of the firm, many other bouts happen at this post 'Mania PPV. Some champions put their titles on the line while the non-title matches fill up the remaining slots. During the last five years, the fans have witnessed a particular trend in the booking style of Vince McMahon.
The Chairman has pushed specific wrestlers at this event, whereas some stars have never received a powerful booking during this phase of the year. Here's a look at the five superstars whom the writers always push at Money in the Bank and five that they never do.
10. ALWAYS Pushes - Alexa Bliss
One half of the reigning WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Alexa Bliss, has a 100% win record at the Money in the Bank event. Although she has been a part of the show only once in 2018, she defeated some of the biggest names of the company's women's division that night to become the RAW Women's Champion. 'Little Miss Bliss' competed with Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Ember Moon, Lana, Naomi, Natalya, and Sasha Banks in the first-ever dual-brand women's ladder match for the briefcase.
She outlasted every female pro wrestler in the bout to become the first woman from Monday night RAW to win the contract. 'The Harley Quinn of WWE' decided to exercise her right to challenge for the title on the same night as she interfered in the match between Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey. Bliss then pinned 'The Irresistible Force' to leave the Allstate Arena as the new champ. 'Five Feet of Fury' could not compete in the 2019 show, which helped her maintain her clinical record.
Given that she recently picked up the tag titles with Nikki Cross, it is unlikely that the duo would lose their crowns if the creative team books them in a championship match at this year's show. Bliss's record at this event indicates that the backstage officials love to push her in the post 'Mania season.
