10 Times WWE Decided To Switch WWE Champions RIGHT BEFORE Entrances
9. Mustafa Ali Has His Guaranteed Title Shot Torn Away - Money In The Bank, 2019
Now this may not technically count as a last-minute title switch, admittedly. But with it coming literally as the entrance themes were playing coming into a match that all-but guarantees you walking out of an arena with a world title strap around your waist should you successfully climb the ladder, your writer is making an exception!
Lining up alongside a truly stacked field in the men's 2019 Money in the Bank ladder match, Mustafa Ali was very much under the impression that he would be walking out of the arena as your new briefcase holder on the day of the event. In fact, that was still reportedly the plan as the match looked set to kick off. However, things would take an unforeseen turn once Ali was gearing himself up to make his entrance.
As Baron Corbin's tunes blasted through the arena's speakers, the high flying babyface was informed of the new plan involving Ali grabbing hold of the briefcase and waiting for a monumental surprise. Cue a Beast Incarnate bursting into the match late on and knocking Ali off the steps as he gave birth to the Brock Party we didn't know we needed.
