Regardless of Rusev's absence, Lana picked up the win over Billie Kay and now advances to the female Money In The Bank Ladder match next month. That's a pretty big deal for Lana, and it showed in her post-match reaction.

Something that's flown a little under the radar, despite Tom Phillips bringing it up once, is that the win over Kay was Lana's first televised singles win in WWE. As much as it's true she may never become one of the top female workers in the company, it is nice to see her own desire to improve be rewarded by creative.

Now, Lana's big challenge will be preparing herself for the spot-heavy style of MITB matches. There's going to be a lot for her to remember on the night.
