5 Best Case Scenario WWE Money In The Bank 2021 Winners (And 5 Worst)

6. Worst - Nia Jax

This much is clear from the last year or so of Nia Jax's booking - if she wins the briefcase, she won't be one of holders known more for losing matches than winning before she cashes in.

WWE's creative team - or at very least the mad billionaire that oversees the - are enamoured with Jax to such an extent that the potential collapse of her "uneasy alliance" with Shayna Baszler seems more driven by the failings of the 'Queen Of Spades' than anything else. Baszler has effectively been sacrificed to protecting Jax ahead of whatever comes next, and what comes next could be something she's never won before.

'The Irresistible Force' can sometimes make a decent (and dangerous) challenger for a babyface champion, but her size and strength advantage over almost everybody she faces makes her the least intriguing briefcase holder since Brock Lesnar, and at least he turned it into a boombox.

WWE won't have that level of creative energy for their horrendously-booked women's division. And if they do, Jax is better suited without such a mammoth additional advantage.
