7 Ups & 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE SmackDown (May 14)

6. Ricochet Stands Tall

While WWE's established booking patterns mean Ricochet standing tall with the Money In The Bank briefcase means he has no chance of taking the victory this Sunday night, it was nice to see the company putting their spotlight on him, despite his clean loss to Baron Corbin 24 hours prior.

The high-flyer hit the ring after Andrade four-way victory. He soared over the top rope, attached himself to the ladder, and knocked the former La Sombra down, allowing him to seize the case to a big pop from the crowd. They'll respond similarly if, somehow, he repeats the feet on Sunday evening, even if he's far likelier to lose after stealing the show with stunts and acrobatics.
