WWE will break new ground with the first ever women's Money In The Bank ladder match on June 18th. The bout has been rumoured for weeks, but SmackDown Commissioner Shane McMahon finally made the announcement on last night's show, interrupting a huge brawl in the process.

Charlotte, Natalya, Becky Lynch, Carmella, and Tamina were set to fight for the right to challenge Women's Champion Naomi at MITB, but a fight broke out, ending with Charlotte powerbombing Natalya through an announce table. McMahon's arrival brought an end to the chaos, and all five women are set to battle for the briefcase.

SmackDown also featured The New Day's first appearance since the Superstar Shake-Up, with the popular trio interrupting a mid-show promo from from Tag Team Champions The Usos. Xavier Woods revealed that they'll challenge for the belts at Money In The Bank, which leaves the card looking like this:-
