For the first time ever, WWE will present an all-female Money In The Bank match this Sunday. That's historic, and follows on nicely from the Hell In A Cell and Iron (wo)Man bouts worked by Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair last year. Now, Charlotte has the chance to make more history.

Aside from that, the SmackDown Tag, Women's and WWE Titles will all be on the line. With SummerSlam looming, it's important WWE make the right choices here and book the right winners. After all, who wants to see Tamina, for example, become Miss. Money In The Bank - or The Usos continue their dull reign as tag champs?

SmackDown hasn't been as good since the 'Superstar Shakeup', but this pay-per-view could change that. If nothing else, the intrigue over when both Money In The Bank briefcases will be cashed in adds some spark.

Get it right, WWE. SummerSlam may depend on it...

Why dilute the atmosphere surrounding a true first in WWE history by having the male Money In The Bank match open this Sunday's pay-per-view? That slot belongs to the 5 women taking the plunge, because things will just feel way more special, should the women's MITB bout go on first.

Imagine the excitement should Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Carmella, Natalya and Tamina come out to open the show. Charlotte has already crashed Natalya through the announce desk, and fans are eager for more of that kind of carnage featuring SmackDown's ladies. The situation demands weapon shots and big bumps aplenty.

Give your women this platform, WWE, and you won't be disappointed.

It's imperative that the girls go out before their male counterparts and are allowed to make all the high spots associated with Money In The Bank their own.
