We’re just hours away from WWE Money in the Bank 2026, coming live Saturday night from New Orleans. There are five matches on the card – two Money in the Bank ladder matches, two World Championship matches and two real big boys – and as always, the Wrestling Inc. staff is here to predict the winners of each one.
How are our predictions going lately, you ask? Not too bad, actually! We did not have perfection. across the board AEW All out!but we did pretty well all things considered. Granted, this isn’t the easiest MITB to call; the ladder matches seem especially wide open, but we’re pretty sure we know how things will go down. Who walks out of New Orleans with wins, gold and briefcases? Let’s go to the options.
Men’s money in the bank ladder match. Bron Breaker (50%)
It’s been said before, but it’s now or never for The Vision’s Bron Breaker, though he’s up against some stiff competition in Penta, CM Punk and Kevin Owens, along with newcomers Je’Von Evans and United States Champion Trick Williams in the Money in the Bank ladder match. 50 percent of us believe he’s going to climb the ladder and grab the briefcase.
If Breaker is truly going to be the future of WWE, he’s going to need the Money in the Bank contract. We think he needs it the most since Penta is already over, especially after his World Championship match with Roman Reigns in Mexico City, and Punk and Owens are involved in their own storylines for the undisputed WWE Championship on the blue brand, among several other contenders. Williams already holds gold and Evans hasn’t been anywhere close to peaking at the titles, though there’s still plenty of time for the “Young OG.”
Breaker has been on the cusp of greatness for quite some time, dating back to when he was carrying the World Heavyweight Championship on his shoulder after an injury to Seth Rollins. While some fans expected him to defeat Punk and win the gold officially at the beginning of the year it never happened. To him Plans for WrestleMania 42 were also derailed by injury. Since then, he’s been on a down-and-out story alongside The Vision, and winning the MITB briefcase is just what Breaker needs to get back to the level he started at in 2026 and beyond if he can successfully cash in on it.

Women’s money in the bank ladder game. Roxanne Perez (71%)
We said that six months agoRoxanne Perez should be released from Judgment Day. One way to do that is to win the Women’s Money in the Bank briefcase and potentially stay in position as world champion.
As it is, Perez’s Doomsday stablemate Liv Morgan bills herself as “the greatest women’s champion of all time” (emphasis on “all”). Raquel Rodriguez is actively reigning as the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion. Then again, in his case, Perez is called “The Prodigy,” a nickname that suggests something bigger awaits him.
The problem is that Perez has been waiting for something bigger for nearly two years. It will probably stay that way unless he makes a drastic change. At this point, we’re wondering how much longer Perez can continue to be called a “miracle” without real pay. Luckily for her, 71% of us think it’ll only be a matter of days, as she’s become our leader in the Women’s Money in the Bank ladder match.
A win at MITB would guarantee Perez an opportunity to elevate his status for good world champion Furthermore, it will likely provide a way for him to get out of Judgment Day, which will upset a jealous Liv Morgan. As the old saying goes, two birds, one stone.
Of course, we cannot exclude other possibilities of Money in Bank. 14% of WINC staff are betting on it. Tiffany Stratton repeats the story claiming the coveted briefcase and then cashing it in from a close friend, in this case WWE Women’s Champion Chelsea Green. Sol Ruka and WWE United States Women’s Champion Jacey Jane, meanwhile, received 7% of our votes.

Oba Femi vs. Bronson Reed vs. Femi (100%)
While it’s nice to have The Vision back together for the most part, the ship has sailed and WWE needs to focus on its current project, Oba Femi.
As such, 100% of the Wrestling Inc. staff believes that Femi will defeat Reed at Money In The Bank. Reed was at one point in the position Femi is now, a big mother***** ready to rocket into the stratosphere, but that was a few injuries ago. Femi is the man of the moment, the man who retired Brock Lesnar, and the man who has fans in a way Reed doesn’t chant, even in his prime.
WWE simply cannot afford another GUNTHER situation, where a rising former NXT Champion retires Legends of the Ruthless Aggression Era and then continues to achieve little. The road to Oba vs. Roman is clear, which is why the crew is confident a win over Reed will be a big step toward that goal. The fact that he’s not participating in the Money In The Bank match is a good sign that the company isn’t trying to get him to come through. They clearly see him as a bona fide contender, and hopefully that will be true on Saturday.

Women’s World Championship. Stephanie Wacker (71%)
Stephanie Walker will defend her women’s world title against the two who have shared the ring with her since she first won it in Chile last month, facing former champions Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch in a triple threat at Money in the Bank.
Walker defeated Morgan for the title on a live show with Lynch as the special guest referee, marking a change in direction from Walker and Lynch’s pursuit. Morgan was not content to watch Whacker and Lynch fight for the title he had taken and was looking to reclaim it, while Whacker was more than happy to fight the two for the title.
However, it was decided that Lynch and Morgan would fight for the right to face the new champion first, and they met in the ring for it last Monday. However, Wacker made sure to attack them until the final bell to make the triple threat official out of necessity.
It may be the champion’s confident energy that has 71% of the Wrestling Inc. staff predicting he will retain the title when all is said and done. After all, this is his first title defense barely a month after winning the top spot.
Of course, there are 29% who believe he won’t, though interestingly no one believes The Man will claim the title for the first time since 2024. Instead, that whole part is convinced that Morgan will regain his title.

World heavyweight championship. Roman Reigns (93%)
“The Chieftain” Roman Reigns is set to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against the LA Knight, but we just don’t believe it’s “The Megastar’s” time, no matter how well he’s finished in front of the crowd. Most of us here at WINC, 93% to be exact, believe Reigns is leaving New Orleans with the title to head to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to challenge for the Crown Jewel Championship.
If WWE didn’t take the title away from Reigns, at least a few months before WrestleMania season, Beating Penta in Mexico Cityit doesn’t seem likely that someone else will beat OTC before Showcase of the Immortals next year. Oba Femi is waiting in the wings seemingly specifically for ReignsKnight’s chances don’t look good, even months before WrestleMania
There were reports that Reigns and Knight’s go-home segment on “WWE Raw.” where Knight called the champion a “manufactured corporate puppet”. was well received behind the scenes. However, those reports said that Reigns’ match really impressed, which doesn’t bode well for Knight. Fans have also seen through “WWE Unreal” how Knight is sometimes seen backstage by officials like Triple H, and that doesn’t give us much confidence in him.
It’s no secret that WWE wants to please the fans in Saudi Arabia and book Reigns, who is already advertised for Crown Jewelvs. whoever holds the Undisputed WWE Championship on “WWE SmackDown” more than likely. There are mega-fans of The Megastar who would love to see him come through and hold the World Heavyweight Championship, but we don’t believe that’s happening at Money in the Bank.
