Penta wins Money in the Bank at WWE event in Mexico City

"

Lead Rumor: Penta’s Money in the Bank win When WWE hit Mexico City and Penta, fresh off a tournament victory to become the new number one contender to the world heavyweight championship, tore the house down with Roman Reigns in the main event, it was clear the industry veteran had made an impression. As it turns out, everything changed that night. According to WrestleVotes, just one month ago “he wasn’t supposed to be in this spot.” He became the creative favorite following the showing in Mexico City. More or less, his big push that we are seeing now came together in a hurry. Time will tell if he can carry the momentum, and if the briefcase (the coolest of all time, by the way) will take him to the promised land. Other rumors floating around Sticking with Money in the Bank winners, Votes also notes Tiffany Stratton’s win was due to WWE wanting to stay out ahead of fan predictions. Too many people got on board with Roxanne Perez winning, and because they sensed folks seeing it coming, they pivoted to Stratton, who has a built in story for it. Last one from Votes on Money in the Bank: Je’Von Evans’ big spot taking a bump through the roof of an ambulance came about out of a desire to go viral and protect him in defeat. There are apparently two possibilities for the air date for The John Cena Classic, per Fightful Select: Dec. 12 after Wrestlepalooza and Dec. 19 up against AEW’s Worlds End show. Nikki Bella said on The Nikki & Brie Show that she had a thumb injury that led to her no longer having feeling in said thumb. Get in on the fun and share what you’ve got, y’all.
