(Photo by WWE/Getty Images) | WWE via Getty Images In mid-2025, we learned that WWE would hold this year’s WrestleMania 42 premium live event in Las Vegas for the second-straight year rather than in the previously announced location of New Orleans. As a make-good, NOLA would get 2026’s Money in the Bank show. At that time, the annual briefcase climb was set for Sat., Aug. 29. When they sent out pre-sale registration information to prospective ticket buyers, the date for Money in the Bank 2026 had moved out a week to Sun., Sept. 6. Until today (June 8), when they announced the presale and on-sale date for tickets and we learned that one of modern WWE’s signature PLEs now won’t happen until October. Here’s the official word from WWE: New Orleans to host Money in the Bank on Saturday, October 10 June 8, 2026 – WWE, in conjunction with the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation and Legends Global, today announced that Money in the Bank will now take place Saturday, October 10 — one month later than originally announced — at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. Money in the Bank features WWE’s biggest Superstars as they battle to earn a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match at a time and place of their choosing anytime within the next year. Tickets will go on sale starting Friday, July 10 at 10am ET via Ticketmaster.com. Fans can purchase tickets during an exclusive presale starting Thursday, July 9 at 10am ET. Fans can register for the Thursday, July 9 general presale by visiting: https://www.wwe.com/mitb-2026. Additional information can be found at WWE.com/Events. Official Money in the Bank Priority Passes will soon be available through exclusive partner On Location, offering fans premium seating, hospitality events featuring Superstar appearances, exclusive photo opportunities and more.

Of the 16 previous Money in the Bank events, none of have fallen later on the calendar than July 18 (in 2010 and 2021). So this year’s version was always going to occur farther into the year than any MitB PLE has before, and now it won’t be until the fall, and could be the last event prior to Survivor Series in November. Does that change WWE’s approach to storytelling with the briefcases, and the anytime title shot they entitle their holders to? Does it change your excitement for the ladder matches or what follows? Sound off below.
