Rhea Ripley confronted WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton on SmackDown, creating buzz ahead of the Money in the Bank event. As the build-up for the June 7 event continues, all six women in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match showcased their skills on the show.
The Money in the Bank briefcase is a prized possession in WWE. The winner can challenge any champion at any time. Historically, every woman holding the briefcase has successfully cashed in to become a champion, making it a coveted opportunity.
During SmackDown, Stratton expressed her confidence about being prepared for any challenger. However, Ripley, one of WWE’s most popular figures, interrupted. She reminded the champion of her championship experience, saying, “I know what it feels like to be a champion. And I miss that feeling.”
The episode also featured a six-woman tag team match, where Ripley teamed up with Alexa Bliss and Stephanie Vaquer against Naomi, Roxanne Perez, and Giulia. Despite being isolated early on, Ripley turned the match around after tagging in, but Perez later countered with a Tornado DDT. After a series of exchanges, Ripley finished with a Riptide on Perez for the victory.
As fans eagerly await the Money in the Bank pay-per-view in Los Angeles, the card is packed with excitement. Featured matches include Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso versus John Cena and Logan Paul, and the Women’s Intercontinental Championship match between Lyra Valkyria and Becky Lynch, among others.
With each competitor vying for a chance at the briefcase, the anticipation builds for the high-stakes matches set to unfold. Ripley’s warning to Stratton hints at a fierce competition ahead, showcasing her determination to reclaim championship glory.
