WWE heads to Las Vegas this weekend for what is always one of the company’s best pay-per-views of the entire year.
After being moved from the larger Allegiant Stadium, Money in the Bank 2022 will be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday night. The PPV is being headlined by the men’s and women’s Money in the Bank ladder matches, with each winner able to cash in their title shot contract at any point within the next year.
It appeared that Money in the Bank was originally going to be what kickstarted Cody Rhodes’s journey to the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. He was going to be the heavy favorite to win the men’s ladder match and set up a future showdown with Roman Reigns, but Rhodes is instead facing several months out of action after undergoing surgery for a torn pectoral muscle. As much as suffering a significant injury just two months into his WWE return is awful timing for Rhodes, he made the best of a bad situation with his heroic performance at Hell in a Cell. Working through his torn pec to still deliver an incredible Hell in a Cell match against Seth Rollins will always be a defining moment in Rhodes’s career—and it has only increased anticipation for when he’ll be able to return and go after the world title again.
