Kevin Owens got the final spot in the men’s Money in the Bank ladder match. He defeated Cody Rhodes and Johnny Gargano in the final Triple Threat qualifying match on SmackDown from Denver.

Here’s a look at the entire Money in the Bank card including all of the qualifiers on the men’s and women’s side. Let’s talk WWE.

The card as announced so far for New Orleans.
| Match | Participants |
|---|---|
| World Heavyweight Championship | Roman Reigns (c) vs. LA Knight |
| Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match | Kevin Owens, CM Punk, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans, Penta, Bron Breakker |
| Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match | Tiffany Stratton, Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Jacy Jayne, Roxanne Perez, Lash Legend |
| Singles match | Oba Femi vs. Bronson Reed |
The men’s field is so stacked and there is a combination of big names and up-and-coming stars. Owens, CM Punk, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans, Penta and Bron Breakker make up the field. The early favorites have to be Owens, Penta and Breakker. It feels too early for Evans to win and Trick is already the U.S. champion. Punk is fresh off a title run, so why does he need to win MITB? Then again, that hasn’t stopped them before.
The women’s MITB match could be a great match. Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Jacy Jayne, Roxanne Perez, Lash Legend and Tiffany Stratton is an exciting collection. Perez and Jayne have to be the top choices to win, but we’ll see. In any case, the overall the card should be strong.
