WWE May Be Planning Major Swerve at Money in the Bank With Former Champion’s Surprise Return
LA Knight, a rising star in the WWE, has been widely speculated to secure the Money in the Bank contract in the UK. Despite his popularity among WWE fans, Knight’s ascent to main event status on SmackDown has been hindered by a lack of push from the company. However, recent reports from BWE via Ringsidenews suggest a potential shift in this narrative. While Knight remains a contender, another unannounced name is being discussed, sparking intrigue among fans.
Drew McIntyre, absent since WrestleMania, is speculated to be this surprise entrant. McIntyre, currently in a contract dispute with WWE, was instrumental in bringing the company to the UK and contributed significantly to the success of Clash at the Castle. The Scottish Warrior’s return at Money in the Bank, potentially winning the contract in his homeland, could serve as a redemption arc following his Clash at the Castle loss.
This speculation aligns with WWE’s tradition of incorporating shocks into Money in the Bank, suggesting that Vince McMahon and Triple H might be planning McIntyre’s triumphant return.
