Money In The Bank



Money in the Bank will feature professional wrestling matches that involve wrestlers from pre-existing feuds, plots, and storylines that play out on WWE's primary television programs, Raw and SmackDown. Wrestlers will portray villains or heroes as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.
At WWE Payback in June, a promo was aired for Rob Van Dam - last seen in the WWE in 2009 Royal Rumble match - announcing his return to the company at Money in the Bank.

On the June 17th episode of Raw, WWE Champion John Cena cut a promo in the ring, recalling his several woes and failures in 2012, and his eventual return to the main event of WrestleMania 29, where he finally defeated The Rock and won the WWE Championship, ultimately thanking the fans for their support to him and declaring an open challenge to the winner of the WWE title Money in the Bank Ladder match at the namesake pay-per-view. As he finished, Mark Henry then came out to the ring to seemingly announce his retirement. After an "emotional" promo, as Cena went to congratulate him, Henry revealed the act as a ruse to attack Cena with the World's Strongest Slam and declare his intentions to challenge for the one major championship he has never won in his career, the WWE Championship. Later during the show, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon announced that Cena would defend the WWE title against Henry at the Money in the Bank event.

On the June 24th episode of Raw, it was announced that Dolph Ziggler had invoked his rematch clause and would challenge Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship at the Money in the Bank PPV, following Del Rio defeating Ziggler for the title at Payback. On the same show, Executive VP Stephanie McMahon announced the participants competing in the Money in the Bank ladder match for a contract to wrestle for the WWE Championship, which will include CM Punk, Sheamus, Randy Orton, Daniel Bryan, Christian, the returning Rob Van Dam and Kane. The same night, after both had complained about being left off the PPV, Ryback and Chris Jericho were booked in a match against each other at Money in the Bank by Raw Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Also on this show, The Usos won a Triple Threat tag team match (defeating Tons of Funk and 3MB's Jinder Mahal & Drew McIntyre) to become number one contenders to the WWE Tag Team Championship, earning a title match vs champions The Shield (Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins) which will take place at the Money in the Bank Kickoff Show, 30 minutes prior to the start of the PPV broadcast.

On the June 28th episode of SmackDown, Senior Advisor Teddy Long announced that United States Champion Dean Ambrose, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Fandango, Antonio Cesaro, Jack Swagger, and Wade Barrett would be the participants in the Money in the Bank ladder match for a contract to wrestle for the World Heavyweight Championship.

On the July 1st episode of Raw, It was announced that Curtis Axel will defend the Intercontinental Championship against The Miz, and that Kaitlyn would invoke her rematch clause and challenge AJ Lee for the Divas Championship, which Lee defeated Kaitlyn for at Payback.

On the July 8th episode of Raw, Kane was removed from the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match after being injured due to an attack by the Wyatt Family.
