What passed off inside the undercard, in which top championships from Raw and SmackDown were at stake in fit providing the quality and brightest the company has to offer?
Find out now with this recap of the July 2 extravaganza.
Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Drew McIntyre vs. Madcap Moss vs. Riddle vs. Seth Rollins vs. Sheamus vs. Sami Zayn vs. Omos

United States Championship Match: Bobby Lashley vs. Theory
Unified WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Street Profits vs. The Usos
Lacey Evans, Raquel Rodriguez, Becky Lynch, Asuka, Liv Morgan, Shotzi and Alexa Bliss battled inside the first Money inside the Bank Ladder suit of Saturday’s broadcast.
After years of gradually mountaineering up the ranks inside the girls’s division in WWE, Morgan ultimately scored the biggest victory of her profession, preventing Lynch from grabbing the coveted briefcase. Instead of Big Time Becks capturing what nearly absolutely would have been every other identify reign, the lone survivor of The Riott Squad paid off her exhausting journey in grand fashion.
Ironically enough, at the palms of Lynch, who previously foiled her greatest shot at a championship victory.
No Superstar on this match has suffered more from start-and-stop pushes, persevered more innovative uncertainty, or continuously worn her passion on her face extra than Morgan has during the last 600-plus days. She earned this win and whatever comes due to it.
The fit, like the Raw and SmackDown girls’s divisions of late, become hardly ever ideal. It changed into disjointed at times and the inexperience on this specific suit form of several of the contributors was evident. Despite it all, the a laugh was real and the group grew warmer for the bout down the stretch, making it a stable desire for the opener.
With Bianca Belair scheduled to defend her Raw Women’s Championship in opposition to Carmella later in the night time, and SmackDown’s Ronda Rousey setting her title on the road in opposition to Natalya, the query now will become whether or not we see Morgan once more

Morgan wins Money in the Bank briefcase, defeating Lynch, Rodriguez, Shotzi, Bliss, Asuka, Evans

Top Moments
Rodriguez took Lynch and Morgan over with a suplex at the ladder in the first, “oh rattling…That hurt” second of the night.
The goodwill generated by Evans’ return promos is all but gone at this point, as evidenced by means of the boos that observed her tried climbs.
Morgan introduced a sunset turn powerbomb from the top of the ladder to Evans, in one of the best spots of the whole suit.
Shotzi and Bliss had an ugly moment wherein one of the ladders did now not cooperate, main to the latter finishing up crashing into the weapon lower back- and hip-first.
A top-of-the-ladder leg drops from Lynch to Asuka, who was sprawled on any other, bridging ladder. Though the latter ladder (say that 10 times rapid) failed to break, it becomes still a crowd-captivating spot.
Lynch dumped Shotzi, Rodriguez, Evans, and Bliss off the ladder but did not capture the briefcase as Morgan reduce her off in a fantastic, dramatic finish.
