WWE Money In The Bank is upon us as the wrestling giant returns to Toronto, Canada for a rare North American premium live event.

For the first time since Philadelphia hosted WrestleMania in April, the company will host one of its monthly shows in familiar territory after consecutive PLEs in France, Saudi Arabia and Glasgow.

Fans in Toronto this weekend will be treated to two of WWE’s most high risk and thrilling bouts as six men and six women compete in their respective ladder matches for a chance at glory.

The winners of the two bouts get a briefcase containing a contract which guarantees them a world championship opportunity over the next 12 months, with last year’s winners Damian Priest and Iyo Sky greatly benefiting.

Both fields are packed with superstars yet to reach those heights, making for an unpredictable night, while two title bouts and an epic six-man grudge match set the table for something special.

Here is everything you need to know about this weekend’s huge show.

When is WWE Money In The Bank 2024?

WWE Money In The Bank airs tomorrow (Saturday, July 6) from Toronto, Canada with the premium live event kicking off at 1am for fans watching in the UK.

How can you watch WWE Money In The Bank?

The usual Kickoff preview show – which is available to stream via the WWE Network, as well as WWE.com, the WWE app, X, Facebook, YouTube and Twitch – will start an hour before the main show at midnight.

Fans will be able to tune into the main Money In The Bank card either live or on demand via the WWE Network, or by ordering the show on TNT Sports Box Office.

That will all change in the New Year when WWE’s content makes the move to Netflix in January 2025 as part of a huge $5 billion deal.

WWE Money In The Bank 2024 predictions

Last month, we said Drew McIntyre had to win in Glasgow – but, WWE found a creative way to cost him a hometown win, and he’s likely to come up short here too.

As much as the Scottish Warrior is a worthy champion, his descent into bitterness and desperation is the story here, so look for him to get screwed out of another shot, maybe even by CM Punk’s wife AJ Lee.

Instead, LA Knight should be the one to claim the men’s briefcase after he missed out last year, although the likes of Chad Gable, Andrade, Carmelo Hayes and Jey Uso could all use the prize to elevate themselves up the card.

For the women’s bout, Chelsea Green and Tiffany Stratton stand out as the two clear choices battling for the win, and the former certainly deserves to be rewarded for her talent, entertainment value and pure dedication.

Bron Breakker is a rookie primed for big things, and that could come at the expense of Sami Zayn this weekend, as much as the Intercontinental Champion deserves an extended run with the gold.

However, the rising star needs to keep looking strong, and a title win here would be a clear statement of intent.

The evening’s other championship match is much tougher to call, as it’s hard to imagine Seth Rollins losing and thus never getting another title shot.

However, it’s also wild to think of Damian Priest losing and having to quit The Judgment day – which may just edge it as our pick.

Finally, The Bloodline should score a key win here over three veterans in a way that sets the stage for Solo Sikoa to challenge Cody Rhodes for the WWE Title at SummerSlam next month.
