The WWE just shook things up! In a surprising move, they've shifted the date for the highly anticipated Money in the Bank event in 2026. But here's the twist: it's not just a simple date change.
Originally, the plan was for WrestleMania 42 to take place in New Orleans, but it was relocated to Las Vegas. As a silver lining, New Orleans was awarded the Money in the Bank event, initially scheduled for Saturday, August 29, 2026. However, WWE has now officially announced a new date: Sunday, September 6, 2026, at the Smoothie King Center.
Money in the Bank is a thrilling spectacle where WWE's top Superstars fight for a coveted briefcase, granting them a championship match contract whenever and wherever they choose within the next year. It's a chance for these athletes to seize their destiny and make history.
And here's where it gets interesting: this date change means WWE fans will have to choose between Money in the Bank and AEW's All Out 2026, as they will no longer be held on the same weekend. AEW's event is set for August 30 in London's Wembley Stadium. Will this scheduling conflict impact ticket sales and fan attendance? Only time will tell.
For those eager to secure their spot at Money in the Bank, WWE has opened pre-sale registration, with additional ticket details to be revealed in the coming months. And for the ultimate experience, Official Money in the Bank Priority Passes will be available through On Location, offering premium seating, exclusive events with Superstar appearances, and more. Fans can already place deposits to ensure they don't miss out.
So, what do you think of this unexpected change? Are you excited for Money in the Bank's new date, or do you prefer the original schedule? Let the debate begin in the comments!
