4 Predictions for WWE Money in the Bank 2019

The highly anticipated and the much-hyped pay-per-view of May 2019, Money In the Bank, is just two weeks away. Scheduled for May 19, the event will take pace live from the XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut. Well, WWE has already booked eight highly profile matches for the event so far. While Seth Rollins is scheduled to defend his Universal Championship in a dream match against AJ Styles, Becky Lynch will feature in two separate matches against Lacey Evans and Charlotte Flair to defend her Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships, respectively.

Furthermore, the men's and women's MITB ladder matches will feature some high profile as well as some young talents from both the rosters. And given the price at stake, it will be interesting to witness the intensity and urge among the superstars in both these matches.

Even though the event is still two weeks away, Social Media is buzzing with rumours and all sorts of permutation and combinations. People are coming up with a new set of speculations and predictions with each passing hour. And rightfully so, I mean, the recent turn of events has well and truly hyped the event. Thus, to feed all our curiosities, let's take a look at 4 huge predictions for MITB 2019.

#4 Mandy Rose wins the Women's Money in the bank ladder match

Well, WWE has announced Dana Brooke, Natalya, Alexa Bliss, Naomi, Bayley, Mandy Rose, Ember Moon and Carmella as participants for the women's MITB ladder match for May 19. While there are some deserving names in that participant's list, Mandy Rose looks a bit ahead in the race at the present moment.

Yes, Mandy has been nothing sort of impressive in her recent stint on the blue brand. Her in-ring ability and charm combined with her unparalleled mic skills make her a rare talent. Furthermore, creative seems to be cock-a-hoop with her and as a matter of fact, her push before WrestleMania 35 was a testament of the same. While the push was short-lived, things might take a drastic change after May 19.

#3 Lacey Evans interferes in the Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair match to cost the former her title

Becky Lynch will be in for a double-time as she is scheduled to feature in two separate matches against Charlotte Flair and Lacey Evans for the SmackDown and Raw Women's Championships, respectively. While Becky may seem like the favourite to win both these matches, things may not turn out as expected.

Yes, the mere fact that Becky is featuring in a separate match against Flair to defend her SmackDown title hints us that the Becky 2 Belts gimmick may not last long. Well, given the brand split, it looks totally on the cards. I mean, WWE can't have the same person hold the championships on both the brands for far too long. Thus, titles changing hands on May 19 looks totally on the cards.

However, given the fact that WWE has been building Lynch as the female face of the company, plus her recent feud against Lacy Evans on the red brand, she is more likely to be exclusive to the flagship show of WWE- Monday Night Raw.

Thus, WWE could have Becky retain her title against Evans only for the latter to interfere in her match against Charlotte to cost her the SmackDown Women's title. While this would not undermine Becky, it would certainly add a new chapter in their feud on the red brand.

#2 Drew McIntyre wins the men's Money in the Bank ladder match

McIntyre could become Mr. Money In the Bank on May 19.

Randy Orton, Mustafa Ali, Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, Ricochet, Andrade, Braun Strowman and the current Intercontinental Champion, Finn Balor, are the eight high profile names who will feature in this year's Money in the Bank ladder match on May 19.

While the list does consists of some huge and capable names of both the rosters, Drew McIntyre and Andrade look a bit ahead in the race. Yes, the Scottish Psychopath, Drew McIntyre along with SmackDown's Andrade are the two hot favourites to win the match.

Both the duo has impressed both critics as well as WWE fans alike with their impressive in-ring performance and work ethics. Nonetheless, one can't ignore the fact that WWE has been building McIntyre as the top heel of the company for quite some time now, as a matter of fact, it has been vastly speculated that McIntyre is next in line to replace Rollins as the new Universal Champion.

Thus, when it comes to the last two names of Andrade and McIntyre, the latter seems to have a slight edge on the former and that might just prove to be enough as McIntyre might become Mr. Money in the Bank on May 19.

#1 AJ Styles turns heel

Seth Rollins is scheduled to defend his Universal Championship against The Phenomenal AJ Styles in a dream match at Money In the Bank 2019.

However, it is highly unlikely that WWE will put their feud to bed so early and easily. Yes, while the duo is scheduled to square off against each other on May 19, I don't see WWE getting done with them anytime soon.

Thus, a potential heel turn for either of the duo looks totally on the cards for Money In the Bank. Since WWE has been building Rollins as the top babyface of the company on the red brand, a heel turn for The Phenomenal One makes more sense.

Thus, WWE could have Styles turn rouge on Rollins after the finish of their match to beat the living hell out of him. This would not only add a new chapter in their feud but would also make matters more intense.
