5 Superstars WWE should've picked for the women's Money in the Bank ladder match

WWE finally unveiled the participants for the women's Money in the Bank ladder match and again, the company had some brilliant picks but forgot some deserving superstars along the way. Beyond that, it feels like some of the superstars they did pick don't have much reason to be in the match in the first place and were just thrown in as long shots.

For example, while Brooke has been steadily improving since her time being off of television, she seems nowhere even close to being prepared for a match like this. On the other hand, Alexa Bliss, who has had multiple concussion issues over the last couple of months seems like another shaky pick at best and should be protected more than this.

With that being said and the Money in the Bank pay-per-view only a few short weeks away, here are five superstars WWE should have put in the female Money in The Bank pay per view. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to tell us who you want to bring home the coveted briefcase.

#5 Sonya Deville

Will Sonya Deville ever get out from under Mandy Rose's shadow?

Will Sonya Deville ever break out from under Mandy Rose's shadow? It definitely doesn't seem so, especially after Deville conceded her spot in the Money in the Bank ladder match for Rose and will now have to wait a little bit longer for her own opportunity at the Smackdown Live Women's title.

If nothing else, its depressing to see Deville left out of a match like this. Not only is that due to the fact that her brutality would actually do her well in this match, but also by just how deserving she is of her own time to shine on the main roster. Instead, however, WWE keeps shying away from doing something with her.

Think about this way: WWE has been quick to bring up the MMA careers of so many other superstars and use those to turn them into superstars, but for one reason or another, won't do it with Deville. In fact, they seem to be shying away from it completely, which is all the more rage inducing.

#4 Sarah Logan

Did WWE forget about Sarah Logan?

The Riott Squad is now in splitsville and while WWE hasn't done much with any of the members of the former trio, one would have thought that at least one of them would have managed to get a spot in the Money in the Bank ladder match. Unfortunately for fans of the group, all three members have been kept out of the match.

And among those three is Sarah Logan, who seemed like the dominant one of the group during her time with the faction, but still manages to be left out of the Money in the Bank ladder match. Of course, some of that might have to do with her semi Viking gimmick and the rest of her character not being fully fleshed out, but the match would have been a great way to do that.

Think about it! WWE could have at least put Logan in the high profile spot and then used it to set her up for something later. At least that way, her character would be moving forward and not just relegated to an abyss like it is at the moment. Furthermore, it would have been some great character development for the young star!

#3 Ruby Riott

What would the ladder match be without Ruby Riott?

You can't have a Money in the Bank ladder match without a riot! Of course, there's no actual rule that a MITB ladder match has to include a riot, but there should be after up and coming WWE Superstar, Ruby Riott, wasn't picked for the upcoming ladder match. In all honesty, Riott is one of the few superstars that could have helped sell the brutality of the match and it could have also been a career-defining moment for her.

Beyond all that, WWE has been hot and cold on Riott for quite a while now, which makes one wonder if she will ever receive the opportunities she so rightfully deserves. Shes already has proven to be great with a promo, amazing in her role as a heel and has the hard-hitting offense that would really do well here.

In the end, it's just another missed opportunity that WWE is going to have to deal with and hopefully Riott will get a chance at something big in the future.

#2 Zelina Vega

Zelina Vega is a diamond in the rough that WWE needs to do more with.

Another woman WWE seemed to gloss over when deciding on who should be in the Money in the Bank ladder match is none other than Zelina Vega. Sure, some will argue that Vega is better suited for her heel manager role alongside Andrade, but her character would also be great for a ladder match as well.

Like other superstars on this list, she has more of a high flying arsenal that would have flourished in a match like this. Beyond that, she also has the charisma and knows how to make the audience react, which also would have made her an excellent addition to a match like this!

In the end, WWE has a diamond in the rough with Vega and really should try to focus on giving her more things to do in the future. She isn't just a manager, she is someone very capable of manipulating The WWE Universe and WWE needs to explore that a little bit more then what they are already!

#1 Sasha Banks

Sasha Banks deserved to be in this match!

It's no secret that WWE and Sasha Banks aren't on good terms right now, but one would have thought the two entities could work together to get her back in the ring for Money in the Bank. Unfortunately for Banks, WWE and the fans, that didn't happen and The Boss will not be apart of the women's Money in the Bank ladder match.

Not only does this mean that Banks either outright rejected the idea of being apart of the match or that the company didn't offer it up in the first place. Either way, Banks will likely not be showing up at Money in The Bank and could be content on running out the clock on her contract with WWE.

In the end, Banks is one of those superstars that could have brought something special to match and even made fans lose their minds if she ended up winning. Maybe she will involve herself in some capacity in the match, but that just seems like wishful thinking at this point in time. In the meantime, however, the WWE Universe is just going to have to wait and see on this one.
