WWE Money in the Bank is around the corner and fans are already excited to witness what could be a spectacular pay-per-view event. A lot will be on the line on the night of May 19, as the WWE Championship, Universal Championship, United States Championship and both the Women's Championships are among the titles that will be on the line.

As the name of the PPV goes, the Money in the Bank contracts will also be up for grabs, as four male and female superstars from Raw will respectively take on four male and female superstars from SmackDown in a ladder match to retrieve the coveted briefcases, in their respective divisions. Anyone who wins the contract is almost guaranteed to one day win a world title in WWE.

Becky 2 Belts will put both her titles on the line, Shane McMahon will take on his tag team partner turned foe in The Miz, Seth Rollins will defend his Big Red Belt against AJ Styles, in what is considered to be a dream match, Kofi Kingston will defend his WWE Championship against Kevin Owens and on this unpredictable night, anything could happen.

Anyone could walk out of the PPV with the WWE Championship or the Universal Championship and either the Raw or SmackDown Women's Champion. With that being said, here are five things that could happen at WWE Money in the Bank 2019.


#5. Charlotte Flair wins the SmackDown Women's Championship

Charlotte Flair became the first women in WWE to become an 8-time Women's Champion. She was also one of the first women to main event WrestleMania, where she lost her SmackDown Women's Championship to Becky Lynch. The two former best friends will rekindle their rivalry at Money in the Bank where The Queen will get another shot at the SmackDown Women's Title.

I believe that Charlotte will defeat Becky and become the 9-time Women's Champion. The writing is pretty much on the wall. I don't think WWE will keep feeding Charlotte to Becky and make her lose against The Man again. This could possibly be their last encounter, and The Queen could walk out with the SmackDown Women's Title while Becky retains the Raw Women's Title. This is WWE we're talking about so anything could happen.

#4. Kofi Kingston retains the WWE Championship

Kofi Kingston is the WWE Champion. Kofi Kingston is the freaking WWE Champion. When you really think about it, it kinda feels surreal. Several years ago, if someone told you that a pancake-throwing Kofi Kingston will win the WWE Championship, that too at WrestleMania, you would have had a pretty good laugh. But it happened, and he will defend his title against none other than Kevin Owens at the Money in the Bank PPV.

I don't think WWE would take the title off Kingston so early, so chances are that he will indeed walk in and walk out with his title and possibly enjoy it for a few more months. Perhaps, he could feud with the returning Big E for WWE's most prestigious prize. If Kofi loses his title at MITB, fans will be very upset and the last thing WWE needs right now is angry fans.

#3. Mandy Rose wins the women's Money in the Bank contract

Mandy Rose is currently the favourite to win the women's Money in the Bank contract. God's Greatest Creation is rumored to earn herself a future Smackdown Women's Championship shot by winning the women's Money in the Bank ladder match. This doesn't come as a big shock, because Rose has been destined for a big push as soon as she made her WWE debut.

Winning the SmackDown Women's Championship is definitely in her horoscope and whether she cashes it in on the same night or not, it's all up to the WWE Creative. Nonetheless, she is definitely a future champion because she is the kind of female superstar that WWE envisions.


#2. Drew McIntyre wins the men's Money in the Bank contract

Drew McIntyre is the other favourite to win the Money in the Bank contract, as The Scottish Psychopath is rumored to win the men's Money in the Bank ladder match on May 19. McIntyre has been misused lately by WWE after suffering plenty of defeats including losing to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 35.

Drew has not been the same again, and if WWE is truly invested in him then they should award him the Money in the Bank contract because just by looking at him, one can see that he has 'Universal Champion' written all over him.

#1. AJ Styles wins the Universal Championship

The Phenomenal AJ Styles is set to face Seth Rollins for the WWE Universal Championship in a match worthy of the main event of WrestleMania, the dream match that fans have been craving for a long time. We will finally get to see it on May 19 and anything could happen on that night.

Even though this is Seth's first PPV title defense, The Beast Slayer is not guaranteed to walk out with the Universal Championship. The Phenomenal One could defeat Rollins and win the Big Red Belt. What are the chances of that happening?

It might be unlikely, but it's not impossible. Vince McMahon changes his mind every day, and 10 minutes into the match, he could decide to have Styles win. Not only will this be unexpected, but it will also leave fans talking, and that's what Vince McMahon cares about.
