8 scenarios for each female WWE Superstar to win at Money In The Bank

The women have been making a lot of history over the past couple of years, and last year at Money In The Bank was no exception. For the very first time, the women had their own ladder match for a chance at their own Money In The Bank briefcase containing a contract good for 365 days to cash in for a title opportunity.

Thanks to the help of James Ellsworth, Carmella was the first Money In The Bank winner. On April 10th, she would finally cash it in on Charlotte Flair after The IIconics attacked.

Combining the men with the women, there have been a total of 19 winners of the briefcase, with 16 successfully cashing in to become a WWE champion. That is good for an 84% success rate, making it one of the best opportunities that a WWE Superstar has to become a world champion.

Last year, only five women competed in the ladder match, but this year a total of eight women (four from Monday Night Raw and four from SmackDown Live) will compete. This article is going to take a look at scenarios that will show how each of these eight women could be the winner of the ladder match come Sunday.

The women are not ranked in any particular order, they will be listed in alphabetical order. Let's start things off with The Boss...

#1 Sasha Banks

Sasha's namesake is within Money In The Bank, will it help propel her to the briefcase?

A lot of people are predicting that "The Boss" Sasha Banks will be the one to climb the ladder and retrieve the briefcase. Part of that reason is her success in the women's division as a four-time WWE Raw Women's Champion.

The problem with each of those title reigns is she has never successfully had a title defense. She wants to climb that ladder and pull down that briefcase to become champion once more and erase that stigma from her record.

One thing is for sure, the Money In The Bank Briefcase would make for a nice accessory for The Boss.

#2 Alexa Bliss

Can the shortest woman in the field in Alexa Bliss climb the ladder to success?

Next up is another four-time women's champion, Alexa Bliss. She's held the WWE Raw and SmackDown Women's Champion each on two occasions.

Bliss has accomplished a lot in less than two years, and adding Miss Money In The Bank to the resume makes complete sense.

There is a lot of motivation for Bliss to win this match, especially if her former best friend, Nia Jax, is still the WWE Raw Women's Champion. It gives her an opportunity to screw Jax over one more time by taking the title off of her.

#3 Charlotte Flair

Will The Queen make the most of her first Money In The Bank chance?

"The Queen" Charlotte Flair didn't get a chance to compete in the Money In The Bank Ladder Match last year since it only involved women from SmackDown Live. Now that she has a chance to compete in this historic event for her division, she has to be considered to be a favorite thanks to her athletic ability alone.

She can use that athletic ability to climb the ladder and get the briefcase, but she'll also be able to use a little DNA from her father "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, the dirtiest player in the game, to be as ruthless as she needs to be to get to that point.

Just like the two women before her on this list, Charlotte has been very successful and adding Money In The Bank winner just will increase her legacy in the WWE.

#4 Lana

Will Aiden English sing it's Lana Daaaaaaaaaaay on Sunday?

In terms of professional wrestling experience, Lana is the least experienced of the group. She got her start in professional wrestling just a couple of years ago in April of 2016.

If you have been watching SmackDown Live over the past month, you can see that Lana has tremendously improved in the ring.

While it's great to see her in this ladder match, it is a stretch to think she'll be the one pulling down the briefcase, but she has one thing on her side. RUSEV DAY!

Over the past several months, Rusev Day has been quite the phenomenon within the WWE Universe. Originally just Rusev and Aiden English, they smartly added Lana to the fold.

The intrigue of a Mr. and Mrs. Money In The Bank is truly awesome, and the only way Lana is going to come away with the briefcase.

#5 Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch was the first woman drafted to SmackDown Live on the brand split and she was the first ever WWE SmackDown Women's Champion; however, she captured that title in September of 2016 and has yet to hold it since.

She made it clear on this week's edition of SmackDown Live that Lynch is tired of talking about being the first, she wants to be the next. That puts her as one of the top favorites to pull down the briefcase, in my opinion.

Lynch is definitely long overdue for another run with the title, and her holding the briefcase would definitely be entertaining, especially if Asuka is the champion.

#6 Ember Moon

Ember Moon could be the surprise of Money In The Bank...

In terms of being on the WWE main roster, Ember Moon is the newest of the eight women in the field, but she has 11 years of professional wrestling experience and has already set the WWE Universe on fire the short time she's been on Monday Night Raw.

On my Lost In The Midcard podcast, I went out on a limb and predicted that Ember would be the one to shock the WWE Universe and come down with the briefcase.

I feel like she has impressed management enough to put that trust into her. If you remember, the original concept of Money In The Bank was to push a talent into the main event spotlight for the first time. While that doesn't happen with every briefcase today, it still does happen and could with Ember.

#7 Naomi

It's been quite the year-plus for Naomi in the WWE. She became a two-time WWE SmackDown Women's Champion at WrestleMania in her hometown of Orlando in 2017, and she became the winner of the inaugural SmackDown Women's Battle Royal at WrestleMania this year.

Just like Charlotte, Naomi is the most athletically gifted women in this eight-woman ladder match; which has to give her an advantage. She was the champion at this time last year, so this will be her first Money In The Bank Ladder Match, but she's proven she can adapt to any situation.

The fact that Naomi has come up big in major moments over the past 15 months definitely makes her a favorite to come down with the briefcase here on Sunday.

#8 Natalya

Can Natalya overcome a knee injury to climb the ladder and retrieve the briefcase?

Natalya is the most intriguing entry into the Money In The Bank Ladder Match this year because of the theories and predictions surrounding her. There "was" a strong belief that Natalya was going to win this match and cash in that same night.

As you know, there is a strong friendship between Natalya and Ronda Rousey. Many expected that once Natalya pulled down the briefcase, she'd show up to celebrate if Rousey defeated Nia Jax.

This would be a perfect situation to turn on her friend, clock her with the briefcase, and cash in the contract.

Notice I put the word "was" in quotes in the first paragraph. After the announcement of Ronda Rousey going into the UFC Hall of Fame this week, I think those plans have changed.
