Despite the difficult situations arising from the outbreak of Coronavirus, WWE are striving hard to deliver a good product to keep their fans entertained. The promotion is now gearing up for their upcoming pay-per-view – Money in the Bank 2020. This edition of the infamous WWE event will feature a unique stipulation.
Six WWE Superstars from the men’s and women’s division each will battle it out inside the WWE Headquarters. Their goal will be to reach the top of the building where the entire set up for the Money in the Bank match, including the ring, ladder, and the briefcases will be present at the rooftop.
It is highly unlikely that the winners will cash-in their Money in the Bank contract on the same day owing to the logistics.
As for the rest of the Money in the Bank match card, only four WWE titles will be on the line at the PPV. The titles that won’t be defended include RAW Women’s Championship, United States Championship, Intercontinental Championship, and the Women’s Tag Team Championships.
In this article, we will take a look at two WWE titles that can change hands at Money in the Bank 2020 and two that probably won’t. So, without further ado, let’s begin.
#4 Title that can change hands at Money in the Bank: SmackDown Tag Team Championships
The entire sage surrounding the SmackDown Tag Team Championships has been riddled with incredible moments. From unique stipulations during the title bouts to an unexpected debut, the ongoing storyline has seen a lot of events transpire over the last couple of months. At Money in the Bank PPV, The New Day will look to defend their titles against Lucha House Party, The Forgotten Sons, and the team of Miz and John Morrison.
Kofi Kingston and Big E won the SmackDown Tag Team Championship after WrestleMania 36. But that match only featured one member from the two other tag teams involved in the match. Hence, they believe that they never had a fair chance to defend their gold and will look to make the best use of their opportunity at hand by taking back their championships at Money in the Bank.
However, it is interesting to note that this time, the Lucha House Party are also posing a serious threat to New Day’s championship reign. And WWE could also pick them as their new winners in order to let the team explore its potential on SmackDown in the coming weeks.
The debuting team of Forgotten Sons have been booked as the most brutal duo in this entire feud. A win for them might be a little optimistic, but WWE can still have them win the championships to let them make a statement. This will undoubtedly account for a great match to kickstart the main show of Money in the Bank this Sunday.
The SmackDown Tag Team title picture is really interesting and delivers almost every week. However, keeping the titles wrapped around Kingston and Big E for took long might cause the division to grow stale. Until WWE finds a compelling feud from this mix, the titles are expected to change hands quite often, and the same could happen at the upcoming Money in the Bank PPV.

#3 Title that won’t change hands at Money in the Bank: SmackDown Women’s Championship
This title would have been in the opposite criteria if Sasha Banks was competing in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder match. Unfortunately, Lacey Evans defeated Banks for a spot in the important match. On the other hand, the SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley is set to defend her title against Tamina.
It is fairly easy to predict that Bayley will retain her title against Tamina. The latter returned to in-ring action earlier this year and has evidently improved inside the squared circle. Despite the fact that Tamina has been portrayed in a strong light for the last few weeks, it is still too early for her to win the title in the match against the Champion at Money in the Bank.
Considering the fact that WWE have been constantly hinting at the budding feud between best friends Banks and Bayley, it is highly unlikely that the SmackDown Women’s Championship will fall victim to a successful Money in the Bank cash-in.
However, we still don’t know if Banks will be by the side of her friend at the upcoming PPV which can lead up to quite a few interesting, albeit small, incidents indicating towards the growing rivalry between the two Superstars.

#2 Title that can change hands at Money in the Bank: Universal Championship
The WWE Universal Championship match between Braun Strowman and ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt is arguably the toughest battle on the Money in the Bank match card when it comes to predicting the result. Both these Superstars are brilliant inside the ring and have a great deal of momentum heading into the upcoming PPV.
The ‘Monster Among Men’ got the title opportunity only after Roman Reigns backed out from WrestleMania 36. But things turned out pretty well for him as he finally got his hands on the gold that he has deserved for so long.
Strowman found his championship reign being challenged by Bray Wyatt and their rivalry has the entire WWE Universe excited. However, I will still point that WWE should have waited for a couple of months before booking both these Superstars in a title match.
Bray Wyatt lost the Universal Championship to Goldberg earlier this year which arguably affected his credibility. At Money in the Bank, WWE can have him win back his title and wait for Reigns to return so that they can start the feud that they had initially planned. As a result, Strowman’s title reign will probably end on Sunday, which is entirely unjustified.
A Superstar like Strowman deserves a better championship reign, especially when he spends most of the time on the side-lines. Unfortunately, he could be left with nothing at Money in the Bank. The WWE Creatives will still have an opportunity to capitalise on the long history shared between both these Superstars by booking a lengthy title feud. Hopefully, the 'Monster Among Men' will not be reduced as a transitional champion amidst this chaos.

#1 Title that won’t change hands at Money in the Bank: WWE Championship
Drew McIntyre defeated Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship, and he is now set to defend his title against Seth Rollins at Money in the Bank. The Monday Night Messiah believes that the WWE desperately needs a leader like him to help them through such a difficult time. But McIntyre definitely seems confident about the fact that he deserves to be the champion and will take this opportunity to convince Rollins of the same.
After winning the WWE Championship, the ‘Scottish Psychopath’ promised that he would be a fighting champion and he has been living up to his words. His rise to the top and feud with the ‘Beast Incarnate’ was epic, and it would be too soon for him to drop his title at Money in the Bank. Moreover, WWE would want to see McIntyre celebrating his title reign when the fans eventually return to WWE shows.
Having said that, defeating Rollins won’t be a cakewalk for McIntyre. There’s a high chance that Rollins’ disciple and trusted ally, Buddy Murphy, will be lurking around the squared circle. However, McIntyre is still expected to beat the odds and walk out of the WWE Performance Centre with his title intact after his match against Rollins at Money in the Bank.
