Rating The Chances Of Each Competitor For The MITB Qualifying Gauntlet Match

<p>
It's a second chance for these seven competitors

Seven women on the WWE RAW roster who failed to qualify for the Money In The Bank ladder match have another opportunity at qualifying and claiming the last spot of the match.

Sportskeeda is the one-stop destination for latest WWE rumors and wrestling news.

So far, seven women have qualified. On SmackDown Live, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Naomi and Lana have qualified, while on RAW, Ember Moon, Natalya and Alexa Bliss have qualified. This leaves one spot open on the red brand, and the women's division will fight it out to qualify for the opportunity of a lifetime. Here, we rate each competitor's chance of winning the gauntlet match and going on to Money In The Bank.


#7 - Bayley - 5/10

Can Bayley regain lost momentum?

It's sad to see someone as talented as Bayley fall so hard but it seems like there just isn't much of a place for her on the RAW Women's division. Ever since she lost the RAW Women's Championship to Alexa Bliss in 2017, it's pretty much been downhill for her.

Her role in the match will likely be a short one, with her being one of the first few entrants. It doesn't look like she's going to Chicago for MITB.

#6 - Liv Morgan - 3/10

Morgan has shown considerable improvement since her move to RAW

Liv Morgan has definitely improved a lot more in the first seven months on the main roster than seemingly her entire career in NXT. The move to RAW has definitely helped and she's come leaps and bounds compared to before.

However, she's among the least likely candidates to qualify for Money In The Bank. She'll likely arrive somewhere in the middle of the match and go out after a short period of time as well

#5 Sarah Logan - 3/10

Can the
Riott
Squad member make a statement?

The same could be said for Sarah Logan as Liv Morgan. Logan did next to nothing on NXT and was called up to the main roster fairly quickly. Perhaps due to her experience in the ring, the Performance Center coaches felt that she just needed to compete in dark matches and the live event circuit to fast-track her.

She's seen a good amount of improvement, and while she may not actually win the match, she could have a good role to play in foiling one of the babyfaces, i.e, Sasha Banks or Bayley.

#4 Mickie James - 2.5/10

Mickie James could take one step closer to reliving past glory

Mickie James has assumed the veteran role for the past one and a half years in the company. While her role has primarily been to put over younger talent, don't be surprised to see the former women's champion have a strong showing in the match.

It's essentially one of two things. She either has a good, long showing where she goes past 2-3 competitors, or she gets eliminated in fairly quick manner. While the former scenario would be ideal, it's quite likely we end up seeing the latter.

#3 Dana Brooke - 0/10

E
Dana Brooke is undoubtedly the biggest underdog in the match

Dana Brooke is doing her own things with Titus Worldwide and hasn't been as active in in-ring competition. As we all probably know, her role in the match will be to take a fast pinfall. She might be the second entrant or a mid-way entrant who will last in the match not more than two minutes.

At most, they might extend her appearance by a few more minutes just as a cool-down for the crowd. But we all know she's not going to Money In The Bank, and neither should she.

#2 Ruby Riott - 7/10

Ruby Riott's standout personality and in-ring skills can take her far

Ruby Riott is the perfect definition of an underrated Superstar on the roster. Not many have noticed it but she's had some very good matches under her belt in the short time that she's been on the main roster. The first example that comes to mind was her Fastlane match against Charlotte Flair, where the two competitors put on one of the best matches of the night.

Ruby is the perfect candidate to be the iron-woman competitor, lasting from the beginning to almost the end. Last year, Nia Jax was involved in a Gauntlet match where she lasted about an hour, starting off the match but ultimately losing at the end.

Ruby would definitely be the right person to win the match and go on to MITB. The match is dominated by babyfaces such as Ember Moon, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Naomi and Natalya, while the only heels are Alexa Bliss and Lana(who was more of a face in her last SmackDown Live appearance).

Not only that, but Ruby would look good holding the briefcase as well! She's definitely the second most likely candidate to win the whole match.

#1 Sasha Banks - 7.5/10

Ent
There's no denying the star power

Sasha Banks won the last women's gauntlet match and there's a high chance she'll win this match as well. Don't be surprised if The Boss is the iron-woman of the match. Not many can pull it off the way she does.

Sasha's potential addition to the MITB ladder match would definitely be to make it more star-studded. What better way to do so than having a 4-time women's champion involved. The briefcase would definitely look good on her too! Though from the look of things, The Queen Of Harts Natalya might be a favourite to win the whole match.
