Money in the Bank is shaping up to be quite a good PPV!

With less than 5 days left before Money in the Bank, we witnessed the go-home shows of RAW and SmackDown this week for the PPV from London, England.

A total of 11 matches have been announced for the PPV so far, including the two Money in the Bank ladder matches, one for the men and the other for the women. With a lot of interesting buildups and plot-twists on this week's programming, fans are hyped to witness the show this Sunday and to find out who walks out as Mr. and Ms. Money in the Bank 2019.

If you have been a long-time fan and viewer of WWE, you would know that the go-home shows often give us huge indications of some match outcomes of the following PPV. This was the case with RAW and SmackDown this week, as WWE did secretly give us a lot of hints for the results of the coming Money in the Bank PPV.

In this article, let's take a look at the 5 match outcomes that WWE secretly told us on RAW and SmackDown this week for Money in the Bank. Do let me know your views and opinions about the go-home shows this week in the comments section below.


#5 Becky 2 Belts will stand tall

This week on RAW, we saw a massive double contract signing as The Champ Champ, Becky Lynch, confronted both her opponents this Sunday for her RAW and SmackDown Women's Championship, Lacey Evans and Charlotte, respectively.

WWE did portray Becky as a fearless champion, but it was the two challengers who ended the night on top after teaming up on the Champ and putting her through a table.

While realistically this means Becky bit off more than she could chew, in the world of pro-wrestling, this was a classic set-up for Becky to go against all the odds and retain both her titles at Money in the Bank this Sunday.

It would be really shocking if Becky loses any of her belts so soon and WWE would not do it unless they have something huge planned. According to me, The Man will continue her reign as The RAW and SmackDown Women's Champion.

#4 Roman Reigns will squash Elias

Is there any way Elias can win this match?

The feud between Roman Reigns and Elias looked quite interesting at first as Reigns was not pushed directly into the main event scene after his return. But let's be very honest, this feud has seemed so meaningless as Reigns' focus has been more on Shane McMahon rather than his opponent this Sunday, Elias.

He mentioned on RAW this week that Elias hasn't accomplished anything in WWE so far, which is harsh but true. The fact is, there is no way Elias is winning his match this Sunday and will most probably be squashed by the Big Dog unless Shane interferes somehow, which would lead to the start of a proper feud between Reigns and Shane.


#3 Rey Mysterio might get his revenge with some help from Dominic

The United States Championship's prestige has gone up significantly ever since Samoa Joe won it earlier this year. Currently, he is feuding with the Master of the 619, Rey Mysterio, who will challenge him for the US Title this Sunday.

The build-up to the feud has been quite personal with Rey's son Dominic being heavily involved. With Joe threatening and involving Dominic's name in his promos continuously, all signs are pointing towards Dominic getting involved in his dad's match this Sunday and possibly helping him win the US Championship.

With the rumors of Dominic signing a contract with WWE, could we see a match between the two soon?

#2 Rollins would still be the Universal Champion

The build-up to this dream match has been so disappointing that the fans who were so hyped for it have almost lost all their interest. While there is no doubt that Seth Rollins and AJ Styles will put on a fantastic match at MITB, but WWE did miss a lot of tricks with this dream feud.

On RAW this week, there was no proper interaction between the two, and the story focused on how Styles came out victorious in a match against Rollins 13 years ago. This statement in itself is a hint that Seth would come out of Money in the Bank still the Universal Champion.

It would be a shame if this feud ends with just one match and no proper storyline, and hence I do hope WWE pulls out a surprise at MITB to get everyone's attention back. It's a great opportunity to turn Styles heel and let him reunite The Club after a classic match between the two.

#1 Xavier Woods might turn on Kofi to cost him the WWE Title

The common trend with WWE has been the actual winner not standing tall on the go-home show of a PPV. While there have been exceptions, this trend is usually true.

This week on SmackDown, Kofi Kingston appeared on the Kevin Owens show, only for him to start brawling with KO before Sami Zayn appeared out of nowhere to assist his former best friend. This led to Xavier Woods coming to the aid of Kofi. While Xavier did try his best, Sami and KO took him out before Kofi overcame the two and stood tall to close the show.

Earlier in the night, Kofi told Xavier that he could handle the business alone and asked him to relax. But Xavier did come out to assist him, though he was not of much help. I can't be the only one who can see some tension between Kofi and Xavier, especially with those weird expressions on the former one's face.

Big E recently told in an interview that he might be out for maybe as long as 2021, thus I don't see the New Day staying together for long. A Xavier heel turn in the future is inevitable, but could it happen as soon as this Sunday? And moreover, will it cost Kofi his WWE Title and make Kevin Owens the new WWE Champion?
