After months of waiting, the women’s WWE Money in the Bank match card is now confirmed.
Last year, Tiffany Stratton won the Women’s Money in the Bank match and earned herself a guaranteed title shot against a champion of her choice. Earlier this year, she cashed in her opportunity against Nia Jax to crown herself the new champion. Now, as the champion, Stratton and Iyo Sky face a legitimate threat from six other women.
Later this week, on 7th June, Rhea Ripley, Roxanne Perez, Naomi, Alexa Bliss, Giulia, and Stephanie Vaquer will compete against each other for a shot at the women’s Money in the Bank contract. While, all the other five women booked themselves a berth in the match in the last few weeks, Stephanie Vaquer won her spot tonight against Liv Morgan and Ivy Nile on the 2nd June episode of Raw.
Giulia and Vaquer are poised to make their highly anticipated Money in the Bank debuts, generating significant fan interest in their contributions to the match.
Hall Of Famer’s Role In Stephanie Vaquer’s WWE Signing
Earlier this year, during an interview with Kevin Felgueras of Rock & Pop FM, Stephanie Vaquer detailed her WWE negotiations and how she had almost lost the deal, before naming Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels’ role in her signing.
“It caught me by surprise, as I was still in talks with WWE. We are going to tell the whole story. What happened is that I was involved in a very important match. After that match, WWE called me on the phone and said, “Are you interested in working with us?” and I said, “Of course I am, what do you propose?”. They asked me afterwards, “Would you like to go to the Main Roster or NXT?” and I said Main Roster first.
There were money deals and I was waiting for the proposal because at that time I was living in Mexico and I had a double contract with NJPW and CMLL and, at that time, I had the most important Women’s World Championship in NJPW and the two most important women’s championships in Mexico, so I had a huge responsibility in me from the biggest companies in their respective countries.
I am a person who likes to do things calmly and think well, not rushed. I was so excited that WWE reached out to me. Someone from the office talked to me, and that was the negotiation. I remember I went back and talked to my company, CMLL, and told them that they called me and offered me to work with them, and my boss thought I was talking about AEW because I said they would talk to me. We just stared at each other and I asked “wait, did AEW talk to you?” and he said, “yes, they talked to me yesterday because they wanted to do business with you.”
