WWE’s upcoming premium live event, Money in the Bank, already had a title match set for the World Heavyweight Championship. Now, the stakes in the Damian Priest vs. Seth Rollins contest have been raised even higher.
During the June 24 WWE RAW episode, Seth Rollins and Damian Priest had an in-ring segment to hype their Money in the Bank match. By the end of the segment, the stakes were significantly increased.
Rollins proposed a side bet or gentlemen’s agreement, without involving RAW General Manager Adam Pierce. Seth stated that if Priest wins the match at Money in the Bank, Rollins would not challenge Priest for the title again. However, there was another side to this bet.
If Damian Priest loses to Seth Rollins at Money in the Bank, he must leave the Judgment Day faction. Priest accepted the conditions, asserting that the Judgment Day needs him more than he needs them.
GUNTHER, who will challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam after winning the King of the Ring tournament, also made his presence known. He declared his intention to win the title at the biggest event of the summer. With these added stakes, the World Heavyweight Championship match has become even more intense. No matter the outcome, the loser will face significant consequences.
Money in the Bank will take place on Saturday, July 6, 2024, at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. You can check out the current card below.
