Damian Priest becomes Mr. Money in the Bank
(1) Men’s Money in the Bank Match:
Damian Priest def. Logan Paul, Ricochet, Shinsuke Nakamura, LA Knight, Santos Escobar, Butch
Butch received a positive reception at home. The Brits sang along with Shinsuke Nakamura. Santos Esocbar came with Latin American war paint (and less vocal reactions).
Damian Priest came with a new cloak. Ricochet was confident. LA Knight received chants as soon as he moved in. And Logan Paul got the expected boos.

After the opening video and the entrances, 12 minutes had already passed when the first match at “Money in the Bank” could finally start.
Logan Paul became the first man in the match to set up a ladder in the ring. But he didn’t get far. In general, as expected, there was a lot of action with chances for everyone involved in the first few minutes.
When Paul was able to climb a few rungs on the ladder, all of the competitors were suddenly there and took care of the YouTuber, who was not so popular in London.
Butch, who found not only a table under the ring, but also a cricket bat, received encouragement.
Priest and Paul soon set up two tables outside the ring. But Damian immediately let Logan understand that he didn’t want anything to do with him and promptly knocked him down. Priest later received a massive uppercut as he jumped the ropes and collided with Priest.
By this point, Ricochet had already made a crazy jump – through a ladder and out of the ring onto the competition.

Paul hit a Frog Splash from the ring rim onto Priest, who was on a ladder construction. The impact looked hard for both because the ladder didn’t give way.
Equally spectacular was a Springboard 450 splash by Ricochet, which landed on Escobar and Butch (on a ladder construct in the ring).
Suddenly all participants were back in the ring and the match experienced a new start.
The argument moved outside the ring, where Butch climbed a tall ladder and moonsaulted his opponents.
Logan Paul and Ricochet reunited in the ring, both having caused a spectacular collision at the Royal Rumble.
There were soon two leaders in the ring: LA Knight and Santos Escobar both wanted to ditch the suitcase. Santos took LA to the floor with a hurracanrana.
Soon Shinsuke, Ricochet, Logan and Escobar were fighting up the two ladders. A ladder containing Santos and Escobar fell over. Ricochet and Paul tried to get to the trunk, but Knight knocked over the ladder.
Ricochet and Paul landed on the ring ropes. From there Ricochet brought an unsuccessful Spanish Fly. Both men crashed out through the tables set up there, Paul face first.
Here the scene:

LA Knight fought its way against the remaining competition and already got a hand on the suitcase.
Suddenly Damian Priest was there, throwing Knight off the ladder onto the floor with a Broken Arrow.
Nothing could stop Damian Priest now. He got his hands on the suitcase and used it to win Money in the Bank 2023!

Shayna Baszler turns against Ronda Rousey!
(2) WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Match:
Raquel Rodriguez & Liv Morgan esp. Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler; Morgan pinned Rousey with the Oblivion for a title change
Liv Morgan, in her first WWE TV match since May, came out wearing a very British outfit. A costume like Geri Halliwell from the Spice Girls had worn over 20 years ago. At least commentator Wade Barrett made the comparison.

Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez had lost the titles due to an injury (to Liv) and never lost in the ring themselves.
Shayna Baszler showed no mercy and went straight for Liv Morgan’s newly healed shoulder. The tag team champions were now working together effectively against the challenger, who was in dire need of a switch with Raquel.
When the change worked, Raquel gave it a lot of gas. She fought her way onto the ring ropes with Ronda. There, Rousey applied an armbar, but Rodriguez simply powerbombed Ronda into the ring. So the grip was released.
With Liv back in the ring as the official competitor, Shayna and Ronda simultaneously applied submission holds on her. Rodriguez threw himself in between to save her partner.
A short time later, Liv got into Shayna’s Kirifuda Clutch. Morgan fought the ring and actually managed to break free from the hold.
Baszler was pushed into her ring corner, the change came with Ronda.
Rousey wanted to start against Morgan now. But suddenly there was Shayna attacking her own tag team partner! Baszler took out Rousey with a Kirifuda clutch and then exited the ring.

Liv and Raquel reclaimed the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles.
Shayna’s turn against Ronda came as a surprise, to put it mildly, at this point.
