These 2026 WWE Money in the Bank results featured Tiffany Stratton and Penta winning their respective briefcases. Each winner earned a title shot they can cash in anywhere, anytime. WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns retained his title. Meanwhile, Liv Morgan defeated Stephanie Vaquer and “The Man” Becky Lynch in a Triple Threat match to win the WWE Women’s World Championship. “The Ruler” Oba Femi also continued his dominance at Saturday’s Premium Live Event at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The match started slowly but remained physical, with extended pauses between bursts of crowd excitement. The muddy pace dragged on for far too long, and neither man pulled off anything overly impressive. Things built to a point where they both had a turn to kick out of the other’s finisher. After the match, 946 (Royce Keys, Bronco Nima, and Lucien Price) tried to intimidate Reigns. The Bloodline’s Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and Solo Sikoa confronted them, sparking a three-on-three brawl. They fought through the arena before 946 was picked up outside by Jaida Parker.
This felt like one of the most rehearsed Money in the Bank matches ever. Even so, several awkward moments made it seem as though the wrestlers had to remember their spots. The standout moment of the match saw Ruca leap from the top rope onto a ladder bridged between the apron and barricade. Legend was laid out across the ladder. Stratton may have botched an earlier Swanton Bomb off the top of a ladder, but she ultimately won the match.
This match was a breath of fresh air to the card. Both giants displayed impressive athleticism and smooth reversals. At that point, they were the night’s most athletic pairing. Reed lost some weight during his time off due to injury, and it showed in his body control. Even his moonsault looks sharper.
The Vision’s Austin Theory and Jake Paul came to Reed’s aid and slid him a pair of brass knuckles. The match appeared over when the punch landed, but Femi shocked the WWE Universe by kicking out. The Ruler picked up the pin after powerbombing his gigantic opponent through the mat.
This match put the card back in its prior, stale position. The match lacked intensity and pace, and even the finish didn’t go as planned. Vaquer knocked Lynch off the top rope onto a table that didn’t break, and Morgan immediately hit an ObLIVion to become the new WWE Women’s World Champion.
This was an intense main event, highlighted with a few key moments. Breakker arguably caused the most punishment in the match, with brutal spears to most of the participants. One of those spears, while a work, believably put Evans in an ambulance after colliding with the barricade. A ladder the height of the briefcase was eventually brought into the match, which also saw the return of The Young OG, who drove the ambulance back to ringside.
The next spot can be viewed in two very different ways. On one hand, Evans flew off the top of that ladder and through the roof of the ambulance. On the other hand, the gimmick was too obvious. The camera didn’t even show the Money in the Bank briefcase, focusing only on the ladder and ambulance. The ambulance roof clearly had new seams beforehand. The sound of the wood cracking also made the spot less convincing. It left one wondering why an ambulance would have a wooden roof in the first place.
Penta hit a Mexican destroyer on Breakker atop a ladder for the finish. He then climbed up another ladder to become the 2026 WWE Money in the Bank winner. Mr. Money in the Bank celebrated atop the enormous ladder, happy as could be, in his Joker-inspired ring gear.
Stratton and Penta left New Orleans with the Money in the Bank briefcases, while Reigns retained the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Morgan also captured the WWE Women’s World Championship, and Femi continued his dominant run against Reed.
