News on This Year's WWE Money in the Bank Winners Getting WrestleMania Title Shots


– WWE’s recent advertising of the upcoming Money in the Bank PPV has caused some confusion with a commercial tagline promising that the winner of these matches would get an automatic title shot at WrestleMania next year. According to a report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, this is actually not the case and that Vince McMahon already has envisioned the main event(s) for WrestleMania and that the Money in the Bank winners don’t figure into that.

-- Ultimately, as is usually the case with WWE, nothing definitive is set in stone and it should be worth noting that WWE played this commercial multiple times so it also seems unlikely that it is an error. For what it’s worth, WWE sources are only stating that like past years, only the Royal Rumble winners are guaranteed to have title matches at WrestleMania.
