• Money In The Bank Participants Reportedly Didn’t Know Brock Lesnar Was Set To Win
“The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar surprised the fans when he returned at Money In The Bank 2019 PPV and everyone was shocked when he went on to win the Men’s Money In The Bank 2019 ladder match to earn a future World Championship match.
We noted before via Fightful that WWE told their wrestlers that Ali was going to win the Men’s Money In The Bank ladder match, but then told the MITB participants about the real plan just before the match.
According to Slice Wrestling, WWE officials didn’t tell the MITB participants that Brock Lesnar was going to win the match. Instead, WWE officials told them that “someone” was going to come out, push them off the ladder and win the match:
“Vince made sure to tell the wrestlers in the match that there would be a spot at the end where ‘someone’ would be coming out at the end to knock everyone off the ladders and win the briefcase. None of them knew Brock was winning.”
This could explain why guys like Randy Orton looked quite shocked after seeing Lesnar.
