Predicted WWE Money in the Bank 2026 card features Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Cody Rhodes; event set for Oct. 10 in New Orleans
WWE Money in the Bank 2026 has been moved from its usual mid-year slot to October and is scheduled for October 10, 2026, at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. The projected card includes multiple top names such as Roman Reigns, Paige, CM Punk and Cody Rhodes and would again feature two namesake ladder matches offering a World title cash-in opportunity.
The event’s shift to October replaces its traditional timing, with the promotion set to stage the Premium Live Event in New Orleans rather than mid-year. Like every year, it will feature two namesake ladder matches for the ultimate World title opportunity to cash in. No matches had been announced for the PLE as of August 13 and Khel Now describes the lineup as a predicted match card.
A potential high-nostalgia encounter centers on Paige after Nikki Bella and Brie Bella betrayed her following their loss to Fatal Influence at SummerSlam 2026; with Brie out with an injury, Nikki is set to end the Anti-Diva, making a featured singles match a possible Money in the Bank attraction.
The Bloodline storyline could also produce a singles bout: Solo Sikoa will be forced to return to the Bloodline after losing to Jey Uso on RAW this week, and with his recent ally Royce Keys reportedly trying to bring him back while the Bloodline seeks to finish him off, those circumstances might lead to a showdown between Sikoa and Keys at the PLE.
Randy Orton’s surprise return at SummerSlam 2026 immediately saw him take out Cody Rhodes, reigniting their feud from WrestleMania 42; the piece suggests tensions could culminate in a rematch between the former teacher-student duo at Money in the Bank.
CM Punk, billed as ‘The Second City Saint,’ faces Kevin Owens for the Undisputed WWE Championship on August 21, and the article notes Sami Zayn could interfere to cost KO the title, a sequence that could result in a triple threat title match at Money in the Bank.
LA Knight confronted World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns after SummerSlam 2026 and has been promised insertion into the World Heavyweight title picture; Khel Now’s prediction includes a program that would lead to a Reigns versus LA Knight title bout at the New Orleans PLE.
Money in the Bank is scheduled for October 10, 2026, at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, but no official match announcements had been made as of August 13; the card outlined here is a projection rather than confirmed booking.
