Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.
With 248,908 views on Sunday, 11 October 2026 our article of the day is Money in the Bank (2026).
The 2026 Money in the Bank, also promoted as Money in the Bank: New Orleans, was a professional wrestling premium live event (PLE) produced by WWE. It was held for wrestlers from the promotion's main roster brands, Raw and SmackDown. It was the 17th annual Money in the Bank event and took place on Saturday, October 10, 2026, at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The event is based around the Money in the Bank ladder match in which multiple wrestlers compete to retrieve a briefcase hanging above the ring that contains a contract that guarantees a world championship match of the winner's choosing at any time within the next year. The men's match was won by Raw's Penta, while the women's match was won by SmackDown's Tiffany Stratton.
Three other matches were contested at the event. Liv Morgan defeated defending champion Stephanie Vaquer and Becky Lynch in a triple threat match to win Raw's Women's World Championship, Oba Femi defeated Bronson Reed, and in the opening bout, Roman Reigns defeated LA Knight to retain Raw's World Heavyweight Championship.
This was the first Money in the Bank to be held in October, making it the latest scheduled Money in the Bank in a calendar year, and the first one to be held after SummerSlam, as the event is generally scheduled sometime between WrestleMania and SummerSlam. This was also the first Money in the Bank to air on the ESPN streaming service in United States.
Critics gave the event mostly positive grades, but drew criticism from fans towards the opening match, the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match, and the Women’s World Championship match mainly due to the finishes of each.
