During a recent WWE SmackDown episode, all participants in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match competed in a tag team bout. The teams featured Alexa Bliss, Rhea Ripley, and Stephanie Vaquer against Giulia, Roxanne Perez, and Naomi. Rhea Ripley secured the victory, pinning Roxanne Perez with a Riptide.
Matthew Rehwoldt, formerly known as Aiden English in WWE, offered an unexpected choice for the Money in the Bank winner. Speaking on the REBOOKED Wrestling Podcast, Rehwoldt selected Stephanie Vaquer over other contenders. He articulated his rationale, stating, “I’m going with Stephanie Vaquer…I feel, like, I feel the wave with Vaquer, just the way she’s been booked and everything. It’s a little bit of a gut thing.”
Vaquer recently made her official main roster debut, participating in a Money in the Bank qualifying match against Liv Morgan and Ivy Nile. Ahead of the Money in the Bank Ladder Match, she is slated to compete in an additional tag team match. Stephanie Vaquer will team with Lola Vice at Worlds Collide to face Chik Tormenta and Dalys.
Ripley, despite this being her first Money in the Bank Ladder Match, is widely considered a strong contender and demonstrated her dominance in the tag team match’s closing moments.
