Money in the Bank Match Evolution
The Money in the Bank concept originated in March 2005 when Chris Jericho pitched the idea to WWE management. Vince McMahon approved it for WrestleMania 21, where Edge claimed the inaugural briefcase. The match remained a WrestleMania exclusive from 2005 to 2009.
In 2010, WWE spun the concept into its own premium live event held in July at Kansas City’s Sprint Center. The first standalone Money in the Bank PPV featured two matches—one for Raw’s WWE Championship and one for SmackDown’s World Heavyweight Championship.
Women’s Money in the Bank debuted in 2017, initially held exclusively on SmackDown. Beginning in 2022, the winner could challenge for any championship, expanding opportunities beyond traditional world title pursuits.
The 2023 event moved to London, marking the first Money in the Bank held outside the United States. Toronto hosted the inaugural Canadian event in 2024, while the 2025 event returns to the United States at Inglewood’s Intuit Dome.
