WWE Money in the Bank has officially been rescheduled for 2026, moving from its originally announced date of Sunday, September 6 to Saturday, October 10. The September date will now be occupied by Saturday Night's Main Event, which, despite its name, is scheduled to air on Sunday, September 6.
With the date now finalized, anticipation is beginning to build for one of WWE's most influential premium live events. While the full card has yet to be announced, two matches are already confirmed: the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match and the Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

Why Money in the Bank Matters
Few stipulations in WWE history have altered careers like the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
The concept debuted at WrestleMania 21 in 2005, where Edge outlasted five other superstars to capture the first-ever Money in the Bank briefcase. He famously cashed it in months later to defeat John Cena for the WWE Championship, cementing himself as a main-event star and beginning a Hall of Fame career.
Since then, the briefcase has become synonymous with opportunity.
The winner earns a championship contract that can be cashed in at virtually any time within the following year, creating constant uncertainty around every world title reign. Whether it's an opportunistic cash-in after a grueling title defense or a pre-announced championship match, Money in the Bank has repeatedly produced some of WWE's most memorable moments.
For rising stars, winning the briefcase can be career-defining. For established veterans, it's another chance to reclaim championship gold. That unpredictability is what continues to make Money in the Bank one of WWE's most anticipated events every year.
