After more stars qualified for WWE Money in the Bank last night, more qualification matches have been confirmed as well.
In a trio of triple threat matches set to determine who would advance to the ladder match, SmackDown saw three stars advance to the titular match at the upcoming premium live event.
First up in Money in the Bank action, Carmelo Hayes was able to beat Randy Orton and Tama Tonga after a distraction at ringside saw Kevin Owens fighting with the Bloodline.
Hayes was able to capitalize on Orton’s distraction, rolling him up to get the win.
In the second men’s qualifying match, the Bloodline again proved to be an interfering force as more distraction at ringside as Owens took on Grayson Waller and Andrade.
Andrade advanced after pinning Grayson Waller in a match that saw more Bloodline interference as Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa attacked Owens, causing Randy Orton to run out with a chair to chase them off.
Andrade and Carmelo Hayes join Jey Uso from WWE Raw as already confirmed for the ladder match.
A women’s Money in the Bank qualifying match also saw Chelsea Green capitalize after Bianca Belair hit a KOD on Michin, as Green was able to throw Belair out of the way and capture the pinfall victory for herself.
Next week’s SmackDown will see another three-pack of triple threats as Candice LeRae, Jade Cargill and Tiffany Stratton square off. Also announced in women’s Money in the Bank qualifying action, Blair Davenport vs. Indi Hartwell vs. Naomi.
Over on the men’s side of the things, LA Knight is set to go up against both Logan Paul and Santos Escobar in a qualifier after both Logan Paul & Santos Escobar fired shots at Knight on SmackDown.
On Monday’s upcoming WWE Raw, there will also be qualifying matches set to feature Bronson Reed vs. Braun Strowman vs. Chad Gable after it was confirmed that Gable would be medically cleared to compete.
He was previously replaced by Ilja Dragunov in the match after being attacked by the Wyatt Sicks, but Adam Pearce announced that Gable is back in.
Also on the women’s side, Shayna Baszler vs. Kairi Sane vs. Lyra Valkyria will take place to determine who else will advance to the WWE Money in the Bank ladder match.
Sane’s Damage CTRL partner IYO SKY has already won entry into the match, setting the women’s field at two thus far (SKY and Green).
