WWE will present this year a new edition of Money in the Bank, highlighted by its characteristic ladder fight that grants a briefcase a shot at the title of the bearer’s choice at any time. Over the past few weeks, there have been several qualifying matches to secure a spot in this bout. And on tonight’s edition of Monday Night Raw, Chad Gable managed to qualify for the men’s ladder match.
Gable beat Braun Strowman and Bronson Reed with a moonsault over the latter. During the match, the members of The Judgment Day interfered by attacking Strowman on the entrance ramp, costing him the victory. But while the match had several talking points, one that has caught the attention of social media was unfortunately a botch featuring Braun Strowman and Bronson Reed.

In the climax of the match, Braun Strowman went on to hit his two rivals with the Strowman Express. A move where he runs around the ring and hits his opponents with a shoulder tackle using his brute strength. But it is hard to believe that the force created by his run is so high that he could knock an opponent down without even touching him. Because that’s exactly what happened when he went on to hit Big Bronson Reed. Reed fell without even being touched by the Monster Among Men. And this moment is now the talk of the town on social media, with fans mocking the segment.

However, The Judgment Day appeared on the scene to fight Strowman, and Gable, being the sly heel that he is, took advantage of it to execute a moonsault on Bronson and win the qualifying with a 1, 2, 3. Proving that the nickname he gave himself before the match might be true.

Throughout the end of last week, Chad Gable was one of the major talking points for fans because of the attack he suffered from Wyatt Sick6 during the Raw broadcast.

So through an Instagram story, Chad Gable has given himself a new nickname before his fight with the red brand. Calling himself the ‘Master in the Bank, And now that he has qualified, he is on the way to prove himself as the actual master in the bank. Money in the Bank will take place on July 6 at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Canada. So, do you think Gable would win the briefcase? What did you make of the botch involving Strowman and Reed?
