The Money In The Bank Main Event was a surprising and entertaining show, with new and unique occurrences in the WWE Headquarters. WWE was forced to create a new and unique way to conduct the main event, and take advantage of the fans’ absence from the matches.
The ladder match saw 6 men and 6 female wrestlers battle it out from the bottom of the building to the very top. Throughout the wrestlers’ ascent, there were more than a few notable cameos.

Brother Love, another popular WWE figure had an appearance who shared a moment with Rey Mysterio before Rey sped off to the roof.
Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar’s lawyer was spotted trying to enjoy a meal when the area was suddenly filled with a dozen angry wrestlers. Heyman was smashed in the face with a pie, devolving the entire room into utter food fueled chaos.

AJ Styles stumbled upon a room, with blue lights and a casket. Styles immediately flashed back to his terrifying Boneyard Match with The Undertaker. Distressed by the thoughts of the match, Styles tried to escape from the room.
However, Aleister Black then emerged from the hallway, locking Styles in the room. The Undertaker was nowhere in the building, but his presence was definitely felt.

Styles and Bryan stood awkwardly as they tried to justify their unwanted presence in the boss’s office. McMahon, visibly agitated by the antics, yelled at the stars to get out, which they promptly proceeded to do.
Styles then decided to politely clean up behind himself and awkwardly started setting the chairs back in place, so as to not annoy the man who had his future in his palms.
