WWE hits Toronto tonight with a stellar Go Home episode of the blue brand ahead of Money in the Bank. The last-minute hype for the upcoming PLE was a thing to watch during the show. The stacked line-up of the men’s ladder match involving Jey Uso, Andrade, Carmelo Hayes, Chad Gable, LA Knight, and Drew McIntyre looks impressive enough to set the hearts of Canadian fans on a race. To add to this zeal, Raw commentator Michael Cole made a unique announcement during the kickoff show tonight.

For those unversed, the ‘Whiteout’ is basically a sports tradition with roots embedded in American football with Penn State and Winnipeg Jets, in particular. WWE incorporating it in their crucial PLE will surely be mesmerizing to watch.
The main event of the spectacular night has also been announced. We are just a few hours away from experiencing one of the big five events on the calendar.

Michael Cole's 'whiteout' request—Genius move or unnecessary distraction at MITB?
Have an interesting take?
With two Money In The Bank Ladder Matches, the event promises a lot of surprising finishes that might engulf the 17,000 fans’ hearts for a long period.
In 2023, Damian Priest got the tag of Mr. Money in the Bank and slyly waited until WrestleMania 40 before cashing in, elevating his rank to the World Heavyweight Champion. On the other hand, the women’s Ladder Match was nailed by Iyo Sky, leading to her successful cash-in at SummerSlam.

As Dave Meltzer suggested in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the World Heavyweight Title match between Priest and Seth Rollins is set to be the cynosure of the 2024 edition of the MITB event. The defeat will fall heavily on both parties. IF Priest loses, he will be ousted from Judgement Day along with the title loss. If Rollins loses, he’ll be unable to challenge for the championship again while Priest is the champion.
