Overview
- WWE announced on June 8 that Money in the Bank will take place Saturday, October 10 at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.
- Tickets go on sale with an exclusive presale starting July 9 at 10 a.m. ET and general sale on July 10 at 10 a.m. ET through Ticketmaster, and Priority Pass packages will be offered via On Location.
- The event’s date has been changed twice already this year, first from August 29 to September 6 and now to October 10, creating repeated schedule shifts for the Premium Live Event.
- Coverage offers two competing explanations for the latest move: Fightful reported a broadcast-partner scheduling conflict while Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer said touring routing and production-truck positioning were the drivers.
- Money in the Bank awards a briefcase with a one-year contract for a title match, so the date change affects WWE’s talent pushes and the PLE calendar by placing MITB after Night of Champions and SummerSlam and leaving no PLE slated for September.
