2014 WWE Money in the Bank Results Coverage


The 2014 WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view arrives on Sunday night from TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. There’s several intriguing matches on the card for the event, including two ladder matches. One will feature the coveted Money in the Bank briefcase hanging high above the ring, which one superstar will claim and hold onto for a chance at the championship belts at a place and time of their choice. In the other ladder match, it’s the World Heavyweight Championship belts hanging above the ring. One of the eight competitors will be first to retrieve the belts and will succeed Daniel Bryan as the new champion!

An MITB Kickoff show will start off the night at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. There are no special matches advertised for the show at this time, but Daniel Bryan is scheduled to appear to discuss having to surrender his championship belts after surgery. This special pre-show will also have a panel of WWE personalities talking about all the matches ahead on the pay-per-view.

The pay-per-view itself starts at 8 p.m. EST, including the two ladder matches, Paige defending the WWE Divas Championship and The Usos defending their WWE tag team championship belts. In a match involving no titles whatsoever, the team of Goldust and Stardust take on Ryback and Curtis Axel, with the winning team possibly being able to get a tag title shot in the future!

2014 Money in the Bank Kickoff Show:

The MITB pre-show was hosted by Renee Young filling in for Josh Matthews, along with regulars Booker T and Alex Riley, plus special guest Christian. A Booker T chant was pulsing through the arena as the show began. They discussed the MITB title ladder match and ran a video package highlighting the eight competitors one-by-one.

Just over halfway into the pre-show, Daniel Bryan was introduced and the crowd kept up with “Yes” chants. Bryan tried to quiet them down, then just decided to lead a chant with them. Michael Cole interviewed him in the ring about his time table on his recovery. Bryan said he had some bad news that he doesn’t know when he’ll be back yet, and he might need another surgery. He said “I promise I will be back and when I am, I’ll be better than ever.” Daniel Bryan listed Cena, Randy Orton and Roman Reigns as his three possible winners tonight.

Bryan kept answering questions Cole asked from Twitter users, but Bo Dallas’ music hit and he came out to interrupt. Dallas said he realized Bryan can’t compete tonight and it “has to be a pain in the neck.” He told him he “can still climb the ladder of life to make it back to the top,” but all he has to do is “Bo-Lieve.” Bryan then told him he speaks for everyone when he says “Bo, Leave.” Bo smirked about it but backed out of the ring and up the ramp as Bryan’s music hit and he led a “Yes” chant.

As Renee Young signed off ahead of the PPV, the Wyatt's sounder went off and Harper and Rowan appeared on the screen. They delivered a promo to the Usos, "Your time is up, tick tock, tick tock.." The sheep mask was shown on camera, "Run."
