WWE Raw 5 Predictions: Final Two Women’s Money In The Bank Spots

5. Natalya Qualifies For MITB

I also think Natalya will qualify for the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, rounding out the field of four with Ruby Riott, Ember Moon, and Alexa Bliss. It’s bold to leave both Sasha Banks and Bayley out of it, but I can’t see one of them being in the match without the other. I also think it would be poetic for both of them to miss out on a shot at the briefcase.

Although many fans find Natalya boring, a lot of those feelings dissipate when she’s being a bad-ass in a ladder match. She shined in last year’s women’s ladder matches, and she’s always been at her best in violent stipulations. Nattie is one of the strongest wrestlers on the roster, and she’s also one of the safest. Who wouldn’t want to see her in a ladder match, especially given how creative she’s been in the ring lately? Her post title-feud matches with Charlotte this year on SmackDown Live were among the most underrated television matches I’ve watched this year.

While Natalya has next to zero chance of actually winning the briefcase, I’d like to see her in the match to keep things ticking. That will be especially important with either Billie Kay or Lana guaranteed to be in the match from SmackDown, as neither wrestler is experienced in WWE ladder matches.
