WWE Pushes Back Date of Money in the Bank

WWE has traditionally held their Money in the Bank PLE during the build to SummerSlam. Since the event first took place in 2010, MITB has taken place most often in July, with May & June hosting MITB events as well.

WWE changed that strategy this year, at first MITB was scheduled for September, meaning it would take place after SummerSlam instead of before. Now, WWE has moved the event a month later, to October 10. The event is still scheduled to be held at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana.

WWE released the following statement on the Money in the Bank date change:

June 8, 2026 – WWE, in conjunction with the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation and Legends Global, today announced that Money in the Bank will now take place Saturday, October 10 — one month later than originally announced — at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.

Money in the Bank features WWE’s biggest Superstars as they battle to earn a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match at a time and place of their choosing anytime within the next year.
