He also revealed that the rules will be the same as the men. The winner will earn themselves a guaranteed shot at the Smackdown Women’s Title, whenever they want.
2) Many Fans Were Glad It Wasn’t Pink
There was a concern among wrestling fans that WWE was going to make the Women’s Money in the Bank briefcase pink.
Thankfully this didn’t happen to the relief of many:
That’s an awesome #MITB briefcase. So glad it’s not a flowery pink one. #womenswrestling #SDLive

Thank you @WWE for not making the women’s #MitB briefcase pink.
It’s the smallest things that break the biggest boundaries. #SDLive— Mike (@DGNR8Esq) June 7, 2017
I wouldn’t have been TOO pissed if the briefcase was pink, but thank god it’s not #SDLive
