WWE fans were shocked after Brock Lesnar returned and won the Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match. Brock was not originally supposed to be in the match but ended up walking out with the briefcase.
As noted prior, WWE went to great lengths to keep Brock’s return a secret. It is being reported that only a handful of people backstage knew what was going on.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider reports that even the other competitors in the ladder match did not know what was going on.
According to Johnson, none of the ladder match participants were told that Brock would be appearing. Some people in the match were told throughout the day that Ali would be the one winning the briefcase.
Others were told that there would be a spot where someone comes out and knocks Ali off the ladder at the very end. They weren’t told who it was going to be though.
As you can see, WWE went to great lengths to keep this finish a secret.
