WWE Money in the Bank comes to New Orleans for first time

Backstage reports name Penta and Bron Breakker as the leading men’s contenders, while Roxanne Perez and Lash Legend top the women’s side.

  • On Saturday, October 10, 2026, WWE hosts Money in the Bank at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, with Roman Reigns defending the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight as the planned main event.
  • More than 11,000 tickets have been distributed for the event, with 11,406 of 12,863 available seats moved, surpassing the 9,837 tickets sold for a 2025 SmackDown featuring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson at the same venue.
  • Earlier this week, betting odds named Bron Breakker and Penta as favorites for the men's ladder match, while Roxanne Perez and Lash Legend lead the women's field amid a mix of established stars and emerging talent.
  • The card also includes Stephanie Vaquer defending the WWE Women's World Championship against Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan, while Oba Femi faces Bronson Reed in a one-on-one contest.
  • For both performers, this weekend marks historic significance: Reigns' first Money in the Bank premium live event main event since 2023, and Knight's first singles premium live event main event since WWE Crown Jewel 2023.
