WWE Sets Final Money in the Bank Qualifiers for Next Week’s SmackDown

The final qualifying matches for both Money in the Bank ladder matches are set after the September 25, 2026 episode of SmackDown. Next Friday, Tatum Paxley, Tiffany Stratton and Candice LeRae will fight for the last women’s spot, while Kevin Owens, Cody Rhodes and Johnny Gargano will battle for the final men’s place.

The six-person ladder matches are scheduled for Money in the Bank on October 10 in New Orleans, where Roman Reigns is also set to defend the World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight.

Four competitors have already qualified for each ladder match. Bron Breakker, Je’Von Evans, Trick Williams and Penta hold the men’s spots, while Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Jacy Jayne and Roxanne Perez have qualified on the women’s side. Trick and Jayne advanced on SmackDown, then Penta and Perez punched their tickets on RAW.

That leaves the six newly announced contenders with one last chance to join the field. Owens, Rhodes and Gargano all have championship history, while Paxley, Stratton and LeRae will be fighting to earn their first spot in this year’s women’s ladder match.
