Shane McMahon welcomes us to Smackdown Live, and is joined by all five women competing in the first ever women’s Money in the Bank match at this month’s pay-per-view. He introduces all five of them individually, before revealing a brand new white MITB briefcase that will hang above the ring. James Ellsworth cuts off Shane and tells him to stop “mansplaining” to all the women how this match works. Carmella tries to speak but is cut off by the Queen. They all go around in circles talking about why they’re all going to win; Natalya says Charlotte is ripping off her dad, Becky Lynch says Natalya is ripping off her uncle Brett – pretty much business as usual. Tamina Snuka tells them all they talk too much, and she’s going to enjoy shutting them up by winning.
Smackdown Women’s Champion Naomi cuts them all off and gets her full entrance. She talks about how big of an opportunity this is for all of them, and wishes she could participate in the first ever women’s MITB ladder match because it’s going to be “lit”. But wait… The Ravishing Russian is here! Lana makes her way to the ring in a bright blue sequence dress, looking ridiculously good, and the crowd greats her with a loud “Lana” chant. Shane McMahon says Smackdown is the land of opportunity, but he’s just not feeling this yet. Lana tells him if it works for her, she can make it work for him, and Naomi starts laughing hysterically. She tells Lana she’s never beaten anyone, and hasn’t even had a singles match yet. Shane tells her she needs to earn her spot, and the Ravishing one storms off in a fit as the crowd boos and chants “we want Lana!”
