Seth “Freakin” Rollins records another successful defense of his WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Money in the Bank.
In the closing minutes of the match, Men’s Money in the Bank winner Damian Priest came out to ringside to survey the situation. When Finn Balor was preparing to hit Coup De Grace, Priest stood up from his chair which created enough of a distraction for him to miss the move and Rollins hit the curb stomp on Balor to get the win. Balor and Priest argued at ringside following the match.
