We all remember what has happened … Read more

The field is finally set as we have our sixth and final participant in this year’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Carmella defeats Mandy Rose with a lot of help from Sonya Deville. This means that the first Ms. Money in the Bank has a chance to become the first two-time (or three-time according to Mella) briefcase winner.

After a kick to the face to Rose from Carmella, she was able to pick up the pin. Midway through the match, Deville’s music hits and she takes to the mic for the remainder of the match taunting her former Fire & Desire teammate.
At this time last year, @SonyaDevilleWWE surrendered her #MITB spot to @WWE_MandyRose … and she doesn't want her former best friend to forget it. #SmackDownpic.twitter.com/kRERSyLOdA
Deville takes a trip down memory lane as she recalls last year’s MITB event where she gave up her spot in the ladder match so that Rose could participate. She then helped her during the match by hoisting her up the ladder to grab the title shot and Rose still ended up losing.
Rose does what she can in order to concentrate on the task at hand and not let Deville in her head. She even is able to get a near fall and hits a massive right to Carmella. Instead of covering Carmella, Rose is completely distracted at this point by Deville who tells her to “karma is a bitch, bitch…bring it on.” Mella is then able to hit that kick and pick up the win.
After the match, Deville becomes unhinged and attacks Rose. She starts with several forearms and then follows it up outside of the ring. She runs Rose into the ring post and then into the steel steps. She follows it up with a knee to Rose that drives her back into the steps. The officials come out to separate her from Rose as they ask for medical. Deville is held back by the referee as she screams that she will end Rose.
Backstage after the loss and the attack, Rose is seen with medical. Otis shows up and is rightfully concerned for her well being. She lets him know that she will be fine. He leaves and is approached by Dolph Ziggler who asks him if Mandy is okay. Otis doesn’t reply as he is seething with anger.
Carmella joins Lacey Evans, Dana Brooke, Shayna Baszler, Nia Jax, and Asuka for the MITB opportunity coming up one week from Sunday.
