  • Tiffany Stratton came to the ring to celebrate winning the 2024 Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match to become Ms. Money In The Bank, where she declared that Bayley, Roxanne Perez & Liv Morgan were all on notice. WWE Women's Champion Bayley then interrupted and tried to wisen up Stratton as she was the 2019 Winner, but then she claimed that Stratton did not know what WWE was back in 2019. Nia Jax confronted Bayley, calling her "BBL Bayley" and said that while Bayley was not the same person she injured in 2017, she would destroy Bayley at Summerslam. Jax & Stratton attacked Bayley, but "Michin" Mia Yim made the save.
  • Chelsea Green & Piper Niven were waiting outside Nick Aldis's office. Byron Saxton tried to get an interview with them, but Green kicked Saxton out.
  • Nia Jax (w/ Tiffany Stratton) def. "Michin" Mia Yim (w/ WWE Women's Champion Bayley) via Pinfall (Annihilator).
    • Bayley attacked Nia Jax after the match, but Tiffany Stratton struck Bayley from behind with the Women's Money In The Bank briefcase before laying Bayley out. Stratton was tempted to cash in the briefcase, but Jax confronted her to stop her. Stratton stepped back.
  • The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, Tonga Loa & Tama Tonga) had a vignette, where Sikoa said he stepped up as Tribal Chief to be a more aggressive family and promised to rule WWE for decades as long as he was the Tribal Chief, with Sikoa promising everyone would acknowledge him at the end of the night.
  • Byron Saxton interviewed Andrade El Idolo, but he was immediately interrupted by Carmelo Hayes, who declared himself MVP of the Men's 2024 Money In The Bank Ladder Match. After he was asked what was next for him by Saxton, Andrade pointed at Hayes and said "Him".
  • Legado del Fantasma (Angel Garza & Berto Carrillo) (w/ Santos Escobar & Elektra Lopez) def. Apollo Crews & Baron Corbin via Pinfall (Wing Clipper from Garza on Crews).
  • Pretty Deadly (Elton Prince & Kit Wilson) tried to meet with Nick Aldis regarding the budget of their musical, but Chelsea Green & Piper Niven stopped them and told them they needed to be in a line. LA Knight then got out of Nick Aldis's office with a contract in hand before telling Green & Niven that Aldis was a bit busy and they would need to wait a little longer. LA Knight then headed from backstage to the ring.
  • Randy Orton met with Cody Rhodes backstage, saying that while Kevin Owens was with his family, he promised to have Rhodes's back.
  • LA Knight came to the ring to cut a promo. Knight said he understood about losing the Men's Money In The Bank but said he had his eyes on something else. Knight revealed he had a contract signed for him to challenge Logan Paul for the United States Title for SummerSlam, and all that was missing was Paul's signature.
  • There was a vignette for Blair Davenport ahead of her match.
  • There was a video package of John Cena announcing his WWE retirement tour on the 2024 edition of Money In The Bank.
  • Naomi def. Blair Davenport via Pinfall (Full Nelson Bomb).
  • After speaking with Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill, Blair Davenport congratulated Naomi on the win and said the better person won. As Chelsea Green & Piper Niven complained to Naomi because Nick Aldis was not here, it was revealed the act of sportsmanship from Davenport was a trap as Blair attacked Naomi from behind.
  • WWE Tag Team Championship Match: #DIY (Tomasso Ciampa & Johnny Gargano) (c) def. A-Town Down Under (Grayson Waller & Austin Theory) via Pinfall (Meet Me In The Middle) To Retain The Titles.
    • Jacob Fatu immediately attacked Theory after the match, catching him with a running. Ciampa hit a Death Rider on Fatu, but Fatu shook it off and laid out both Ciampa & Gargano to wreck shop on both members of #DIY before Fatu hit a Split Leg Moonsault on Gargano and a standard Moonsault Press on Ciampa. This vicious attack led to The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa) making their entrance.
  • After the commercial break, Solo Sikoa said he had to step up as the Tribal Chief after The Bloodline lost all the titles, explaining he had to lay out Paul Heyman & Jimmy Uso before declaring if Roman Reigns ever returned to WWE, he would have to acknowledge him as the "Tribal Chief". Sikoa said Cody Rhodes had to acknowledge him, leading to the Undisputed WWE Champion interrupting. Rhodes said they both wanted the same thing and revealed that he would face Sikoa at WWE SummerSlam, but clarified he would be waiting until SummerSlam if he had it his way. Tonga Loa, Tama Tonga, Jacob Fatu & Solo Sikoa surrounded Rhodes, leading to The Bloodline laying our Rhodes, but Randy Orton immediately appeared. Orton took out everyone before hitting Sikoa with a Draping DDR but Fatu caught Orton with a running Back Elbow, leading Guerrillas of Destiny (Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa) to attack Orton. After that, Fatu & Sikoa wrapped Rhodes on the ropes while Tama Tonga & Tonga Loa laid out Orton with a series of stair strikes to the abdomen before Sikoa hit the Samoan Spike on Rhodes. The Bloodline stood tall to end the broadcast.
