The Money in the Bank ladder match is a multi-person ladder match held by the professional wrestling promotion WWE. First performed at WWE's annual WrestleMania event beginning in 2005, a separate Money in the Bank event was established in 2010. The match was originally only for male wrestlers but a women's version was introduced in 2017. The prize of the match is a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match of the winner's choice, which, within WWEs fictional storyline, can be "cashed in" by the holder of the briefcase at any point in the year following their victory.

"Y2J had an idea. Eric Bischoff capitalized on it. When Chris Jericho had a plan for WrestleMania, which included six Superstars, a chance of a lifetime and a ladder; a light in Bischoff's head went off. The RAW General Manager immediately picked five other Superstars to participate in the match – Shelton Benjamin, Edge, Chris Benoit, Christian and Kane – and assigned the prize, a future opportunity at the World Heavyweight Championship.
