WWE is pulling out several major elements for tonight’s edition of Raw including the tease that Big E. will cash in the Money in the Bank briefcase.
Big E. announced on Monday that he intends to cash in the MITB contract and become WWE Champion on tonight’s episode.
Let’s let that cat out of the bag…I intend on cashing in my Money in the Bank contract tonight and cashing in to become WWE Champion.
