Tonight at 8:00 p.m., one of the most exciting events on the WWE calendar will kick off on pay-per-view, the annual Money in the Bank card. This year's slate can be live streamed here, and will feature two title matches, in addition to the much-hyped six-man ladder matches.
The most anticipated match of the night is the All-Stars Money in the Bank match, which features six former WWE champions, including returning ex-ECW hero Rob Van Dam. Joining RVD will be CM Punk, Randy "The Viper" Orton, Sheamus, and bite-sized fan favorite Daniel Bryan.
Kane was supposed to be the sixth combatant, but he was attacked by the Wyatt family, and has been removed from the card due to injury, per WWE.com. No replacement has been named and the match could conceivably proceed with just five men. To win the match, one of the grapplers must ascend a ladder and pull down a briefcase suspended above the ring. The winner can cash in a title shot at any time he pleases.
In the other Money in the Bank match, the Rising Stars match, will feature up-and-comers Wade Barrett, Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Dean Ambrose, Fandango, Jack Swagger, and Antonio Cesaro. Ambrose is a member of The Shield, and is also the current WWE U.S. belt holder.
In the WWE Championship bout, John Cena will face "The World's Strongest Man," Mark Henry. Cena has regained his invincibility since defeating The Rock at Wrestlemania, and although Henry poses a stiff physical challenge, Cena should emerge victorious.
In the second title fight, World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio will defend the title against Dolph Ziggler, who seems to have fully recovered from his concussion at the hands of Jack Swagger.
The rest of the card features several lesser title belts on the line. The Diva champion A.J. Lee defending her title against Kaitlyn, Intercontinental champ Curtis Axel will face off with ex-reality television star The Miz, and tag team champions Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns of The Shield will do battle with The Usos.
In a non-title matchup Chris "Y2J" Jericho will try to use his superior in-ring technical prowess against physical marvel Ryback.
