WWE Money In The Bank is returning to Las Vegas next year.
During tonight’s SummerSlam pay-per-view, WWE confirmed that the next Money In The Bank event will take place at Allegiant Stadium on “4th of July weekend” in 2022. No specific date was announced, but July 4 is a Monday next year, making it likely that the pay-per-view will take place on that Saturday or Sunday (July 2 or 3).
This will mark WWE’s second event in Allegiant Stadium after SummerSlam and it will mark the second MITB pay-per-view in Las Vegas overall, as Money In The Bank was held at the T-Mobile Arena in 2016. Next year’s MITB event will also mark WWE’s second pay-per-view event in Las Vegas since hosting the Elimination Chamber event in 2018.
WWE issued the following press release after the announcement was made on the broadcast:
LAS VEGAS, August 21, 2021 – On the heels of a record-breaking SummerSlam in Las Vegas, WWE announced tonight that it will return to Allegiant Stadium July 4th weekend of 2022 for WWE Money In The Bank.
