Roman Reigns defeated LA Knight to retain the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Money in the Bank on September 10, 2026, at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans. The show opened with Alix Paige performing the national anthem and a Paul Levesque-narrated Money in the Bank video; Byron Saxton introduced the title bout and Eddie Orengo refereed. WrestleTix listed the building set for 13,263 with 12,935 tickets distributed out of 17,197 total seats on the map. The match saw LA Knight control long stretches early, including a superplex and a Burning Hammer for a nearfall, plus a small cut to Knight’s forehead. Reigns fought back with a Superman Punch, an uranage slam nearfall, and traded brutal sequences on the floor that included running each other into ring posts and steps and a near powerbomb-by-the-announce-table spot. Fans chanted “this is awesome” during the finish stretch and briefly chanted “OTC” earlier; commentary included Michael Cole and Corey Graves. Reigns retained the title, closing the main match of the show and keeping the World Heavyweight Championship on his roster heading into WWE’s upcoming schedule.

This reads like a parody of what Fed fans think AEW is capped off with Roman Wins LOL. I don't understand how people can watch this shit and be anything other than bored.
