WWE is making sure that they bring full-on entertainment to their audience in a tough time and hence continues to come up with newer concepts.
The latest in the list is the Money In The Bank Ladder match that takes place in a totally altered environment, this year. The gimmick-based matches won’t take place from the Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
They have confirmed that the Money In the Bank pay-per-view will feature the men’s and women’s Ladder Matches from WWE Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut.

The announcers present on the show noted that the ladder matches will begin on the bottom floor of the WWE Headquarters also known as Titan Tower. The matches will continue through three floors and the Money In The Bank briefcase will be hanging up on the roof. The participants must have to climb to the roof to get hold of the briefcase and to be called the winner.

The rules are the same for both the Men and Women’s division Ladder Matches. Reports are out claiming that WWE has filmed content for Money In the Bank at the headquarters in Stamford earlier this week, including some content up on the roof.
It looks like MITB matches were filmed. With that being said, promos regarding the first-ever “Climb The Corporate Ladder!” matches have begun from SmackDown on FOX.

Money In The Bank was originally scheduled to take place at the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, Maryland which was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
It’s been expected gimmick-based pay-per-view might be rescheduled at the closed-set WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida which is yet to be confirmed. But it’s certain that the two main attraction ladder matches would go down from the WWE Headquarters to get rid of the monotonous environment.
