In one of the matches, Daniel Bryan returns to action against Cesaro after the Wrestlemania 36 loss. From the women’s division, Naomi takes on Dana Brooke to determine the first entrant for the women’s Money in the Bank ladder match. WWE has plans to host a men’s and women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match to take place at the May 10 pay-per-view.
They still have not confirmed the MITB pay-per-view location. Probably, the Performance Center will host another WWE Network special following Wrestlemania 36.

The Wrestlemania storyline for Smackdown tag titles showed that The Miz suffered an injury and was unable to compete which is why they went with the three-man match canceling the original lineup.

Thus, Jey Uso, Big E and The Miz will be fighting over the titles.
