– Because of the uncertainty surrounding Daniel Bryan and the WWE World Heavyweight Title, WWE is going with the idea that this year’s Money In the Bank ladder match would be for the vacated title if Bryan is unable to compete, as announced last week.
The feeling is that they do not want to do a pay-per-view without the title at stake and Payback had it at stake through the in-ring segment with Stephanie McMahon, Bryan and Brie Bella.
