[9.0] "I really enjoyed it, especially when I saw Alexa get the briefcase with the money, and then during the Nia Jax vs Ronda Rousey fight she stormed the ring and gave both fighters a hard time. The rest of the matches were absorbing too. I've no complaints."

[6.0] "It's not a bad show but it's not enjoyable either. Why is this PPV 4 hours long? 4 hours should be the length of a WrestleMania, not Money in the Bank. Anyways, the opener was fine but Big Cass as Bryan's first singles program since his return wasn't that ideal looking back. Lashley vs Sami was insulting, Seth vs Elias was really good with some nice psychology involved and the women's MITB was good but not that memorable. Roman vs Jinder was mid, Jinder was a dull worker and it was pretty much a filler feud before Roman got his hands on Brock again. Having Roman work with Jinder did him no favors at all. Carmella vs Asuka was meh but I liked the finish with Ellsworth returning. AJ vs Shinsuke, good match but went a bit too long. I'm not sure if Shinsuke's style really suited a LMS match but they did a fairly good job here. Ronda vs Nia was decent and Ronda looked good in her first singles match. Alexa's cash in was pretty awesome. The main event was one of the weakest MITB matches ever, but Strowman running wild was fun to see. If a few matches were cut this would've been a better show, but still solid nonetheless."

[8.0] "Both men and women's MITB ladder matches and the last man standing match were all really fantastic and most of the undercard was pretty good, but it had three WMOTY calibre matches in Bobby Vs Sami, Roman Vs Jinder and Asuka Vs Carmella and the 4 hour runtime was way to long for this show. Overall despite it's flaws Money In The Bank (2018) is still a really good show and one of the better PPVs of it's kind."

Dynamax Dawn wrote on 31.05.2023:

[8.0] "Though I'm glad they don't do these 4 hour PPVs anymore, I do think they did cram a lot of good content in Money in the Bank 2018. AJ vs Shinsuke was the match of the night as far as I'm concerned. I gave it a 10/10 because it had some really good drama and the crowd was super into it. The women's money in the bank match was really good too as was Seth Rollins vs Elias. I honestly don't think I've seen a better Elias match before. Seth and him did a really good job. On the other side of the coin Roman vs Jinder was atrocious and reminded me how awful Roman's face push got at times. The only other thing I'll note was how bad Coachman's commentary was, like besides it being gross that WWE was rehabing him after getting fired from ESPN for being a pest, he just sounded absolutely lost on the mic, to a point where Michael Cole even called him out for saying dumb shit. That doesn't really affect my rating, but damn is he a bad commentator."

T1JDreamer wrote on 22.06.2018:

[8.0] "I liked it however I got at least one MAJOR question as well as two or three minor points and minor questions: Minor Question 1-Why the heck was The SmackDown Tag Team Championship on the Preshow? Point 1-Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows has gotten the rematch they deserved, so no issue there in my OPINION. Minor Question 2-Why did Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass open if they actually knew they that they were going to fire Cass. Point 2-The point I think is that this match should have been preshow. Point 3-I think Bobby Lashley vs. Sami Zayn should have opened Money in the Bank. Minor Question 3-Was Elias a filler for another plan that they chose to can? Point 4-Seth Rollins was just short of Amazing in that idea to do the open challenge after getting the title. Minor Question 4-Why was this not an open challenge? Minor Question 5-Why did it seem that match had some issues? Point 5-I noticed that Becky Lynch had to fake not getting in position in a timely manner. Minor Question 6-Was Becky supposed to win and the end get changed & all of them forget? Point 6-I think Roman beating Jinder again was just a slight bit too obvious. Minor Question 7-Why did James Ellsworth have to predictably return and help Carmella win? Point 7-That wink was stupid. It wasn't even a wink it was a BLINK because both eyes shut. Point 8-AJ Styles retaining by Last Man Standing was basically in MY OPINION a continuation of Backlash. MAJOR Question-I run my own company PCW (Pro Competitive Wrestling) so HOW where the ring announcer never said winner by DQ is this a DQ? Point 9-I thought where she hit BOTH Ronda & Nia before cash in that it would be a No Contest. Point 10-That cash in was a total shock for once. Minor Question 8-Why did Braun win? Was this the original Plan? What happens if Lesnar no shows or Braun is not there? Point 11-One of the SmackDown Guys should have won because Lesnar is going to dodge Braun."

FatKraker wrote on 22.06.2018:

[7.0] "Some good matches but the show was definitely too long. Both MITB matches and the WWE Title match were ****+ and some solid work from the IC match. Ronda Rousey continues to be extremely impressive and the cash-in worked well. The Reigns vs. Mahal and Lashley vs. Zayn were boring and the Smackdown Women's title match had no redeeming features."

DanTalksRasslin wrote on 22.06.2018:

[7.0] "An over-long mixed bag, but for once, the good edged out the bad. While the men's MITB match seems to have received a mixed reaction, I enjoyed it quite a bit and thought it had some fun sequences and a positive result with Braun winning. The women's MITB match also delivered, with perhaps even stronger action throughout than the men's counterpart, though it had the wrong result (Becky should have won; of the field Alexa needed it the least). While the Styles vs Nakamura rivalry has been disappointing overall, their match tonight was easily their best under the WWE banner (though the result does leave Nakamura out in the cold). Ronda's first singles match - which couldn't have been easy to have on live PPV - came off well, and I actually don't mind the DQ finish as it allows both Nia and Ronda to look strong and avoided putting the belt on Ronda prematurely. Most of the other matches were fine, if unremarkable. While Roman vs Jinder wasn't great, I don't think it was as bad as the crowd reaction made it out to be - but the crowd just wasn't having it, and WWE has no one to blame for that but themselves. If nothing else, the two Money in the Bank matches and Styles vs Nakamura are worth seeking out."

[8.0] "The AJ/NAKAMURA series has been a let-down, "match quality wise" thus far, IMO. Just like this match started out, but sometime around AJ's springboard forearm attempt into Naka's kick it took a turn for the better. The spots were brutal but I'd of rather of had the sadistic chair on Styles throat spot earlier. Kind of hard to believe he goes on past that. **** 1/4. Great overall. Roman-Mahal 1/4* HATED how they tried to drown out boo's with loud commentary. Big Cass is pathetic, DB could only get so much out of him. **. Carmella and Asuka did pretty good! ***, Zayn-Lashley's whole feud & match is a disaster. 1/2*. the Mens MITB was decent. few good spots and decent pace. Lacluster ending, though. Still good *** 3/4. The Elias-Rollins is kind of overrated it seems. Strong though. *** 1/2, same rating for the Bliss-Jax-Rousey fiasco which was sloppy in parts but impressive in others. The match of the night is clearly the Ladies MITB IMO. Right on par with LMS. **** 1/4. Amazing matches."

[8.0] "Money in the Bank ladder matches always deliver on excitement, this year was no different and with the women stepping up with a better effort from last year, and a nice match between Styles and Nakamura (the best they've had in WWE) made this a pretty good show. Rollins with another top effort as per usual"

[7.0] "There are strong matches and some lows in this event. The undercard is bad, except for a really good Rollins vs Elias that always delivers. AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura is the best match and the two MITB matches are enjoyable. There are some surprises, Alexa Bliss wins the MITB and then the title. Roman Reigns vs Jinder Mahal is the worst match, really boring and too long. It's a good event."

[9.0] "Got back home in time for the SD! Live Women's Championship between Carmella & Asuka. Great match and awesome ending with the mind games. Carmella proved to be the rightful champion on SD! Live. I knew Alexa Bliss was gonna win the Women's Money In The Bank Ladder Match. AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura was a great match until AJ Styles pulled that desperation low blow kick. AJ Styles has now stooped to Brock Lesnar level as champion. Nia Jax vs Ronda Rousey was good but the DQ finish at the end with Alexa Bliss attack both of them with the briefcase was genius. Alexa Bliss cashing in after Nia Jax just went through a grueling match was the best Money In The Bank Cash in on the PPV, this beats Kane's money in the bank cash in hands down. Brilliant move to become 3 time RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss. The Men's match was great. Especially Kevin Owens crashing through the tables. And Braun Strowman proving to the monster in the bank. Team Little Big sweeps both briefcases for RAW. This is the first time one brand won prospective briefcases in one night. Will watch the rest of the event tomorrow. But I'm glad to see that The Bludgeons Bros retained their tag team titles. RAW in Boston wasn't sold out yet and it still had Alexa Bliss listed as champion. If you like boring title runs you watching the wrong wrestling organization. You want that watch Anthem/Impact or whatever the hell they wanna call themselves now. Alexa Bliss shouldn't have lost the title to Nia Jax in the first place. Nia Jax go the title to shut her cousin Dwayne The Rock Johnson up. Vince gave The Rock his word that would make Nia Jax champion, he didn't say anything about a long title so all you Alexa Bliss haters out shut the hell up. Alexa Bliss sells merchandise, Nia Jax doesn't. Alexa Bliss has more merchandise available than any current wwe women's division competitor. Also Ric Flair said it in an interview that Ronda Rousey is gonna get use to losing. She's only been brought in to help wit"

[5.0] "Alright show until you look at the booking of things. Might be my overall disdain for the company but almost all the results ruined the matches for money. Seeing Bryan drag Cass to a good match(despite Yaffa thinking every Bryan match is incredible) was fun and Ronda was great in her singles debut. Actual made Nia look like a monster for the first time since her takeover match with Bayley. Rest of the show can kiss my ass"

[9.0] "Bryan/Cass was an absolutely fantastic opener w/ Bryan once again proving his GOATness (****1/4), Lashley/Zayn was perfectly fine, yet a bit disappointing considering the potential the match had on paper (**), Rollins/Elias wasn't my thing (*1/4), the women's MITB was really good - great pacing & flow (***3/4), I also actually really enjoyed Jinder/Reigns, even though Chicago was never (understandably so) gonna give it a real chance (***), Carmella/Asuka was goddamn awful, just can't buy into Asuka having to sell for anything Carmella does (DUD), Styles/Nakamura was the best match of their WWE rivalry yet - very physical & a good sense of urgency (***1/2), Nia/Ronda was just outsanding, unreal how it was Ronda's FIRST EVER SINGLES MATCH - Nia's best performance so far in her career, too (****1/4), the men's MITB, much like the women's one had a very good flow & the big spots were well done - really good stuff all around (***3/4). Overall the PPV was a big success, in my eyes. A few bad matches here & there, but most of the stuff ruled, including a couple of 4*+ bangers."

[2.0] "How the fuck can the main roster do something like this after Takeover Chicago II and not wonder what's wrong ? The two male title matches were alright, the Women's MITB was good but completely ridiculous like every MITB ever (Like when Becky Lynch had the briefcase but decided to stay there like an idiot and wait for someone to fuck her up), the men's MITB was probably one of the worst I've seen, everything else was shit. WWE putting the title on Alexa just to cover up their shitty booking of Rousey vs Nia Jax, Braun winning the briefcase while being the only one who really doesn't need it... I can't understand why Lashley vs Zayn was on the main show and the tag match on the kickoff either. A horrible show, not even close to NXT or NJPW's latest shows"

[9.0] "Money In The Bank 2018 was a great show by WWE. Daniel Bryan vs Big Cass was a fantastic opener with back and forth action (4. 0/5. 0), Bobby Lashley vs Sami Zayn was the worst match of night and was only done to give Bobby Lashley some momentum (3. 0/5. 0), Seth Rollins vs Elias was match of the night because it was fast paced and the wrestling was great (4. 5/5. 0), The Women? s Money In The Bank Ladder Match was a big step up from their 2017 Ladder Match with great spots and wrestling (4. 0/5. 0), Roman Reigns vs Jinder Mahal was surprisingly a good match, but felt a little slow (3. 5/5. 0), Carmella vs Asuka was also a good match which seen the surprise return of James Ellsworth (3. 5/5. 0), AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura was a outstanding match, but it did start a little slow (4. 5/5. 0), Ronda Rousey vs Nia Jax was a shocker not only for how great the match was, but also Alexa Bliss? s cash in (4. 0/5. 0), The Men? s Money In The Bank Ladder Match was a great match which had a fantastic spot involving Kevin Owens and Braun Strowman, but I think The Miz or Kevin Owens should have won (4. 5/5. 0)"

[5.0] "It was an ok event. Not great and not that good either but still not bad. I didn't like both the MITB winners. I wanted either Ember Moon or Becky Lynch to win. Also none of the finish was great. All of them were disappointing. I know that Braun is made to looked like a complete monster but in a ladder match u have got to give edge to the smaller guys. Wanted Finn Balor or Owens or Rusev or Joe to win but Stroman won. Not a bad decision since he is hot right now but Braun absolutely didn't need to win the briefcase. He can just beat Lesnar for the title. Hope Seth looses his title and becomes the next Universal champion because no one is as hot as Seth Rollins right now. Also gotta give props to Rhonda Rousey."
