WWE is thinking outside the box for the Money in the Bank pay-per-view. For the first time ever, the Money in the Bank ladder matches will take place from WWE Headquarters in Stamford, CT.
Over the last few weeks, there have been some rumors about a talent taking a big bump from the roof of WWE headquarters.
According to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, a big spot from the roof was in fact filmed. Details are sparse, but Dave Meltzer reports that WWE CEO Vince McMahon worked directly with an unnamed wrestler on the stunt.
The 74-year-old McMahon, who is known for ‘not asking anything of his performers he wouldn’t do himself,’ reportedly demonstrated the the bump to demonstrate its safety.
Meltzer wrote, “There have been descriptions from people who were aware of the taping of Vince McMahon showing whoever was supposed to go off the top that they had set it up safely and he demonstrated it.”
This report comes after RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch stated in a recent interview that she witnessed Vince showing someone how to fall from “a tower.”
