We are in Hampton, Virginia and your announcers are Josh ‘Running all of the Big Cities’ Mathews and Miz.

Zeb Colter says that America was built on the concept of climbing the ladder to get to the next rung. It is a simple concept, but along the way, that concept was altered. That ladder has been replaced by a La-Z-Boy recliner. The hard work was traded in when the illegal immigrants were allowed to sneak across our borders. The only calluses that we will see are on the tips of the fingers from being on the computer.

Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro are hard working Americans and at Money in the Bank, they will sacrifice everything to climb a real ladder to get the contract that guarantees a title shot against the World Champion.
