WWE Announces Date Change For Money In The Bank 2026

WWE has announced a change for Money In The Bank 2026.

After WrestleMania 42 was moved from New Orleans to Las Vegas, Triple H announced that The Big Easy would still get a PLE in 2026, with Money in the Bank heading to the city on August 29th. The event will be held in the Smoothie King Center and will mark the first time the city has hosted the PLE in its 16-year history.

However, WWE has now issued a press release noting that the event will be held on September 6th, a week later than originally planned. There was no explanation given for the move.

“WWE, in conjunction with the Greater New Orleans Sports Foundation and Legends Global, has announced that Money in the Bank will now take place Sunday, Sept. 6, 2026 — one week later than originally announced — at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.

Money in the Bank features WWE’s biggest Superstars as they battle to earn a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match at a time and place of their choosing anytime within the next year.”

Further ticket details will be announced in the coming months, but fans can register for “pre-sale opportunites” on WWE’s website now.
