WWE SmackDown this week in Greensboro, North Carolina, was the site of the WWE Money in the Bank 2025 qualifiers for both the women’s and men’s ladder matches. Earlier in the night, the first woman to qualify for the ladder match was determined in a banger of a contest. Of course, the men will not be outdone as Rey Fenix, Jimmy Uso, and his little brother, Solo Sikoa, showed up and showed out on this night.
For most of the match, Solo Sikoa was like a house on fire, taking control of both his big brother Jimmy Uso and the high-flying Rey Fenix. Sikoa had a chip on his shoulder, wanting to prove that he could do it without help. Unfortunately, that’s not what happened. Jacob Fatu and JC Mateo would get involved.

Rey Fenix was on the verge of winning it. But with all the shenanigans, Solo Sikoa would come out on top, delivering the Samoan Spike to qualify for the Men’s Money in the Bank 2025 Ladder Match.
HE DID IT!!
