Penta Teases 'Big Surprise' After WWE Money In The Bank Win

A few weeks after it was reported that WWE now viewed Penta as a future world champion and main event calibre star, the former Intercontinental Champion is now officially Mr. Money In The Bank. At the 2026 Money In The Bank PLE, he outlasted a field of CM Punk, Kevin Owens, Je’Von Evans, Trick Williams and Bron Breakker to stand tall, and in the aftermath he’s left fans with something to look forward to. 

During the Money In The Bank 2026 post-show, Penta discussed his emotions after winning the Money In The Bank contract, before promising that a big surprise was coming soon. 

“This is a big surprise. I have a lot of ideas in my mind right now, but for now, I am focused on what is next. Something in my soul feels Penta will soon become a World Champion. Very soon, I have a big surprise for everyone.”

Whether this means he’s already decided his plans for cashing in his Money In The Bank contract, or whether this is something more, is currently unclear. Penta went on to tell WWE’s reigning world champions to watch theirbacks. It was noted in the lead-up to the show that WWE had reportedly changed plans for Money In The Bank after Penta's rise in popularity.
