Trick Williams, the reigning United States Champion, has officially locked in his spot in the 2026 Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match. He got there by topping Randy Orton and Rey Fénix in a Qualifying Match on Friday’s SmackDown from Corpus Christi, Texas.
Orton came in off a win over Cody Rhodes on Sunday Night’s Main Event, while Fénix was coming off defending the AAA World Cruiserweight Championship against Ricky Saints on SmackDown the week before.
The finish came late in the match, when Fénix went for a move off the top rope and instead ran into an Orton RKO out of the air. Williams wasted no time, catching Orton with a Trick Shot and sending him out of the ring before turning right back around to pin Fénix for the win.
The win puts Williams in the field alongside Bron Breakker and Je’Von Evans, who round out the first three men confirmed for the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
WWE Money in the Bank is set for October 10.
