Kayfabe wise, I guess the women are smarter than the men.

I think they just don't want to book longterm storylines like...having a briefcase and getting momentum and having a bit more spotlight so that when you do cash in it's not going from 0 to 60 in a few seconds where you run the risk of it not working but hey, what do I know. This is also a problem for the mens case btw but in the last few years they've actually made an effort to book storylines involving the briefcase with Otis/Miz and Big E rather than getting it off the holder asap like Nikki and Liv. They dont generally give the briefcase to the established women. They give it to the mid and low card women. And they really have no interest in creating any storylines for these women. So they give them a quick cash in and title reign. Then back to the big stars. Alexa Bliss(2018), Bayley(2019) and Asuka(2020) are mid and lowcard women....? |

She was receiving the title because Becky was leaving. And Bayley and Bliss both only won the briefcase so they could transition the title without creative having to do any work. |

Ehhh, Bayley was a vehicle to further her heel turn that was coming Bliss was to set up her and Ronda Rousey and screw Nia Jax who had beat her for the title in the first place |

It should be a fashionable purse!! But then no one would get it because Man.soor would be busy modeling it. |

The women don't hate the briefcase as much as Vince and creative hate booking it. It's better to get at least one of them out of the way ASAP before they can start getting really stupid with it.

Just like they hate each other, AM I RIGHT FELLAS? Who the hell let Jerry Lawler in here??!! Also, re: the topic at hand, this is the exact reason I don't care about Money in the Bank (or WWE in general, but that's not the point) anymore. The result is an afterthought, because it gets swept under the rug as soon as humanly possible. In fact, quick breakdown of every MitB so far: 2017: Carmella wins it twice and has the longest reign, because creative clearly had no plan for her with it. That's not hyperbole, either. They actually had Nattie and Charlotte both win it before Carmella finally cashed in about nine months later. 2018: Alexa/Ronda was clearly the plan, Money in the Bank was just the means to an end. 2019: Bayley was quickly positioned as the top woman on Smackdown after the draft, so of course they wasted no time in strapping her up. 2020: I'm not sure why the match had to be Money in the Bank and not just a six woman ladder match for the vacant title, but that's neither here nor there... 2021: At least until Monday/Friday happens, I'm going to call this the most useless cash-in yet. Well, unless you count turning Nikki into the division's biggest joke as something both useful and to be proud of. In which case... MISSION f***ING ACCOMPLISHED 2022: I want to be optimistic, but again, there's a reason I don't care or watch anymore...  |

The case color clashes with the gear. Unacceptable.

Well, they definitely hate it when you give them garbage bags, so there's got to be something in the middle🤔

I'd prefer more longer runs with the case like Edge/Carmella.
It does make sense in kayfabe though to cash-in quickly. It's only valid for a year and with how wrestling is you never know if you're going to break your neck or tear your ACL tomorrow, be out long-term and have to forfeit the case like Kennedy did. Although in that case it was kind of funny because his injury ended up not being as bad as first feared and he was back in a couple of months so they could easily have let him keep the briefcase.
