WWE legend Rikishi has broken his silence on Money in the Bank 2025. This past weekend’s premium live event was a massive night for the Fatus. Not one, not two, but three of them had huge moments independent of each other.
Jey Uso main evented the show alongside Cody Rhodes, as they defeated John Cena and Logan Paul. Jacob Fatu broke out and attacked Solo Sikoa during the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Meanwhile, in perhaps the biggest moment of them all, Naomi won the women’s briefcase.
It was vindication, following years of hard work in the ring. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion has been rewarded for her recent performances as a heel and will have the chance to win another world title. This has prompted reactions from all over the wrestling world, including Rikishi.
Naomi’s father-in-law posted an Instagram story to congratulate her for winning Money in the Bank. The WWE Hall of Famer sent a two-word message in Samoan: Malo lava. It translates to “well done.”
It will be interesting to see when Naomi will cash in her newly won Money in the Bank contract. The last female briefcase holder, Tiffany Stratton, waited six months before using it to win the WWE Women’s Championship from Nia Jax.
Naomi could face Jade Cargill at WWE Evolution
Following her win at Money in the Bank, Naomi declared that her rivalry against Jade Cargill is not over. The two will continue feuding, having not faced off in a singles match since WrestleMania 41.
This might be because Naomi and Cargill’s blowoff match is being saved for Evolution. It can have a stipulation, as well, with The Storm coming out on top once and for all. Perhaps, the Money in the Bank briefcase could be on the line.
WWE has several huge storylines going on in the women’s division. It remains to be seen if Bianca Belair will insert herself into the feud, with her yet to commit to a side.
