WWE Money in the Bank 2019 results: Brock Lesnar returns to win MITB, Bayley cashes in to claim Smackdown title

Brock Lesnar

With the men's Money in the Bank ladder match hanging in the balance, it was Brock Lesnar who stole it away to end the night at the WWE Money in the Bank 2019 event.

Lesnar wasn't scheduled to be in the match but the scenario had been set up earlier in the show with someone taking out Sami Zayn, freeing his spot in the match. It seemed that Braun Strowman was the person responsible, although he denied it. Come to find out, he was telling the truth as "The Beast" was the guilty party and he took advantage of the situation to get into the match and capitalize.

It was a surprise ending to what turned out to be a very eventful night of great action up and down the card. And it wasn't the only big surprise twist of the night either. The show began with Bayley winning the women's Money in the Bank ladder match, outlasting seven other women to grab the briefcase.

And it didn't take long for her to cash it in. 

After Becky Lynch successfully defended the "RAW" women's championship against Lacey Evans, Charlotte Flair then defeated Lynch for the "SmackDown" women's title with help from Evans. Following the match, Bayley came to Lynch's aid and ended up taking advantage of a golden opportunity, cashing in her newly won briefcase to defeat Charlotte and take the title for herself.

Also on the show, Seth Rollins retained the Universal championship against AJ Styles in a fantastic performance between the top-notch talents while Kofi Kingston held off Kevin Owens in a very good match to keep the WWE championship.
