This past Saturday, Logan Paul, Damian Priest, LA Knight, Ricochet, Shinsuke Nakamura, Santos Escobar, and Butch competed in the Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match. In the end, Priest grabbed the briefcase to become Mr. Money in the Bank.
However, a major spot that was planned for a potential storyline didn’t go as expected. During the match, LA Knight pushed the ladder while Logan Paul and Ricochet were on top of the ladder. Logan and Ricochet were supposed to do a Spanish Fly off the top rope through the two tables. The move was botched after Logan slipped on the rope.

On the Impaulsive podcast, The Maverick discussed the botched move in the Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match. Logan confirmed that he didn’t suffer a major injury.
“You saw, there was a botched move. There was a botched move with a dangerous landing. I walked away this time relatively unscathed. I got some scrapes and bruises but no major tweaks or pulls but, Ricochet and I were supposed to do what’s called a Spanish Fly off the top rope so one of our legs is on the rope, one of our legs is on the ladder and we were supposed to hit it at the same time and when he hit that rope, it was before me so he moved it so I slipped down all the way to the bottom.
Keep in mind, I’m a noob. I don’t really know what I’m doing out there so when stuff goes wrong, I don’t really know how to improv…Our legs are all twisted up like this. I’m looking at him, and I’m like, oh, this m********* is still trying to send this s****. I’m not even ready. His feet aren’t even planted. Off the second rope, just hawks a backflip.
I’m like, all right! Went crashing through the tables, scraped my shoulder, I hit my head on the thing. I’m fine, no concussions or anything but, it’s just a wild sport man. I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m gonna be honest, he blew the f****** match for me. That’s why we got into it backstage. I got into a little tussle with him. I don’t know bro, I felt like he was a little unprofessional.”
