How To Complete The Women’s Showcase MITB Ladder Match
The MITB ladder match is giving a lot of players trouble, particularly when it comes to completing the timed objective. Below are some tips on how to complete each match requirement so you can secure all the rewards for winning.
|
Objective |
How To Complete |
|---|---|
|
Time to make history! Show each one of these *other* Superstars who runs this show and dish out the Damage! |
Inflict damage on any of the other combatants through strikes, grappling, or even throwing weapons at them. |
|
Pulverize Charlotte Flair with a Heavy Combo! |
A Heavy Combo is any striking combination that ends with a Heavy Attack (X on PS, A on Xbox). Hit Charlotte with one of these to complete. |
|
Get Becky in the corner and smash her with a Heavy Corner Attack! |
Irish Whip Becky into the corner with Circle/B, then either hit her with a running attack (L2/LT to run) or standing Heavy Attack with X/A. |
|
Carry Carmella high and then give her a big fall with a Carry Attack! |
Grapple Carmella with Circle/B, then press R1/RB to lift her into a Carry position. From there, hit one of the attack buttons to complete the objective. |
|
Natalya feels safe walking around your ring?! A Heavy Attack should make her regret that decision! |
Hit Natalya with any Heavy Attack, using the X/A button. |
|
When you and Charlotte Flair are both standing in the ring, wipe that smirk off her face with one of your Running Attacks! |
With Charlotte in the ring, run towards her with L2/LB and press Square/Circle/X or X/A/B to initiate the attack, which will prompt a cut scene |
|
Strike fast – you’ve got 30 seconds to keep Natalya out of the ring (and away from a win) and dishing out enough pain to remove her as a threat! |
This is easily the hardest objective in the match, as it is timed. Dodge attacks from anyone else and focus on Natayla. We found success from a running attack, followed by a mixture of ground strikes. If you differ your button inputs between the three main attack buttons, she will be less likely to reverse your attacks. If you want to be more prepared, grab a couple of weapons and put them near the announce table before you complete the previous objective. |
|
It won’t be easy, but there’s only one thing left to do: climb this ladder and become the first ever woman to win Money in the Bank! |
You can pick up a ladder with L1/LB and set it up with X/A, then climb with R1/RB. Once at the top, press the L1/LB to initiate the match-ending mini game. You’ll need to rapidly press the buttons as they pop up to move to the next stage, or you may have the option to skip a stage with R2 + X/RB + A. If you get that option, take it, as speed will be of the utmost importance. |
Tips For Winning The Showcase MITB Ladder Match
Given the number of competitors in the Money in the Bank match, and the “Tornado Rules” nature of the match, it can be difficult to win, let alone complete the objectives before going for the briefcase. Here are a few pointers to hopefully help tick all the boxes and pick up the historic victory in the first-ever women’s MITB match.
- Pick your battles – there are five contestants, which means there will be opportunities to separate yourself from the fight and let the others deal damage to each other.
- Keep the ladder out of the ring until you’re ready. The last thing you want is someone going for the briefcase while you’re in the middle of being attacked or are lying outside stunned.
- Use weapons liberally – you can grab an assortment of weapons from under the ring (on the left, right, and top sides). Opt for the smaller items like the Kendo stick, chair, or sledgehammer, as the table and ladder are a bit slower when it comes to striking.
- Dish out plenty of damage to everyone – the more hurt someone is, the easier it is to keep them down, so make sure you’re inflicting plenty of pain across the board.
- Before you go for the briefcase, make sure you either toss the others out of the ring like it’s a Royal Rumble, or at least incapacitate them.
- Be prepared to reverse any attacks while you’re on the ladder, even if it means letting go of the briefcase for a moment.
- If the option is there during the briefcase mini-game, skip a stage!
