<P> On the May 30 episode of SmackDown Live , another Money in the Bank ladder match was added to the event , and for the first time , involving women . Charlotte Flair , Becky Lynch , Natalya , Carmella , and Tamina were originally scheduled to compete in a fatal five - way elimination match on that night to determine the number one contender for the SmackDown Women 's Championship at Money in the Bank . Before their match could begin , a brawl broke out between the five and the match never occurred . McMahon then scheduled the five to compete in the first - ever women 's Money in the Bank ladder match at the event where the winner would receive a contract for a SmackDown Women 's Championship match . Carmella won the match after James Ellsworth retrieved the briefcase , and threw it to her . On the following episode of SmackDown Live , however , SmackDown General Manager Daniel Bryan forced Carmella to relinquish the briefcase since Ellsworth retrieved it for her . On that same episode , Bryan also scheduled a Money in the Bank ladder match rematch for the June 27 episode with Ellsworth banned from ringside ( later from the arena ) . That episode , Carmella , with some aid from the banned Ellsworth , retrieved the briefcase herself and reclaimed the SmackDown Women 's Championship match contract . </P>
