While there is a lot of fanfare around the WrestleMania Showcase and story modes for WWE 2K24, its longevity is through the Universe modes. This is where fans can create their dream teams, matchups, rivalries, and stories. The Classic version of WWE 2k24's Universe mode offers more flexibility and control and the Superstar version focuses on one wrestler.

The Money In the Bank stipulation creates a scenario where the holder of the briefcase can cash in their Money in the Bank and challenge for the title in a normal title match, or they can run in mid-match to set up a Triple Threat match or post-match to wrestle the exhausted winner of the title to take the belt. This guide will show you how to create and cash in the Money in the Bank in WWE 2K24.

The in-game explanations and tutorials for the Universe modes are unclear and extremely frustrating when players are trying to figure out how to set up a Money in the Bank cash-in opportunity. The Superstar mode is the most challenging and time-consuming process, because it focuses on one WWE superstar and forces you to participate in every one of their matches. Use this quick workaround to place the Money in the Bank briefcase on your desired wrestler without having a match:

Switch To Classic Mode

  • Select Options.
  • Change the Current Playstyle to Classic Mode.
  • Select the next show and Edit Matches.
  • Delete or edit one of the match slots on the card.
  • Choose a one-on-one match with the wrestler you want to use in Superstar Mode.
  • Press the R3/RS button to switch the title match on.
  • Press the accept button and choose MITB.

  • You can Announce Cash-In, have a Mid-Match Cash-In, or Post-Match Cash-In.
  • Select Play for the next match.

If you select Mid-Match Cash-In you must spectate the match between the champion and the challenger until your wrestler enters the match, starting a Triple Threat Match for the title.

It's less troublesome getting the Money In The Bank opportunity in classic mode, but still tedious if you aren't sure how to get it working. Use the following steps if you find yourself frustrated:

  • Use the above steps to set your desired Money to the Bank Holder.
  • Open the Rivalries menu to create a rivalry in WWE 2K24.
  • Create a rivalry with the current champion and your Money In The Bank holder.
  • Edit the show so it has a match set between the MITB holder and the Champion.
  • Press the R3/RS button to access the Rivalries Actions.
  • Press Triangle/Y to activate Free Mode.

  • Select the MITB cash-in option
  • Depending on the intensity of the rivalry or the momentum, you can choose an MITB Triple Threat Cashin, MITB Post-Match Cash-In, or MITB Post-Match Cash-In Attack.
  • Open the show's matches, simulate all matches until you get your MITB match, and select Play.

The Post Match Cash-In Attack Option will start the match with the MITB holder attacking the champion from behind.

That's everything needed for the Superstar and Classic Universe modes in WWE 2K24. Hopefully, the developers can implement more quality-of-life improvements to set up these matches and rivalries in future updates.
