WWE Smackdown results: Andrade defeats Carmelo Hayes and Jacob Fatu to book Money in the Bank Ladder Match spot

Andrade has officially qualified for the 2025 Money in the Bank ladder match. He scored a big win on SmackDown by pinning Carmelo Hayes in a wild triple-threat match that also featured Jacob Fatu.

The match kicked off with all three Superstars flying into action. Andrade and Fatu briefly worked together before turning on each other. Hayes tried to stay in the mix but was knocked aside several times. On the outside, Fatu ran over The Miz with a brutal hip attack into the barricade just before the first commercial break.

Back in the ring, Andrade landed a Spanish Fly, and Hayes connected with a Codebreaker. Fatu tried to end things with a double jump moonsault, but Andrade broke up the pin. Solo Sikoa and JC Mateo walked to the ringside as the match heated up.

Tension within The Bloodline have been brewing for weeks, and it became clear as Solo Sikoa and JC Mateo barked orders at Jacob Fatu, telling him to hit another moonsault instead of going for the cover. Fatu hesitated, clearly frustrated, which opened the door for chaos. Jimmy Uso interfered and ran down to take out Mateo, Hayes got back in the ring and landed a Codebreaker on Fatu.

That miscommunication gave Andrade just enough time to regroup and capitalise. He grabbed Hayes and smashed him with The Message, his spinning back elbow, to get the three count and punch his ticket to Los Angeles.

With this victory, Andrade joins LA Knight, Penta, Seth Rollins, and Solo Sikoa in the Men¡¯s Money in the Bank 2025 ladder match. It was a win that proved timing is everything, and Andrade picked his moment perfectly.
