Lola Vice has spoken publicly for the first time about a tense and painful moment she shared with WWE Women’s United States Champion Jacy Jayne during the women’s Money in the Bank Ladder match at the 2026 WWE Money in the Bank Premium Live Event. Vice described the incident as something that “hurt a lot” and “was very scary,” offering fans a rare, candid look at the physical risks involved in multi-person ladder matches.
According to reports, the moment occurred when Vice and Jayne found themselves positioned on the same side of a ladder during the match, trading strikes at close range. The exchange escalated when Vice applied a chokehold to Jayne while the two remained tangled together on the ladder, a position that left little room for error given the structure’s instability and the height involved.
Ladder matches are widely regarded as among the most physically demanding match types in professional wrestling, precisely because competitors are required to climb, balance and fight for position simultaneously, often several feet off the mat with no safety net beyond their own control and that of their opponents. When two competitors end up on the same side of a ladder exchanging offense, as Vice and Jayne did, the margin for a miscommunication or loss of balance narrows considerably, which appears to be at the heart of why Vice characterized the moment as frightening in the aftermath.
Jayne, who held the WWE Women’s United States Championship at the time of the match, was among the notable names competing in the ladder match alongside Vice, underscoring the stakes of the bout even beyond the traditional Money in the Bank briefcase prize on the line. The match itself was billed as one of the marquee bouts of the Money in the Bank 2026 card.
Neither Vice nor WWE has indicated that the moment resulted in any missed time or lingering issues, and the comments from Vice appear to be a reflective account of the match rather than an announcement of injury. The incident nonetheless highlights the unpredictable nature of ladder match spots, where even experienced performers like Vice and Jayne can find themselves in unexpectedly precarious situations mid-match.
