Double Review in once! :D



X: Mr. Kennedy
Match: Randy Orton vs. CM Punk vs. Mr. Kennedy vs. King Booker vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Edge vs. Matt Hardy vs. Finlay (Wrestlemania 23)

This is one of the most built-up Money in the Bank matches, this match have one of the most amazing time in Wrestlemania, to be honest. A few TLC alums were on display in this match, one being how Jeff Hardy perform a leg drop from the ladder onto a helpless Edge lying onto another ladder. There were a good or decent amount of good spots off the ladders before Mr. Kennedy manner to get his briefcase for a title spot.

Cash In: Sadly, This will ended tragic, as Mr. Kennedy is the first Superstar to actually lose his contract before cashing it in, as he lost the briefcase to Edge a month later. Edge would later cash for the World Heavyweight Champion from the Undertaker after he went to a draw in a steel cage match for his title with Batista, before getting attacked by Mark Henry afterword

Aftermath: Man, Mr. Kennedy was misuse in WWE. Not only did he lost his Money in the Bank by injuring, but he also lost his big push as Mc.McMahon illegitimate son due to his suspension. Added the fact that he was fired by the complain by the likes of Randy Orton and John Cena, and it’s my you wonder why Ken Kennedy never return to WWE…maybe…

X: John Cena
Match: John Cena vs. Kane vs. Chris Jericho vs. The Miz vs. Big Show (Money In The Bank 2012 (WWE Championship Briefcase))

Consisting of five former world champions, this was the least populated MITB ladder match, with the best part of it all being Booker T’s commentary. John Cena made an impact by putting Big Show through the announce table early, but followed up by botching the ending and barely connecting with any of his briefcase shots to Show’s head. And let me added you something, WHY the FUCK was this the Main Evert instead of CM Punk vs Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship.

Cash In: Cena announced that he would cashed in his Money in the Bank Briefcase on CM Punk on the Raw 1000th Episode. However, Cena’s cash-in would be the first unsuccessful attempt at a world championship, as he won the match by DQ by the inference of Big Show. One of the most wasteful Money in the Bank with the only real payoff being CM Punk heel turn.

Aftermath: It’s John freaking Cena, he’s the freaking face of WWE, even if people hate him…that is all. :l

X: Damien Sandow
Match: Dean Ambrose vs. Cesaro vs. Wade Barrett vs. Fandango vs. Jack Swagger vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Damian Sandow (Money in the Bank 2013 (World Heavyweight Championship))

A number of talented wrestlers took part in this match, where The Real Americans and Team Rhodes Scholars vowed to work together for the briefcase. Dean Ambrose, who had the Philly crowd behind him, received help from The Shield until The Usos came to even things out. The conclusion of this match saw Damian Sandow turn on Cody Rhodes for a shot at the championship in a shocker.

Cash In: Poor Sandow, man. His big push and briefcase turn off to be wasteful. Sandow’s cash-in wasn’t successful, losing to Cena on an episode of Raw in late 2013. Made even worse since this is the last time the World Heavyweight Champion was active before vacate with the WWE Championship.

Aftermath: Wh…why even bother. Sandow was in the Dog House even after the fan support. He’s became a running joke in 2014 before adoptive the Mizdow gimmick thank to the Miz. He was greatly support and have many tease of his backstabber Miz. This happen on Wrestlemania 31 when the two was in the Andre the Giant Battle Royale (Which was on the FREAKING PRE-SHOW, which SANDOW DIDN’T EVEN WIN! >: He would later lost his own Mizdow gimmick before joining Axelmania as Macho Mandow, which ending quickly fast thank to Hulk Hogan’s Racist Comment, and 2016…he’s gone. One of the most tragic way a superstar world fall…he need a hug. :(

12: Sheamus
Match: Roman Regins vs Randy Orton vs Dolph Zigglers vs Sheamus vs Neville vs Kofi Kingston vs Kane (Money in the Bank 2014)

A good match with a disappointment end. The biggest part being the near climax, where Bray Wyatt cost Roman Regins the chance to win the briefcase. Out all of all the chosen, there way with Sheamus retrieving the briefcase. Honestly, I miss he won the International Champion from that lame Elimination Chamber than this.

Cash In: Sheamus cashed in the Money in the Bank against Roman Regins after winning the Tournament for the vacate WWE Championship in the finale with Dean Ambrose. :l

Aftermath: Do even fucking care. He pretty not do that much with the World title, even if Seth Rollins got injured and vacate the belt. His belt the title until the day after TLC, where Roman Regins rightness won the title with his job on the life. Sheamus, man, what the fuck. There were times where I forgot that he even held the briefcase because he was very boring character on the mic and in the ring with his whole "Are you not entertained" catchphrase down our throats.

11: Jack Swagger
Match: Dolph Ziggler vs. Evan Bourne vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Kane vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Christian vs. Matt Hardy vs. Jack Swagger vs. MVP vs. Drew McIntyre (WrestleMania 26)

Participants flooded the last MITB ladder match to take place at a WrestleMania event, capping off a run of unique and highly anticipated matches at the “Showcase of The Immortals. The match wasn’t that long, with some memorable scene being Kingston’s stilt spot. Matt Hardy was a cool inclusion in his last few MITB, while Kane showed how valuable he could be in these wars. In the end, Jack Swagger would win the title thou it’s freaking took forever to unhook the briefcase.

Cash In: Two days later, on Smackdown, Swagger cashed in to defeat an injured Chris Jericho for the World Heavyweight Championship after Edge attack him. I would have gain heel points if Edge won the title instead of Jericho, but bragger can’t be chooser.

Aftermath: As someone who see Jack Swagger underrated, his title was bad. With Swagger being treated as a mid-carder (Which I wouldn’t be shocked since the only time the World Champion was the main evert only both Elimination Chamber and Hell in the Cell) before dropping it to Rey Mysterio at Fatal-4-Way. Afterword, Swagger never got his big pushed since then.

10: Alberto Del Rio
Match: Alberto Del Rio vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Jack Swagger vs. Evan Bourne vs. R-Truth vs. Alex Riley vs. The Miz vs. Rey Mysterio (Money in the Bank 2011 (WWE Championship))

Honestly, one of more forgettable Money in the Bank. There were a few good moments, but there was nothing truly dazzling about this contest for it to stand beside to SmackDown or last year MiTB. Aside from his previous accomplishments, Rey Mysterio would participate in his first MITB, and honest act like a whipping boy for the majority of this contest. Believe it or not, he was booed when he stopped Miz from glory as the latter returned from injury and was on the cusp of clinching the briefcase. Del Rio won the match via Botch Finished.

Cash In: Alberto Del Rio cashed into to win the championship from CM Punk after he united both his title and John’s title at Summerslam 2011. I would gave two shit if the ruined the Summer of Punk along with Kevin Nash getting invasion.

Aftermath: This…was a big mess. Dei Rio held the title until Night of Champion which he lost it to John Cena, won it back at Hell in the Cell against both John Cena and CM Punk, and finally drop it for good at Survivor Series against CM Punk. It’s honestly make me question why Dei Rio would push too hard with the Money in the Bank win and the Royal Rumble Win. Then again, Del Rio is doing good in the WWE, same after his infamous release on 2014.

9: Kane
Match: Christian vs. Matt Hardy vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Kane vs. Big Show (Money in the Bank 2010 (World Heavyweight Championship))

The roster for this contest fell into diverse weight classes, which could be a problem at times. This installment wasn’t too bad, apart from Big Show’s inability to get the gigantic ladder into the ring, which felt like an eternity. Kane would walk away victorious for the first and only time in six appearances.

Cash In: On that stay night, Kane cashed in his briefcase on Rey Mysterio after his retain his title bu Jack Swagger. The first happen that really that in Money in the Bank.

Aftermath: Kane would honestly not have a break with the World Champion. His feud with the Undertaker is confused, just being a train wreck of Kane getting revenge on Taker with the whole coma storyline, made even worse with the Nexus getting involved. This is made even worse with his feud with Edge, where Edge decide to abuse Paul Bearer because why not during for a title spot. This would led to Edge beating Kane at TLC in a Fatal-4-Way, involved Rey Mysterio and Alberto Del Rio. Kane man…no wonder why him hold the WWE Champ win for one day!

8: The Miz
Match: Randy Orton vs. Mark Henry vs. Ted DiBiase Jr. vs. John Morrison vs. Chris Jericho vs. Evan Bourne vs. Edge (Money In The Bank 2010 (WWE Championship) Evan Bourne showed how special he was in high-risk matches, while Randy Orton proved to be a good fit, which could be an indication to what we see from him in a week. With that said, this was your standard MITB ladder match with nothing all that mesmerizing, besides The Miz winning in his first ever MITB appearance.

Cash In: Miz ended up cashing in on Randy Orton after getting attack by the Nexus and after his match with Wade Barnett, where his awesome heel reign as champion begin.

Afterword: Miz is one of the most underrated champion. Have the booking favor him the most and not John Cena, Miz was have be one of the greatest heel of all time. Now he’s just hanging in the mid-carder, winning IC Champion left and right. Needless to say, Mike Mizanin is awesome. This is why Tough Enough in 2004 is the best.

7: Dolph Zigglers
Match: Dolph Ziggler vs. Damian Sandow vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Christian vs. Tyson Kidd vs. Santino Marella vs. Tensai vs. Sin Cara (Money In The Bank 2012 (World Heavyweight Championship)) ith the exclusion of Tensai, this looked like a true Cruiserweight MITB ladder match. It turned out to be one of the best, with great work rates from all involved. The action was non-stop, complete with ladders galore and entertaining sequences. Of course, Dolph Zigglers come in on top by winning the briefcase.

Cash In: Zigglers held the briefcase until the night after WrestleMania 29, where he cash it in on Alberto Del Rio’s World Heavyweight Championship after his match with Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter. The biggest shock is that Zigglers was a heel and yet, everyone love him. :3

Aftermath: Dolph Zigglers’s Regin was good, but suffer a lot of stamina. Zigglers got injured by Jack Swagger and later, sadly lose it against Dei Rio at Payback. Ziggler maybe got his spotlight at 2014, he main problem as to why he never got a world title spot is because he’s a freaking good solder. No joking. Hard to say if I want Dolph Ziggler would stay if he stop trying to copy HBK.

6: Randy Orton
Match: Daniel Bryan vs. CM Punk vs. Randy Orton vs, Rob Van Dam vs. Sheamus vs. Christian (Money In the Bank 2013 (WWE Championship))

The second of two MITB ladder matches at Money In The Bank 2013 served as the headliner, arguably being the most stacked one yet featuring a group of former world champions. Rob Van Dam made his return to a big ovation in Philly, and alongside Bryan, were the two wrestlers the crowd was rooting for. Christian, on the other hand, was making his sixth MITB appearance, coming up short in every one. CM Punk had a chance to increase his lead as the winningest MITB participant with three victories, but his manager at the time, Paul Heyman, turned on him and cost him the victory. Randy Orton ended up being lucky by winning the briefcase.

Cash In: In one of most shocking turn of evert, Randy Orton cash in it on Summerslam, where Triple H turn on Daniel Bryan after he finally won the big one against John Cena. Randy Orton and Triple H single handed crushed Daniel Bryan’s dream and form the Authority.

Aftermath: Not counting the time Orton lost the title at Night of Champion by Daniel Bryan, later got it vacate and win it back at Hell in the Cell, Orton’s reign would one of most better one, even manage to untied his WWE Title with Cena’s World Title on TLC. And hey, I get WWE Points, at least he lost it to Daniel Bryan on Wrestlemania XXX instead of Batista.

5: Daniel Bryan
Match: Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus vs. Sin Cara vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Wade Barrett vs. Justin Gabriel vs. Kane vs. Heath Slater (Money In The Bank 2011 (World Heavyweight Championship))

Opening up the card in the Allstate Arena, the SmackDown MITB ladder match set the tone for one of the WWE’s best pay-per-view events of all-time. Taking place right before the dissolution of the Nexus, a babyface Bryan stood above the rest in one of his best performances. He and Justin Gabriel were very significant for this battle. The match was good, albeit a little along, mostly due to Sin Cara getting injured. :l In the end, the underdog Daniel Bryan finally did it and won the briefcase. :3

Cash In: Daniel Bryan is the only winner to have to cash-in his briefcase twice, as his first attempt was nullified by Teddy Long, who claimed Mark Henry (the then-champion) wasn’t fit for competition. He tried again at TLC 2011 and defeated Big Show for the title after his Chair Match against Mark Henry.

Aftermath: Daniel’s Title Spot was one of the most better one for the World Heavyweight Championship. This is especially because Daniel Bryan is a very talent wrestler. Even dawning a Heel Turn during his reign. This is, until WWE decide to fuck Bryan over at WM28, where Sheamus beat him under 18 SECONDS! >:(

4: CM Punk (Twice)
Matches: Chris Jericho vs. CM Punk vs. John Morrison vs. Mr. Kennedy vs. MVP vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Carlito (WrestleMania XXIV)

CM Punk vs. Christian vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Kane vs. Mark Henry vs. MVP vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Finlay (WrestleMania XXV)

Hard to explain both in detailed but to put it short, CM Punk won both Money in the Bank briefcase match on both years.

Cash In: 2008, CM Punk cashes it in on Raw against Edge to win his World Heavyweight Championship after he was attack by Batisita.

2009, CM Punk would cashed in it on Jeff Hardy after his Ladder Match with Edge.

Aftermath: 2008: His regins was mostly lacking and weird after seeing it. Then again, have Jeff never got suspension, we would have a different story. Punk didn’t even lose the champ right, losing it to Chris Jericho as his replacement on Unforgiven in a Scramble Match due to Randy Orton attacking him.

2009: His reigns is more better thank to being on Smackdown than on Raw. His main feud with Jeff Hardy was one of the best and a “somewhat” sendoff to Jeff Hardy. Of course, Punk still suffer after he feud with the Undertaker.

Punk maybe have a not-so-good luck with his title reigns, winning both briefcase back to back is enough say.

3: Rob Van Dam
Match: Rob Van Dam vs. Ric Flair vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Finlay vs. Matt Hardy (WrestleMania 22)

ECW legend Rob Van Dam was 2-0 at WrestleMania going in, making his MITB win that much sweeter. His win was written in the stars, with the Chicago crowd more than happy to see him come out on top. It also showed how unappreciated Shelton Benjamin was as a performer, excelling as the superstar to watch every time he participated. Thou you’re got to fucking wonder how Ric Flair could still take two bumps off the ladder at his age and look great doing so, or why on earth the bookers would put him in there.

Cash In: RVD would then cash in his briefcase at ECW One Night Stand, where he’d defeat John Cena in front of a raucous crowd with the help of Edge and Paul Haymen.

Aftermath: RVD led a path of ECW Revived along with the many ECW Superstars before it’s lost it way. Van Dam was also revived with the ECW Championship thank to Paul Hayman. Have RVD never got turn over, we to have even a better reigns with both reigns.

2: Edge
Match: Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Edge vs. Kane vs. Christian (WrestleMania 21)

The first still stands as the best, considering this gimmick match was almost guaranteed to impress. WrestleMania went Hollywood in 2005 and so did this type of clash. The Canadians delivered, Benjamin made his presence felt, and Kane was his old self in tormenting his opposition. There were glimpses of the Edge & Christian tandem coming together, as well as bloodshed for Chris Benoit when his stitches busted open. Edge, who would become known as the “ultimate opportunist manage to win the briefcase for the first time.

Cash In: In one of the most best cashed in ever made, Vince McMahon announced Edge cashing in his Briefcase on John Cena after his Elimination Chamber match on New Years’s Revolution. Edge spear John Cena twice to win his first World Championship.

Aftermath: Sadly, one of the biggest drawback for Edge’s Title Reign. It’s was short live after Cena won it back on the Royal Rumble and never got it back until Edge won it back against RVD. Then again, since Edge is a Hall of Famer…I can we got a good superstars. :3

1: Seth Rollins
Match: Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Rob Van Dam vs. Jack Swagger (Money In The Bank 2014)

This is what started it all off for the architect of The Shield, successfully cashing in the briefcase at WrestleMania 31 earlier this year. It didn’t come easy, as Rollins took one of the most infamous MITB bumps when he was tossed off the ladder onto one held up by the ropes. Dolph Ziggler was the crowd favorite at a time where he was one of the hottest stars in the promotion, despite his booking woes. The crowd was pulling for him, but Rollins ended up picking up the title with some assistance from Kane.

Cash In: Seth Rollins out of nowhere decide to cash in his briefcase on not only during the whole Lesnar Regins match, but manage to also cashed it in on Wrestlemania itself, no less on the main evert. What a guy. :3

Aftermath: Seth Rollins did his best to hold the title for a amount of month, managing to face every superstars against his way. While there are the flaws on Rollins’s Reigns, mainly due to John Cena, it’s still good for Rollins’s Big push as a Good Heel Main Everter. A True Championship to didn’t even lose his title in the right way, Seth Rollins is one of the best Money in the Bank Holder to date.
