And that dude had a pretty good “oh really” comeback, posting a picture he had with the McMahons from a Tribute to the Troops show. Corbin immediately broke character and apologized, but it was a definite yikes moment.

Edge is the real OG of Money in the Bank concept. He was the first ever winner and his un-announced cash in on Cena at New Year's Revolution made him the Ultimate Opportunist. Following year he interfered in the RVD vs Cena match at One Night stand to stick it to Cena again. He then went on to steal another World title next year by cashing in on a beaten up Undertaker. The tables turned the year after where he was on the receiving end of CM Punk's first cash-in for the World title. And last, the year after CM Punk again cashed in on Jeff Hardy who had just won the title minutes prior in a Ladders match against who else, Edge. So for the first five years, it was literally Edge who was involved in the outcome of the MITB in some capacity.

@@bigfudge2031 it was definitely in line with Ambrose’s character, though. He never got his revenge on Rollins until this moment. As a fan of all three I loved it. He won it in his home town (he moved to Vegas before this event), and we got the historic moment of all three holding the title the same night. It might seem forced to some, but they said that was a special moment for all three of them. Ambrose deserved it more than Rollins, too. Both storyline and real life he kept getting screwed over by the brass. All this made for a great moment that I think personally is better than Bayley’s cash in.

[@SpiritxEnigma]

It was way better than Bayley’s cash-in. He was so eager to be champion & inflict karma on Seth, he just couldn’t wait another night. He was red hot that year too. I remember when people were wanting him to win the Rumble & even Adam fantasy booked him to beat Triple H at WM32.

Yeah Money in the Bank works the same as the Royal Rumble, King of the Ring or even Elimination Chamber. If its got an ongoing story between some/all of the participants, great, but its effectively a multi-person number-one contenders match so it doesn't need much backstory. These 6,8 or even 30 participants want a title shot, they have to fight in a grueling ladder/cage/battle royal/tournament to earn it. Simple.

Hopefully to a young, charismatic full time star who connects with the fans and is credible enough to dethrone the trible chief. So basically nobody on the current roster is ready to do it😐

[@keshavbhargavbakshi]

@@JungleBunkRootsMusic2022 I think the top two contenders for him currently are Big E or Keith Lee.

[@SpiritxEnigma]

@@JungleBunkRootsMusic2022 Right, nobody is ready. Big E has the potential but they have barely done him any favors. I get he shouldn’t drop the New Day stuff entirely, but he needs to up the intensity like that time he cut that serious promo on The Usos. Keith Lee has the potential as well. I always go back to that 2019 Men’s SSeries match ending with Roman. However he’s disappeared from TV entirely which has killed his momentum. We have no info either. They could be wanting him to lose weight or he could have something serious like cancer, god forbid. It also doesn’t help that he’s getting up there in age. I feel like the person who beats Roman needs to be someone WWE is gonna invest in long-term. I honestly hope the stars align & we get another *white* hot guy with WM30 Bryan-level momentum to dethrone Roman instead of a *red* hot flavor of the year like Rollins in 2019. However at this point, they’d be lucky to even get that considering they’re not doing themselves any favors when it comes to building new stars.

[@JungleBunkRootsMusic2022]

@@SpiritxEnigma Exactly. Wwe have done a great job building up roman as the supreme villain but they've done a poor job of building up a conquering hero. Whoever beats roman should be the guy who carries the wwe for years to come, like cena beating jbl at wm21. Unfortunately they haven't got that babyface who's popular enough and credible enough to do it. Big e has been kept in the midcard, keith lee is MIA, drew has lost all momentum, cesaro is probably destined to be an upper midcarder and edge doesnt need the honour at all. The last mega babyface they had was bryan in 2014(not counting cena since he was pretty polarising).

[@luislima3476]

Roman is the perfect heel to capitalize an ultimate underdog babyface story with Sami Zayn

[@niiniiniinii5936]

4:44 audible sigh 😢 Adams script writing and Sundays, I love it

[@muse6815]

I still stand by this, Cena was never meant to win that briefcase. He always looked actually surprised that he won, the handle breaking, him being the first failed cash in... It all makes me think an accident happened and WWE quickly corrected course. This is my head cannon, thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

[@gregfisher7345]

I was in the crowd at Barons failed cash in.... I was so upset lmao. I have a video somewhere of me recording it and you can hear my excitement go to pure disappointment 🤣

[@sagargangwani4567]

Sheer amount of emotions this guy brings to even the most expected list. It's unfathomable. All hail plumpy

[@daltonriser1125]

This is a classic format that works for a reason 5 best 5 worst is a good style Although next time I would stsrt with worst that way you can end on best 1 and end on a massive high

[@CallMeVanEl]

I wouldn't necessarily call Asuka a cashin or "being handed the title" the match was for the briefcase, which Asuka fought and got. It just turned out the briefcase had the title in it. Otherwise, they'd have had to vacate the title because Becky was leaving. It's not too different from it being a ladder match no? The surprise and emotion was pretty heartwarming.

[@acecashman1237]

Right

[@playmaker4700]

Still suck

[@KEVIN-vd3qe]

8:10 I forgot that Dolph was already champion when Vickie said "Well, you're champ now" and Teddy said "nah" EDIT : I also forgot that Corbin was Mr. MITB

[@frontful5698]

Michael Cole saying "The Heist of the Century!" will always be one of my favorite lines in WWE history

[@JaimeD.]

*RONALD VAN DONALD* lol 😂 Dang it, Adam! STOP making me laugh.

[@btf_flotsam478]

"decorating it like Money in the Banksy"

[@michaeltalksanime]

It's almost impressive how petty WWE can be. Corbin got done dirty lol

[@RawPiece98]

This was very refreshing, rather than just having a list of 10, I like this style

[@Zacharyswiftpro]

I was such a huge Corbin fan at this time and that cash-in hurt A LOT. I never knew the backstage stuff until today...

[@subman23]

Asuka *was* fighting for the title, though. She went through an entire MITB match for the briefcase that she had, that Becky told her to open. She earned it, even if we didn't know it was in there at the time. Plus, there is established precedent for an MITB match being for a title

[@playmaker4700]

2020 MITB absolutely suck

[@BBoy4040]

I will never understand how "I lost focus" = "I have no physical strength to kick out"

[@burnthetrolls5971]

Adam thank you for these lists they bring joy to my Gloomy Sundays

[@j.c-youlater]

I still hold Edge's cash in very close to Rollins. It was unexpected, we've never seen anything like it and it was the thing that catapulted Edge straight into the main event (as well as the Matt and Lita stuff).

[@jammo1031]

I do enjoy the 5 best and 5 worst back and forth in the video it's a nice change

[@kev_whatev]

MitB ‘19 was dope from start to finish. Bayley win, Bayley cash-in, Rollins vs AJ then Kofi vs KO in back to back bangers, and then that incredible MitB match! People hate on the Brock run-in now, but I was 5 rows behind the announce table, and the pop was deafening when his music hit.

[@sidharthsingh6558]

"Ronald Van Donald" decorating it like "Money in the Banksy"....Ah PFK...Chef's kiss on the wordplay.

[@riotd.r.8363]

I believe the Asuka/Becky briefcase thing was supposed to have been a switch between the contract and the belt i.e. Asuka won the title at the Money on the Roof match, not a contract.

[@Deltastar21]

But if that's the case, why not just make it a ladder match for the title, it wasted the money in the bank for the women

[@Surv1vor1993]

I like this style of list for the “Best and Worst X in history” and would love to see these lists for stuff like Money in the Bank, Royal Rumble Moments and stuff like that

[@evanstokes1947]

These lists are cool too. A mix of straight tens and five/five would be nice

[@ayyobear9551]

I was at the New Years Revolution that Edge cashed his in, post-elmination chamber, and pinned Cena. I'll never forget the feeling when Edge's music hit and the crowd all realized what was happening. Epic.

[@Lefuhq3]

Big booty Bayley's cash in was amazing ngl I popped and all my friends thought I was crazy cuz they could care less about women's division 😂. Also zigglers cash in shouldve been first. It was just perfect and he more than he deserved the moment. I cried when he lost his ic title to Goldberg cuz we all know deep down Ziggler should be a main eventer and a multiple time world champion.

[@SShadyJess]

I've seen a lot of people who didn't like how Lynch just gave Asuka the title, but I've not heard any good alternatives. Lynch couldn't wrestle because she was pregnant, vacating the title with MitB in play seems like a strange move, so what could they have done?

[@user-hm4tt9hy5f]

I'm surprised Punk's first win is absent. I know someone that was there and he told me that crowd went crazy when he pinned Edge. Also, IIRC Jinder beating Baron was his only clean victory as WWE champion

[@Deltastar21]

It was a distracted finish so not really clean

[@antoniocenteno1483]

Adam: Would you like this 5/5 or straight 10 lists? We: Just do your thing man, WE WILL LOVE IT

[@bnorris771]

I was at Money in the Bank 2017 in St. Louis. And while the event itself was fun, that was the show that had Ellsworth win the briefcase, Lana’s debut, New Day and Usos having a great match which ended in count out, Mike and Maria debut, Jinder beating Randy AGAIN, the Corbin win, and my personal favorite...I sat next to a very bored mother of two who took a phone call saying she couldn’t talk because she was watching “Wrestlemania or something.” What a night.

[@ChristopherMarsh]

Also Seth's cash in at mania was the last great men's mitb cash in

[@ONLY_RR7]

What about Dean’s?

[@lowkeyloki4147]

Bayley's cash in happened in 2019

[@ariklion37]

Deans cash in is underrated for me it is the best same day cash in better than Bayle's imo

[@KingofKarnies]

I've never liked Brock, but that Brockbox schtick was sublime.

[@geekmac9349]

the 5&5 format is perfect for topics where you can't find 10 reasonable entries for either side. If it's a bigger topic where you can though then I'd personally prefer doing 2 top 10 lists

[@marybonner7432]

I don't know if I'd put asuka as the worst. Yes, giving someone a title is a bit of cop out but it was unique and I cried... Like a baby. 😢
