10 best Championship matches in Money In The Bank history

CM Punk's title win from MITB, 2011 is regarded as one of the best title wins of all time

#6. Alberto Del Rio vs Dolph Ziggler (World Heavyweight Championship) - Money In The Bank, 2013

Another amazing contest for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, as both Ziggler and Del Rio, went at it right from the get-go.

Ziggler, who initially cashed in his MITB contract on Del Rio to win the World Heavyweight Title, eventually found himself the challenger’s seat as he headed into this match looking to regain the World Title yet again.

This match was arguably far better than Ziggler and Del Rio’s previous clash at Payback and despite a slow start early on, the match itself had some brilliant and notable exchanges between both men who picked up the pace of the contest as it gradually progressed.

AJ Lee’s last-minute interference was the icing on the cake to his brilliant match, as the then-Divas Champion made her way down to the ring and hit Del Rio with her title belt to cost Ziggler the match via DQ, making the entire stuff much more believable.
