At this year's Elimination Chamber pay-per-view on February 21, The Miz shocked the world by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on the WWE Champion Drew McIntyre.

After retaining his Championship against five other WWE Superstars inside the chamber, Drew McIntyre was completely defenseless. As soon as the chamber structure lifted above the ring, McIntyre was mercilessly assaulted by a frustrated Bobby Lashley. The Miz used this opportunity to cash in his briefcase. The A-Lister managed to make a quick work of an already battered champion. McIntyre was pinned after a devastating Skull Crushing Finale.

The title change struck like a bolt from the blue to WWE Universe. Nobody expected The Miz to re-enter the title picture like this, especially not when Drew McIntyre was enjoying a dominant run. The Miz relished the heist that he had managed to pull off and gloat about it to the WWE Universe.

Unfortunately for The Miz, the title reign would last only eight days as he lost the title to Bobby Lashley on the March 1 episode of RAW.
