5 WWE superstars who have never competed in the MITB ladder match

#4 Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar was never a great fit to appear in a MITB match.

Like The Undertaker, Brock Lesnar is an incredibly well-established star and one who was already made as a main eventer before the original Money in the Bank briefcase was introduced.

On top of not needing the Money in the Bank title opportunity, though, Lesnar’s ethos also doesn’t fit so well with a multi-man ladder match. He’s a real-life athletic monster who has thrived in mixed martial arts. Putting him in a match for which the goal is to climb a ladder and grab a briefcase suspended above the ring belies his serious, deeply credible tone as a wrestling star, and makes him an awkward fit for the Money in the Bank brand.

Lesnar was the victim of a cash-in once, and arguably one of the best cash-ins of all time. At WrestleMania 31, Seth Rollins used his MITB opportunity to become the first man to cash-in mid-match, let alone to do so in a WrestleMania main event. He transformed Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns into a Triple Threat and proceeded to pin Reigns to take the title.
