8 times WWE championships changed hands without the champion losing

Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 31.

Cena wins after Bryan goes down

John Cena got the nod for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship victory at Money in the Bank in 2014.

Daniel Bryan electrified the pro wrestling world when he became the WWE’s top champion at WrestleMania XXX by first knocking off Triple H and then Randy Orton and Batista. That excitement hit a wall within the next few weeks, though, when a neck injury forced Bryan to forfeit his title.

To crown a new champion, the belts – then carried separately as the WWE Championship and the World Heavyweight title – were put up in a ladder match between John Cena, Roman Reigns, Alberto Del Rio, Kane, Sheamus, Bray Wyatt, Cesaro and Randy Orton. Cena came out on top for another world title reign.
