Top 5 CM Punk Money in the Bank moments 

#3 CM Punk wins his first Money in the Bank briefcase

CM Punk at a WWE live event

WrestleMania XXIV can arguably take credit for creating the legend of CM Punk. This was the first major WrestleMania moment in a Hall of Fame worthy career.

It was at the vaunted Super Bowl of Wrestling where CM Punk survived six other competitors including future Hall of Famer and nemesis, Chris Jericho.

Despite facing seemingly insurmountable odds, Punk would go on to capture his very first Money in the Bank briefcase.

Although the post-show accolades went to the likes of Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair, Big Show, Floyd Mayweather, Edge, and The Undertaker, Punk was reborn anew at the event.

The metamorphosis was complete. Punk was no longer just an indie darling beloved by a fringe fan base, but a serious WWE Championship contender.
