Randy Orton won the Money in the Bank contract in 2014, when he overcame every other star who came in front of him during the bout.

The cash in would be in typical Viper fashion taking an opportunity which was handed to him. Daniel Bryan had won the WWE Championship in a match against John Cena. Triple H counted the pinfall before turning on Bryan and laying him out inside the ring.

He called Orton down to the ring, where the Viper cashed in the briefcase, won the Championship and joined with Triple H to form the Authority.

#2 Edge (2006)

The first time that the WWE audience got to see the Money in the Bank briefcase in action, was a special occasion. John Cena had somehow managed to survive an Elimination Chamber match against Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, Carlito, Chris Masters, and Kane. He could barely stand to celebrate when Vince McMahon came out to announce that Edge would be cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase.

Edge cashed in successfully and defeated John Cena with a spear, which Cena could not defend himself against. This would set the trend for future cash-ins, as the Money in the Bank contract had never been used before.

#1 Seth Rollins (2015)

Seth Rollins won the Money in the Bank match to a great ovation. After splitting up from Shield, Rollins had been successful. He joined the Authority and was billed as the future of WWE.

The cash in by Rollins was the most epic in proportion as it did what no one else had done before. He used it to cash in at WrestleMania. To add to the intensity, he did not wait till the match between Roman and Brock was over to cash in but cashed it in the middle of the bout to make it a Triple Threat.

Although this appeared to be a bad decision at times, Rollins was able to emerge from the contest as the WWE Champion. Till this date, there has never been a cash-in on such a big scale.
