WWE: Top 5 MitB matches of all time

3. Smackdown! Money in the Bank ladder match – 2011

Daniel Bryan

This is one of my personal favorites. Why? Because it was in many ways the birth of the ‘Yes!’ man, Daniel Bryan.

Starting his career in the independent scene and working his way up the ladder in the literal sense, Daniel Bryan deserved this opportunity more than anyone else.

What made this match even more special? No one saw this coming. I thought it would be Sheamus, as he was on a roll at that point. The match itself involved some of the best workers and high flyers, such as the then newest sensation, Sin Cara, Daniel Bryan, Cody Rhodes, Wade Barrett, Justin Gabriel and Kane. Oh, and Heath Slater was also a part of the match (Shocker!).

The match also saw Cara being drilled through a ladder when Sheamus delivered a huge powerbomb that broke the ladder in half! That was a great spot, and Cara was stretchered out of the arena. The end saw Bryan fending off Barrett and Rhodes at the top of the ladder and retrieving the briefcase, as the Chicago crowd erupted in joy!
