WWE: Top 5 Money in the Bank moments

1. ‘Summer of Punk’ storyline

In 2011, the biggest story of the year was one which involved a certain CM Punk, as reports surfaced during WrestleMania time that Punk might soon be on his way out of the company. Punk voiced his opinions about the company and his dislike for the direction they were going in.

This resulted in a match at the Money in the Bank PPV in his hometown which saw Punk winning the WWE title and leaving the company (kayfabe) with it. Although the storyline ended abruptly, it gave the fans a chance to enjoy the product once again, and ushered a change in the company, which saw Ryder, Bryan, the team of Air Bourne and Beth Phoenix winning titles and being at the top of their respective divisions.
