There’s no denying that it’s always an exciting moment when someone cashes in a Money in the Bank contract. Edge was the first to do it when he cashed in on John Cena, and Seth Rollins had one of the more memorable cash ins when he hijacked the WrestleMania 31 main event and walked out with the WWE Championship.
Dolph Ziggler knows what it’s like to cash in Money in the Bank and win gold as he defeated Alberto Del Rio to become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion the day after WrestleMania 29. Ziggler didn’t exactly have momentum on his side going into the cash in, but he recently explained to Chris Van Vliet that he thinks his lack of momentum at the time made his cash in better.
“A bunch of people make other arguments, but here’s why mine’s different than if you want to say Seth’s at WrestleMania, or like the first ever one or whatever. I mean, the first one was pretty cool. I didn’t understand the idea, it was Edge, right? And Vince is there and like, it’s, whoa, you know.
But here’s why mine is better, because of what I just said. I lost every single match. Vickie talked for me, I got Vickie, and then we go on to AJ and Big E. So I now have a group of three. And I’m losing every single match, except for the ladder match, which was so fun. There’s a great gif of Tensai throwing me into the chairs and I fly around on my head. I win, and I win that and I go how are we going to build on this? Because I can’t just lose 900 matches in a row when this one and then lose 900 in a row again, and the boss goes now you’re gonna lose even more, and not in a devious way, he goes because you have this briefcase, and when that contract gets cashed in, everything is erased. And I go, Okay, that’s a fair point.”
