5 most disappointing MITB cash-ins

#5 Alberto Del Rio

This upset a lot of people

Alberto Del Rio started off life in WWE like a house on fire, instantly establishing himself as one of the top heels on SmackDown. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to maintain that momentum and throughout the majority of 2011, he faded into the background after initially challenging for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 27.

But things started to look up after Alberto won the MITB ladder match, with many wondering whether he’d finally live up to his potential. The answer was no, and his cash-in was done as a weak way of ruining the Summer of Punk angle.

Nobody wanted to see him as champion, and his reigns as champion were utterly meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
