This year's Money in the Bank pay-per-view was different from all the previous editions. Without the WWE Universe on hand, WWE went outside the box and introduced the concept of the corporate ladder. The WWE headquarters was ready to become the battleground of WWE superstars.

The match had many entertaining moments and spots. Some of those moments included AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan brawling in Vince Mcmahon's office and Shayna Baszler locking Rey Mysterio in the Kirifuda Clutch.

After brawling all over the WWE headquarters, Asuka grabbed the briefcase hanging on the rooftop and guaranteed herself a championship opportunity. It was great to see Asuka get rewarded for the brilliant work she did during the pandemic era. However, the biggest surprise of the night was yet to come.

AJ Styles, Aleister Black, and Baron Corbin were favorites to win the men's briefcase. Otis seemingly didn't have any chance to become Mr. Money in the Bank against these Superstars. His comedic gimmick connects with the WWE Universe, but it was uncertain if WWE could present him as a world championship contender.

WWE had other plans in the store as Otis turned the tables on everybody. Then, he grabbed the briefcase that slipped through Styles' hands to become the 2020 Money in the Bank winner. This was a career-defining moment for the young WWE Superstar. What's more, he did so without even climbing the ladder.

Currently, Otis is embroiled in an interesting feud with Miz and Morrison, who are trying their best to take the briefcase off Otis. Although there haven't been any signs of a cash in, fans could see Otis go after either of the world champions once his feud with The Miz culminates.
