2012 was the year I was winning it, and that changed hours before showtime. One of those “unanswered prayers” moments though.That hardship shaped the prickly psycho I’ve become today ha. Another good memory. https://t.co/nOIDUhMtyK
One of the greatest Money in the Bank cash-ins of all time came back in 2013 when Dolph Ziggler was able to become World Champion.
It's interesting to note that this may not have happened if WWE had followed through on their original plan to have Cody Rhodes win the 2012 Money in the Bank ladder match.
Rhodes revealed these plans in a post on Twitter back in 2020. He also confirmed that the result of the match was changed just hours before the show started.

The following year, Rhodes was embroiled in a storyline following Money in the Bank after his tag team partner Damien Sandow was chosen as the winner of the match. This led to a feud between the two men where Rhodes went on to throw the contract into the Gulf of Mexico.
Sandow did eventually cash-in on John Cena and became one of very few WWE Superstars who failed to win when using their Money in the Bank contracts.
