While Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns were steam-rolling their way to the top of WWE, their Shield brother Dean Ambrose was trying to find his way to the top too.

In 2016, Ambrose won the Money in the Bank contract and held it for just 57 minutes before deciding to cash it in on Rollins later in the night. Rollins was fresh off a 26-minute contest against The Big Bog where he managed to retain his WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Ambrose arrived right after Rollins’ victory, attacked him from behind with the briefcase, and hit him with the Dirty Deeds to win the match and the title in just nine seconds.

Talking to 98.5 The Sports Hub after the event, The Lunatic Fringe told the bizarre story of why he did not even wait an hour before cashing in:

“Here’s the thing: I’m prone to losing things. I lose my keys and my sunglasses and my hat, I’ll lose my shoes. I lose everything. So the thought of carrying that briefcase around for a year, in the airport and going from hotel to hotel and building to building carrying around that ridiculous briefcase, I was like, ‘I’m gonna lose this thing. There’s no way I’m going to be able to keep track of this friggin thing for six months or a year, let’s just get to it tonight and let’s get this sucker out of my hands and get something else in my hands.'”

Ambrose now performs for All Elite Wrestling (AEW) as Jon Moxley, and his MITB and WWE World Heavyweight Championship victory on the same night in 2016 was one of the high points of his career.
