Top 5 successful Money in the Bank Cash-ins of all time

#4 Dolph Ziggler - RAW 8th April 2013

Dolph Ziggler Celebrating his World title win

No, we are not talking about the Dolph Ziggler who has been pushed to glorified jobber status and being is being used to put over the new NXT call-ups. We are talking about the Dolph Ziggler, who as per my opinion, was the most over superstar in Smackdown at the time even though he was being portrayed as a heel.

Dolph Ziggler won the Smackdown Money in the Bank ladder match at the titular pay per view on 15th July 2012. The journey to his cash in was well portrayed. He escaped from unsuccessfully cashing in the contract on the same night against Sheamus. Things got worse for the Show Off when he had to defend the contract twice as he was forced to put it on the line first against Chris Jericho in a Contract vs Career match and against John Cena in a TLC match.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

After going through all the obstacles, he finally cashed in the contract to win the world heavyweight championship, on Alberto Del Rio after the latter's handicap match win against Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter. The reaction was ecstatic as the arena was filled with the thunderous cheers of the WWE universe.

It is highly unlikely that Dolph Ziggler will receive a similar push now, but it is such a shame that a superstar of Ziggler's calibre is being used as an enhancement talent.
