4. Rob Van Dam wins the Money in the Bank match at WrestleMania 22

MITB RVD

When WWE came up with the idea of starting a PPV for ECW, their first attempt to test the waters became a huge success. So what did the WWE do? They did yet another “ECW: One Night Stand” PPV, and to make it more memorable, they had to do something that the fans would invest in, and that resulted in RVD getting a legitimate shot at the WWE title after years of toiling in the WWE.

RVD won the second ever Money in the Bank ladder match at WrestleMania, and was the first person to ever schedule a time and a date to cash it in, as he did it at the One Night Stand PPV, and defeated John Cena in what can only be described as a monumental PPV. Although RVD lost the title soon, he won the WWE title for the first time in a ‘home environment’, with all the ECW faithful chanting his name.
