5 WWE Money In The Bank Babyfaces Who Cashed In Like Heels

5. Bayley

Remember when Bayley was the hottest babyface in wrestling? This actually happened years after the fact.

When Bayley cashed in on Charlotte (the only wrestler to have been cashed in on by three separate wrestlers, fact fans) in 2019, she was suffering the effects of two years of horrendous booking. The defiant underdog of NXT had been transformed into an ineffectual wimp on the main roster, resulting in increasing crowd indifference to the original (and best) Role Model.

Right up until this moment. (5:34 in the above video).

To give some context, Charlotte had just beaten Becky Lynch for the Smackdown Championship and was continuing the beatdown after the match. In the ensuing scuffle, Charlotte concussed herself on the ring post and Bayley took advantage, pinning the Queen after using her MitB advantage.

Pinning an opponent who had already fought that night is hardly typical Role Model behaviour, but the crowd couldn't have cared less. Sick of seeing WWE creative run roughshod over Bayley, the WWE Universe (apologies for the McMahonism) urged her to seize the opportunity and pick up a much-needed win.

The crowd's ecstatic reaction to Bayley's victory showed that, if Bayley does indeed become a babyface again when she returns from injury, the crowd will be more than happy to cheer for the former Hugger.
