WrestleMania 24 saw Punk gain a shock win in the 7-man ladder match and win his first Money In The Bank Briefcase. He ran around ECW for few months looking like he had no intention of cashing in anytime soon. That all changed the night he was traded to Raw, as apart of the 2008 Lottery Draft.

Current World Heavyweight Champion Edge had just been laid out in the ring by an enraged Batista. Cue Punk's music, running from the back with a referee in tow. As Edge slowly staggered to his feet, the fans erupted to their's in thunderous applause as Punk handed the briefcase in and the bell rung. A swift Go To Sleep was all it took for Punk to get the pin and win his first World Title.

While the title reign might have ended unceremoniously, after Punk was forced to forfeit the title after an attack from Randy Orton. The moment that he won his first World Title will be remembered and cherished by CM Punk fans forever.
