10 Best WWE Pay-Per-Views Of The Past Decade
6. Money In The Bank 2013
No Pay-Per-View event in WWE's library is as safe a bet to deliver the goods as Money in the Bank. The titular multi-man ladder matches are almost always excellent, and that's usually enough to make the show a thumbs up. 2013's edition, though, was even better than a typical MITB card.
The two ladder matches - one for a contract for a World Heavyweight Title shot, the other for a contract for a bout for the WWE Title - both had interesting setups. The World Heavyweight Title bout, which opened the show, consisted entirely of heels. Though many expected U.S. Champion Dean Ambrose to walk away the winner, Damien Sandow retrieved the briefcase, defeating Ambrose, Jack Swagger, Cesaro, Fandango, Wade Barrett, and best friend Cody Rhodes to reign supreme.
The main event of the show was the MITB match for a WWE Championship shot, and it was comprised entirely of former world champions. Daniel Bryan, CM Punk, Sheamus, Randy Orton, Christian, and the returning Rob Van Dam all battled in one of the best Money in the Bank matches ever - a bout that saw Paul Heyman turn on Punk, Sheamus suffer a shoulder injury, and Randy Orton capture the case.
Those bouts, plus an undercard filled with solid matches, made for a true winner of a show.
