2. Sheamus Powerbombs Sin Cara (Money In The Bank 2011)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCHiaBNWfPo Money in the Bank 2011 is famous for one thing. THAT CM Punk win over John Cena. We all remember that, right? But in SmackDown's Money in the Bank ladder match for a World Heavyweight Championship match contract earlier in the night, Sheamus gave us another unforgettable moment. The 'original' Sin Cara (remember him, named Mistico?) had cleaned house with a variation of flying and innovative moves, but Sheamus is known to overcome the fancy stuff with sheer, brute force. That's what happened here. Sin Cara's momentum was brought to a crashing end with a Brogue Kick, and Sheamus fancied entertaining us a little more in the aftermath. Waiting was a ladder sat horizontally, resting on the barricade outside and the edge of the ring. And the big Irishman's eyes lit up at the possibility of destruction. What followed was a scary looking powerbomb from off the apron, with the Mexican's small frame thrown with full force down through the ladder below. The bump brought about one heck of a gasp from people watching on, wondering if Sin Cara would come out the other side without any bodily damage. Turns out the damage he'd been doing was to himself - after the match it was revealed Sin Cara had failed WWE's Wellness Policy. Maybe this was a little lesson...
