10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Money In The Bank
7. A Curtis Axel Run-In In The Main Event (2013)
Money in the Bank 2013's main event was a ladder match for the WWE Championship briefcase, and only former world champions were invited. That meant that the match boasted an impressive lineup, featuring Randy Orton, Rob Van Dam, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus, Christian, and CM Punk.
Punk was in a strange position - he came back from a brief absence one month earlier as a babyface, but was still being managed by Paul Heyman. That led to tensions with Heyman's other client, Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel. Punk and Axel found themselves at odds, while Heyman tried to play peacemaker.
During this match, Paul Heyman infamously turned on CM Punk, slamming a ladder on his head and bloodying him. That led to the very good Punk-Brock Lesnar feud, then the not-so-good Punk-Ryback feud. Still, Heyman's opening salvo was memorable.
Less memorable was the fact that Axel ran in on the match - the main event of the show, remember - to attack Punk before the Heyman turn. Given Axel's position on the card now, it's a bit embarrassing that he once did a run-in on a Pay-Per-View main event.
