7 Reasons Why WWE Money In The Bank 2011 Won't Be Topped

This year's Money in the Bank PPV will be the fifth year that WWE has run a PPV based off the Money in the Bank ladder match. From 2005 to 2010 the match was done at WrestleMania, but it became such a hit that WWE felt the need to build an entire show around the match concept. It was a smart move by WWE because Money in the Bank has proven to be one of WWE's best PPVs of the year. It probably trails only WrestleMania, Royal Rumble and SummerSlam in terms of importance. Survivor Series may be older, but it's not a big deal anymore. Money in the Bank is. The 2011 edition of Money in the Bank was one of the best WWE PPVs ever. In fact, when I did a listing of the top 20 PPVs ever back in February I listed it as the 3rd best PPV ever behind only WrestleManias 17 and 19. In other words, it's the best non-WrestleMania show that WWE has ever done. What made it such a special show that won't be topped any time soon? It was a six match card over the course of three hours. Most regular PPVs have seven or eight matches. Having "only" six matches felt right because there were three of them that went really long and that helped them become more memorable. Five of the six matches will be discussed here with only Kelly Kelly vs. Brie Bella left off because it was pretty forgettable. Here are seven reasons why Money in the Bank 2011 was one of the best shows in WWE history.
