Result: Miz puts Drew away with the Skull Crushing Finale to win the belt (00:30).

Rating: This was always going to piss a lot of people off, but it was at least a smart way to get the title off Drew for the meantime, and an opportunistic Money in the Bank cash-in was nothing if not a totally on-brand way for The Miz to win the WWE Title.

Plus, the guy's been waiting over a decade to get another reign, so it's hard to begrudge him the pleasure too much, short-lived though this will surely be.

Obviously this was little to speak of as a pure wrestling match, but as storytelling it was absolutely fine. It'll be interesting to see what happens between now and WrestleMania, at least. 5/10
