Sometimes, the most awesome moments from WWE pay-per-views aren't necessarily the big bumps or nasty falls. On occasion, they're pretty darn real, little glimpses into the people behind the bombastic personas visible on television every week. Characters be damned, Dean Ambrose was showing real emotion as he soaked in his victory.

Perched on top of a well-climbed ladder, Ambrose couldn't contain his excitement or passion upon seizing the Money In The Bank briefcase. At that point, nobody knew what was yet to come on the show, but that would have been irrelevant anyway. Times like this prove just how much Money In The Bank victories can mean to those involved, because they're almost like sure fire tickets to the top of the mountain.

With a glazed look on his face, Ambrose scanned the live crowd and revelled in the moment. Finally, he was the one chosen to snatch that Money In The Bank briefcase and take in what that means to a wrestler's career in WWE.

Storyline and pre-planned or not, it was amazing to see a passionate performer get lost in the moment.
