10 Biggest WWE Money In The Bank Surprises
Returns, cash-ins and improbable winners, oh my!
6. The Next Big Trolljob
The Money in the Bank ladder matches are typically spectacular affairs where, even though there can only be one winner, multiple performers usually come out of them better than they went in, grasping the opportunity to shine in unique surroundings.
Think, for example, of the likes of Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne, who performed in multiple such matches and, while never winning, did things to steal the show and secure their place on the highlight reel for years to come.
2019's inter-brand men's Money in the Bank ladder match was shaping up to be a similar affair, as exciting superstars like Ali, Andrade, Finn Balor and Ricochet dazzled while likely winners Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin did their thing.
Nobody was talking about any of the seven athletes risking life and limb when the show was over, though, because Brock Lesnar sauntered out (as a kayfabe injured Sami Zayn's unnamed replacement), knocked Ali off the rungs and grabbed the prize.
The Beast hadn't been around since losing his own title to Seth Rollins at WrestleMania and, though he was due back any day, his presence here was a shocker.
