Looking Back at Kane's Money in the Bank Cash-In

Let's look back at Kane's surprise Money in the Bank win at the inaugural Money in the Bank pay per view in 2010. The Big Red Machine not only secured the coveted briefcase but went on to cash it in on the same night, creating a moment that still resonates with fans to this day.

Kane's journey to the briefcase was a testament to his enduring resilience and dominance. Competing against some of WWE’s most formidable superstars, he showcased his unmatched strength and tactical prowess. As the dust settled and Kane stood tall atop the ladder, clutching the briefcase, the arena buzzed with anticipation. Little did anyone know, the night was far from over.

Later that evening, Rey Mysterio successfully defended his World Heavyweight Championship against Jack Swagger, but his victory was short-lived. As Mysterio celebrated, Kane’s music hit, sending shockwaves through the crowd. Seizing the moment, Kane stormed to the ring, briefcase in hand, and capitalized on a vulnerable Mysterio.

In a swift and decisive match, Kane dismantled the exhausted champion, delivering a thunderous chokeslam and a crushing Tombstone Piledriver. The referee's three-count marked not only a new reign for Kane but also a historic first in WWE – the first-ever same-night Money in the Bank cash-in.

Kane’s victory was more than just a title win; it was a career-defining moment that solidified his legacy as one of WWE’s most formidable and strategic competitors. The Big Red Machine’s ability to seize opportunity and dominate in the blink of an eye reminded everyone why he is a true legend in the squared circle.

For fans of ‘The Superkick,’ Kane’s 2010 Money in the Bank triumph and cash-in remain a shining example of the unpredictability and excitement that makes professional wrestling so captivating. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the sport, this historic night is a must-watch and a testament to the drama and thrills that only WWE can deliver.

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years. How they bungled this storyline, I’m not ent

The State of Professional Wrestling - 11-29-21

I have a lot of thoughts on the state of professional wrestling in 2021. I think it’s great that AEW is around now and that they’re presenting a great product. I think WWE has the potential not be really boring but I think the consensus is that most of the time it’s just a really boring show. I cannot tell you the last time I sat through a 3 hour Raw. Oh wait, yes I can. September, 9th, 2013 and that’s only because I was at the damn show. WWE has a problem with stagnation. The product continually feels the same and I think there’s an obvious reason for that. WWE is too scripted. I think there’s a noticeable difference in the presentation between WWE and AEW. AEW feels like a legitimate sports show and WWE feels like broadway theatre without the music. I don’t think it’s a problem with the talent. When you go top-down, guys like Roman Reigns, Big E, Brock Lesnar, Edge, Bobby Lashley, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Finn Balor, Jeff Hardy and Kevin Owens are all main event players.
