I kinda agree with you except on this later years: Women's 2020 *SHOULD* have been Shayna Baszler. Vince screwed her at the royal rumble, then at Wrestlemania and look what happended to her. She was a beast in NXT now she can't win a single match. No Shayna should have won the Money in the bank 2020. I also think that Damian Priest was the right choice for 2023, but the rest i agree with you
None of the other participants were over though. Only Balor would have made sense because Rollins was also the Universal champion at the time, so they could have played their last summer's rivalry a few years earlier.
I'm a huge LA Knight fanboy. Having said that, I think Damian needed the briefcase. After losing the US championship, he sort of got lost in the Judgement Day, kinda lost his individual identity. The briefcase really helped him gain that and have something to chew on, and admittedly, not only did he chew, he ate. I'd have loved for LA to have the contract, but I still stand by the fact that Damian was the best choice
Mustapha Ali was actually slated to win that 19’ match. He only found out moments before he went through the curtain. Absolute props to him for being a true professional and hiding what had to be an incredible amount of disdain for that decision. Poor Mustapha had two different terrible instances of luck. Glad to see his success in TNA
@@khesipresents1885 did you read my comment? Ali was slated to win. That means consistent television nearly every week. Guaranteed storylines and more money more exposure more everything. To have that taken away mere mins before you walk out the curtain to someone who isn’t even in the match is a freaking kick in the nuts. Ali was screwed out of that opportunity to potentially change his career going forward. That’s what makes him special
@@sidfactor1710And it wasn't even to give it to another up and coming talent, it was to give it to the guy who was already a made main eventer with multiple historic titles runs
@@sidfactor1710you might be right but from what I remember was that they told everyone Ali was winning just cause they didn’t want the secret of Brock lesnar to get leaked
I remember when Roman won the title at Survivor Series 2015, everyone was mad that Roman was Champion. Then Sheamus cashed in and everyone agreed it was worse than Roman winning lol.
The Money in the Bank cast is so much better this year, last year you had people that really had no chance at it, Escobar, Nakamura, Pete Dunne, Ricochet. This year every single one of the 6 makes sense. LA Knight, Andrade, Jey Uso, Chad Gable, Carmelo and probably Drew. Good to see WWE take this things seriously.
Andrade and Carmelo winning? unlikely and don't have a case. Chad Gable is barred from going after the IC title and I don't see him being even further vaulted when he hasn't won anything yet. Bc if Chad wins this, he'd "have" to go after one of the 2 big titles and he's just not there rn. Jey Uso is fine but he just had a world title shot. If Jey wins, he'd basically be repeating deja vu. I think it should be LA Knight who should've won it last year. If Drew is in the match, I could see possibly CM Punk costing him again (for "taking his spot" since he's known for the MITB, etc). My only issue would be Knight would honestly have to go after the US title since that makes the most sense of where he's at rn, but whatever.
@@apecentury228 I don´t think Andrade or Carmelo are gonna win but they have the potential to be world title contenders, both of em, wich is a lot more than we can say of people like Pete Dunne or Nakamura. Re Gable, he´s one of the biggest stars in WWE right now, to me he´s the best choice, this is the perfect mechanism to elevate him to the next level because he is the whole package. The older Alpha was holding him back, the new Alpha is gonna be the difference maker. Like i said, this card is a lot better than last year´s, sadly is probably Jey who´s going to win, wich i don´t like but understand.
@@apecentury228 he´s going to win the US title and has the problem of being in the same show as Cody Rhodes, i think they´re gonna give it to someone at Raw, i mean just take a look. From Smackdown you have LA, Carmelo and Andrade, from Raw you have Jey, Gable and probably Drew. I´m confident is gonna go to Raw but lets see.
33:18 just swap what Priest and Knight has done ever since. Damien vs AJ vs Randy vs Reigns at RR. Damien either turns face to face a heel AJ or AJ turns face so that after he gives priest the big win the match at Backlash Vs Cody could've been face vs face. Then in the Mark Henry-like retirement segment, he could turn Heel. Then we could maybe get Damien vs Finn vs Logan at Summerslam for the US title where priest would win just like LA Knight. LA Knight however, wouldn't have the fake cash in's, maybe a few appearances on the titantron but that would be it. He'd cash in on Drew and actually beat Gunther, before dropping it to Punk at Survivor Series where Punk would turn Heel, this way LA Knight would get miles more over than IRL, which is insane to say, and priest would be as over as in the real timeline and would go post Summerslam with a title instead.
Oh and then the Terror Twins vs Judgment Day would still happen, and at WM 41, Rhea would Pin Liv, which will probably happen, but Finn will beat a strong priest to capture the US title.
Im still in disappointment just thinking about how the 2020 mitb ladder match ended. At that point of time, Aj should have won that year and cashed in on Drew who was wwe champion to become a 3x wwe champion.
@@M._mkid AJ needed to accomplish a big accolade whether it’s a rumble or MITB win. And aleister black didn’t do as much on the main roster at that point of time. And I was surprised that Aj did not win it.
Mr. Kennedy was going to cash in on the Undertaker the same way Edge did they misdiagnosed his injury they tried to push him when he came back, but he eventually got released but they definitely had a long-term story for him.
Add to that he was gonna be revealed as Vince's illegitimate son, but he got suspended for steroid use. WWE had big plans for him twice, but both times it was bad luck
Mr Kenny was supposed to have a emergency surgery that is why they took it from him, but it turned out he didnt need it ,but once they figured it out it was too late Edge already had it.
WWE actually WAS ready to put the title on Corbin until he spoke up backstage while someone was incorrectly giving a speech on injury. Vince didn’t like this and buried him.
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of $270,500 every months,God bless Christy Fiore 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
The fact that they're doing Priest vs Rollins for the world title at MITB just like last year was Rollins vs Balor with the involvement of Priest makes me mad because they should've let finn be in there i thought they will be doing the same thing but this time with Balor as Mr Money in the bank The Story writes itself, WWE doing Finn Balor dirty
Pretty sure this current story is writing itself. Drew wins mib. Finn helps Seth beat Priest. Drew cashes on Seth, but loses because of Punk. All in one night. Thankfully, we also get Chelsea running around all year with her mib.
Ones I'd have changed 2007 - Just give it Edge. Keeps his own mania streak in tact for next year against Taker. 2008 - Shelton or MVP 2010 - Christian 2011 Raw - R-Truth - at least him and Miz were kinda top acts towards end of year, gives a little credibility. 2015 - Kofi - New day were one of the top heel acts anyway so why not give them the case and run raw instead of League of Nations. 2017 - Zayn 2018 - Lynch or Charlotte for the womens, Samoa Joe for mens 2019 - Balor 2020 - Aleister Black 2021 - Naomi 2022 - Zayn 2024 - Chad Gable
Only thing I wouldn’t agree is baron about having changed as winner. The man had creative and locker room behind him, they was building up a feud where he would cash in on and jinder and then face other main eventers on smack down. Granted this all went downhill and out the drain since he had disagreement with the doctors information about injuries and Vince said fire baron. They talked Vince out of firing to just losing MITB and pulling the plug on him being world champion
LA Knight was definitely not the best choice with him being on smackdown he would’ve gone after Roman and the undisputed title which would’ve messed up the Cody finishing the story thing and having him go to raw wouldn’t have made any sense whatsoever Damian, ricochet, or shinsuke were the only good options tbh could argue for logan but I doubt they’d put the world title on him this early in his career
Theory in 2022 was a great choice the problem was that it was 2022 and there's no way anyone is touching Roman at that point so everyone in that match is automatically a loser
Same scenario now, tbh. Cody isn't dropping that belt until RR at the earliest, if not next year's WM, most likely. Gunther is getting a long ass reign with the belt come SummerSlam, probably as long as Cody's. Whoever wins it either has to cash in same night as Seth v Priest or they're holding that shit until WM, if not longer.
The LA Knight one is weird, because he would’ve just had the same story as Preist. Either constant failed attempts, killing his hype, to eventually win at Mania, or he would’ve cashed in against Roman at Crown Jewel and lost. Priest was the correct choice.
Bobby Roode should've won the 2018 MITB. if he cashed in on whoever the champion was in 2018, it would've been GLORIOUS! 😊 (TBF I'm also a huge Bobby Roode glazer lol)
IMO 2020’s was honestly one of the best ideas they could have done for this match. Talking really about the match and not crazily about the winners. It was different and that what they needed during that time
Day 47 of asking Santi to make a “Mt Rushmores of WWE” video E.g. Mt Rushmores of technical wrestlers, sellers, comedy characters, mic workers, best heels, greatest matches, finishers, managers, and GOATs
Surprised by how compatible our opinions for most years are (especially with KO in 2017 and Sami in 2022). I thought the best choice for 2018 would have been The Miz (he was extremely popular with many fans after that IC title run), but the way things ended up with Bryan's heel turn and Kofimania, I wouldn't want to erase anything.
fun fact, RVD was supposed to win the first one but he got hurt like, 2 or 3 months before it, which is why Christian (I think is who ended up in the first one) took his spot, and Edge won
Jericho would've been the best choice, Punk had a cool cash in but they messed up his reign, and his second time around with it he did way better. Jericho had a lot of momentum at the time and would've been the best choice
Cm punk vs Jeff hardy was my favorite fued! I was a huge Jeff hardy fan as a kid in middle school and to see him lose the cage match and end his career really hurt me and I stopped watching after that match.
2022 I’m always gonna say Matt Riddle, the amount of fans behind him at that time was amazing, running off the RK-Bro tag team too, I always thought we would’ve been great as a MITB holder
Riddle himself said that up until a week before the match, Vince was going to have him win the briefcase. Overall, him winning would've been a poor decision because of his backstage heat and outside issues.
People say Jeff Hardy and I love Jeff Hardy. But when would it be the right time for him to cash it in. When Cena got injured, then we miss out on the "Age of Orton" where Randy went on that amazing 1st WWE Title run. Plus we miss out on Jeff Hardy chase against Triple H in 2008. I believe Randy Orton should of won and when Cena got hurt, him being rewarding the title make sense
In 2015 it’s pretty obvious that wwe chose sheamus to win cuz he was a hell and they wanted us to feel bad for roman when he cashed in on him but they failed
Sami Zayn could have been perfect choice for 2022 he was over as rover and he made bloodline going stale to most entertaining part of the show. Sami Zayn could have cashed in Elimination Chamber in 2023 where he had match against Roman. He could have lost but it will cement him as ultimate underdog babyface.
Brock Lesnar cashed in his own WWE contract in a money in the Bank contract ladder match. He was so lazy didn't want take bump in ladder match so he told Vince I'm gonna enter last without doing anything and win the thing and he agreed.
Being honest I never liked LA Knight, he’s good and all, he never had the hype from me though. I thought he was good on the mic and in ring. Just a bit boring of a character. I said from the start of the 2023 MITB match. “LA Knight Shouldn’t win, It should be Damian or Butch.” I felt like it was a good time to transition Butch back to Pete Dunne and he annihilates someone for a title, Damian was always my N1 though, He was my second favorite wrestler and I wanted him to cash in on Seth Rollins and win the title. He did win the title in heist of the century P2. But of course had to do it on my favorite wrestler of all time. I liked the cash in and everything. To elevate the story a little bit more though, (using no hindsight) it would be cool to do a heist of the century of the dude who made the heist of the century.
The funniest part of Theory isn't even him cashing in on a mid card title and losing. it's that it was an open challenge that hadn't been opened yet, but he could have come out and got a title match for free😭
2013 I wouldn't have Cody win. I wouldnt have Damian win either. Cody's story after that match was great, first a quick feud he went over against sandow, then teaming with his brother in an amazing storyline against the shield. I think i'd pick barrett. Get his revenge on cena. Could've just had Cena win it back in a triple threat at survivor series with del rio, then had Del rio barrett be a feud instead of fandango ziggler mess for tlc.
I really wish Nikki won the briefcase with a different gimmick tbh like the ASH thing was cute but if she would’ve won it with her chaotic personality it would’ve been so much more entertaining
To be Fair Jeff Hardy was slated to win wrestle Mania 24 before being suspended 23 should of been orton but he ended up being a world champion 2x at the end of 2007
I think that it should have been Neville in 2015, he was the youngest and most up and coming one, the briefcase could’ve elevated him to the main event and I think people wouldn’t question it after he almost beat Seth for the title
Unpopular opinion, but Damien Priest was the right choice. LA Knight didn't have a narrative reason to cash in on the World Heavyweight Championship / Drew McIntyre. It was perfect because of Drew's entire narrative about not paying attention to the right person and because Drew and Damien had history, especially considering how often Drew insulted Damien's plan for cashing in at Survivor Series. Plus LA Knight cashing in on Cody or Roman would have been a bad decision given Cody's story going into WrestleMania. Knight could be a good choice in the future, but last year and this year are just not it for him.
But would LA Knight’s momentum have survived the horrible booking as Mr MitB that Damian was forced to go through. LA Knight would have seen even more idiotic for constantly failing the cash in at every opportunity between July and April. Damian as a heel was able to take it but face la knight would not have faired better.
@@TopNoodlesla knight ain't cashing on roman reigns lol and seth Rollins is super cena mode who hardly lose and if la knight is a face who just challenge the champion 1vs1 instead of cheap win then he would've lost against seth. Gunther wasn't going to be defeated 1vs1 so possible option for la knight was united states champion but this successful cash in
@@TopNoodles and LA Knight is discount stone cold Steve Austen at home. People might have turned on LA Knight for repeatedly failing to cash in MitB over a period of 10 months until mania. If he did have the briefcase then there would have been no fued with the bloodline and no high profile matches for LA knight at fastlane, crown jewel, royal rumble, or elimination chamber. Get ready to scream “Yeah” when he loses MitB again and fueds with Logan Paul for the untited states championship.
In my opinion, you can't use hindsight to determine the money in the bank because in hindsight a lot of the winners make sense even the bad ones. Example, Brock Lesnar winning in 2019 makes the sense especially if he had cashed in on Kofi inside of the 8 seconds. Although it makes sense it still wouldn't make Brock a good Money in the Bank.
I strongly disagree with WM 24. It should have been Chris Jericho, the one who created the stipulation and the one who soon became the top heel of the company. Chris Jericho was the only correct option.
Aliester Black should've won in 2020, imagine him cashing in, lights go out, they come back on, boooom! Black Mass, he hands the briefcase over, and lands another Black Mass. 1 2 3! New Champion. Drew McIntyre vs Aliester Black would'e cooked.
Aleister Black should've won the mitb in 2020. Would've been interesting to see him cash in on drew McIntyre and them having a Rivalry. But instead otis won smh 🤦♂️
I think this year for the woman they should give it to Tiffany cuz she’s over at the moment but I wouldn’t mind iyo going back to back cuz she’s been acting out more and more lately and they could use the win to fully get her away from damage control and for the men’s give it to melo this could b the start of a good push for him but the only thing is that Cody could still b held up by the bloodline so melo with the case can hold on almost the full year and could still cash in on Cody or whoever dethrones Cody in the future
I didnt like Carmella as a MITB winner or a champion. Everybody wants her to come back but there's no void since she left. After Big Cass and Enzo left her character fell flat for me.

Cm punk vs Jeff hardy was my favorite fued! I was a huge Jeff hardy fan as a kid in middle school and to see him lose the cage match and end his career really hurt me and I stopped watching after that match.
Edge MITB run in 2005-early 2006 was my childhood and therefore the best MITB run in my opinion.
And made edge my all time favourite too
2019 was the epitome of Vince McMahon booking
2022 I’m always gonna say Matt Riddle, the amount of fans behind him at that time was amazing, running off the RK-Bro tag team too, I always thought we would’ve been great as a MITB holder
Riddle himself said that up until a week before the match, Vince was going to have him win the briefcase.
Overall, him winning would've been a poor decision because of his backstage heat and outside issues.
day 24 of suggesting Santi to tier rank every current superstar's finisher or the best finisher of every year (no repeats)
People say Jeff Hardy and I love Jeff Hardy. But when would it be the right time for him to cash it in. When Cena got injured, then we miss out on the "Age of Orton" where Randy went on that amazing 1st WWE Title run. Plus we miss out on Jeff Hardy chase against Triple H in 2008. I believe Randy Orton should of won and when Cena got hurt, him being rewarding the title make sense
Shelton Benjamin 💯 at least one
Everyone seems to forget that KO was US champ walking into Money In The Bank 2017
In 2015 it’s pretty obvious that wwe chose sheamus to win cuz he was a hell and they wanted us to feel bad for roman when he cashed in on him but they failed
you should do a video where you look at a champ and look at what’s better: the journey to the reign or the reign itself
You missed your chance to say “I don’t feel he had the right “swagger” to win.
Sami Zayn could have been perfect choice for 2022 he was over as rover and he made bloodline going stale to most entertaining part of the show.
Sami Zayn could have cashed in Elimination Chamber in 2023 where he had match against Roman.
He could have lost but it will cement him as ultimate underdog babyface.
Day 78 of asking you to rank every superstar based off of pure in ring ability
LA Knight cashing on Drew would’ve made way less sense
Brock Lesnar cashed in his own WWE contract in a money in the Bank contract ladder match.
He was so lazy didn't want take bump in ladder match so he told Vince I'm gonna enter last without doing anything and win the thing and he agreed.
Being honest I never liked LA Knight, he’s good and all, he never had the hype from me though. I thought he was good on the mic and in ring. Just a bit boring of a character. I said from the start of the 2023 MITB match. “LA Knight Shouldn’t win, It should be Damian or Butch.” I felt like it was a good time to transition Butch back to Pete Dunne and he annihilates someone for a title, Damian was always my N1 though, He was my second favorite wrestler and I wanted him to cash in on Seth Rollins and win the title. He did win the title in heist of the century P2. But of course had to do it on my favorite wrestler of all time. I liked the cash in and everything. To elevate the story a little bit more though, (using no hindsight) it would be cool to do a heist of the century of the dude who made the heist of the century.
Can you please do who should have won every elimination chamber match and who should have won every royal rumble match
The funniest part of Theory isn't even him cashing in on a mid card title and losing. it's that it was an open challenge that hadn't been opened yet, but he could have come out and got a title match for free😭
2013 I wouldn't have Cody win. I wouldnt have Damian win either. Cody's story after that match was great, first a quick feud he went over against sandow, then teaming with his brother in an amazing storyline against the shield. I think i'd pick barrett. Get his revenge on cena. Could've just had Cena win it back in a triple threat at survivor series with del rio, then had Del rio barrett be a feud instead of fandango ziggler mess for tlc.
I really wish Nikki won the briefcase with a different gimmick tbh like the ASH thing was cute but if she would’ve won it with her chaotic personality it would’ve been so much more entertaining
Day 24 of asking santi to do a video only showing his chair
Definitely not Brock lesnar
Keep on going bro
if christian isn’t one of the people on this list i’ll be disappointed
That Otis thing made no sense. It didnt matter that AJ dropped it and they didnt even have Otis cash it just a waste of a match.
24:50 I could see Roman doing this to his belt back
Damian Priest was the right choice for last years MITB Winner.
To be Fair Jeff Hardy was slated to win wrestle Mania 24 before being suspended 23 should of been orton but he ended up being a world champion 2x at the end of 2007
You should do a video about every guy who left the wwe and pick their best wwe match when they were with the company
I think that it should have been Neville in 2015, he was the youngest and most up and coming one, the briefcase could’ve elevated him to the main event and I think people wouldn’t question it after he almost beat Seth for the title
Day 5 of asking santi what was the worst booking decision/ mistake of each year
Unpopular opinion, but Damien Priest was the right choice. LA Knight didn't have a narrative reason to cash in on the World Heavyweight Championship / Drew McIntyre. It was perfect because of Drew's entire narrative about not paying attention to the right person and because Drew and Damien had history, especially considering how often Drew insulted Damien's plan for cashing in at Survivor Series. Plus LA Knight cashing in on Cody or Roman would have been a bad decision given Cody's story going into WrestleMania. Knight could be a good choice in the future, but last year and this year are just not it for him.
But would LA Knight’s momentum have survived the horrible booking as Mr MitB that Damian was forced to go through. LA Knight would have seen even more idiotic for constantly failing the cash in at every opportunity between July and April. Damian as a heel was able to take it but face la knight would not have faired better.
Well, LA Knight wouldn't be booked the same as Priest lol, cause he is THE MEGASTAR while Damian Priest is a paper champion and copycat undertaker
@@TopNoodlesla knight ain't cashing on roman reigns lol and seth Rollins is super cena mode who hardly lose and if la knight is a face who just challenge the champion 1vs1 instead of cheap win then he would've lost against seth.
Gunther wasn't going to be defeated 1vs1 so possible option for la knight was united states champion but this successful cash in
@@TopNoodles and LA Knight is discount stone cold Steve Austen at home. People might have turned on LA Knight for repeatedly failing to cash in MitB over a period of 10 months until mania. If he did have the briefcase then there would have been no fued with the bloodline and no high profile matches for LA knight at fastlane, crown jewel, royal rumble, or elimination chamber. Get ready to scream “Yeah” when he loses MitB again and fueds with Logan Paul for the untited states championship.
In my opinion, you can't use hindsight to determine the money in the bank because in hindsight a lot of the winners make sense even the bad ones.
Example, Brock Lesnar winning in 2019 makes the sense especially if he had cashed in on Kofi inside of the 8 seconds.
Although it makes sense it still wouldn't make Brock a good Money in the Bank.
Day 46 of asking for u to rate or rank every CM Punk matches in his 434 day reign as wwe champion
Here for the LA Knight glaze.
I strongly disagree with WM 24. It should have been Chris Jericho, the one who created the stipulation and the one who soon became the top heel of the company. Chris Jericho was the only correct option.
Day 7 of asking Santi to rank every Wrestlemania 1-10
Day 107 of asking for santi's top 10 tag teams of all time
I was hoping for Aleister Black to win MITB 2020
I actually think that Sheamus winning was the right choice entirely for the imagery of his cash-in
The disrespect on Sheamus is crazyyyyy
Man hearing you talk about LA Knight makes me so upset, I wish I lived in that universe
Aliester Black should've won in 2020, imagine him cashing in, lights go out, they come back on, boooom! Black Mass, he hands the briefcase over, and lands another Black Mass. 1 2 3! New Champion. Drew McIntyre vs Aliester Black would'e cooked.
Money in the Bank 2013 was the first ppv my folks ordered for me. CODY SHOULD HAVE WON
Braun wasn't in the 2019 MITB ladder match
Do you think we should go back to having separate matches for Raw and Smackdown?
Day 9 of asking Santi to make a best ple of every year (2004-2024)😊
I forgot MITB used to have 10 competitors.
Aleister Black should've won the mitb in 2020. Would've been interesting to see him cash in on drew McIntyre and them having a Rivalry. But instead otis won smh 🤦♂️
Rusev should’ve won MITB and I stand on that 😂😂😂😂
I think this year for the woman they should give it to Tiffany cuz she’s over at the moment but I wouldn’t mind iyo going back to back cuz she’s been acting out more and more lately and they could use the win to fully get her away from damage control and for the men’s give it to melo this could b the start of a good push for him but the only thing is that Cody could still b held up by the bloodline so melo with the case can hold on almost the full year and could still cash in on Cody or whoever dethrones Cody in the future
4:01 no are u ok
Day 63 of asking santi for the best heel and face turns of every year
To be fair CM Punk wasn’t in the picture at last years MITB
Day 55 asking Santi rank all of the Wrestlemania main
event entrance.
Day 61 of asking you to rank every wrestler in existence
63 of asking for top 10 alive vs dead WWE dream matches
I love the fun guy shirt
I didnt like Carmella as a MITB winner or a champion. Everybody wants her to come back but there's no void since she left. After Big Cass and Enzo left her character fell flat for me.
Replacing LA Knight with the exact moment of Damian sound soooo good. LA Knight would look really good with the world title ...man missed opportunity
cant believe the spots ric flair did in MITB
