Match 7: Money in the Bank Ladder Match for a WWE Title Shot
Rob Van Dam vs. CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton vs. Christian vs. Sheamus

Winner: Randy Orton

Match Rating: 3.5/5

This ladder match wasn’t as good as the WHC ladder match. It did have some sweet spots however like when Randy Orton delivered a devastating RKO to RVD from the top of the ladder. Also Sheamus legitimately punched Christian in the face to give him a chipped tooth and a concussion. Speaking of RVD, the entire Wells Fargo arena marked out big time when they saw their beloved former ECW champion. He looked to have lost 15-20 pounds since last seen in TNA Wrestling.

Final few seconds of the match we saw Curtis Axel come down to beat up Daniel Bryan. CM Punk would hit Axel hit a devastating GTS that would have Heyman come down. Heyman criticized Axel for interfering while encouraging Punk to climb to the top of the ladder.  As Punk staggered to the top of the ladder, Heyman would grab a ladder on the side of the ropes and attack Punk repeatedly with it to make him fall and bleed as Heyman hit him in the head. Cameras tried to cut away to give Punk a chance to wipe that blood  as Heyman delivered a devastating hit to knock out Punk. Feeling satisfied Heyman would leave the ring.

Greatest act of betrayal as Randy Orton would soon come in the ring, canvas the arena as he climbed to grab the MITB briefcase to shock a Wells Fargo arena.
