Seth Rollins defeated his rival Roman Reigns during Money in the Bank 2016. (WWE)
This year’s Money in the Bank was a wild one. A.J. Styles defeated John Cena, Dean Ambrose emerged victorious in an incredible ladder match, and Seth Rollins beat Roman Reigns…only for Ambrose to cash in and steal the championship belt for himself.
Not all of the 3 1/2 hours were as exciting, though; sandwiching a Rusev vs. Titus O’Neil match between the two main events, for instance, left many scratching their heads.
Needless to say, the Internet had a lot of opinions about the show. Here are some of the Twitter reactions to this year’s Money in the Bank you need to see.
The Golden Truth Defeats Beezango
Breezango cosplaying 90s Kane here 👺 #MITB
coming soon: breezango’s new catch phrase “my life for you”
Nice of WWE to let one of the writer’s kids handle the Breezango-Golden Truth feud.
The Lucha Dragons Defeat The Dudley Boyz
Dudley Boyz vs Lucha Dragons in a super important match
Lucha Dragons are always fun to watch tbh, glad this is on the pre-show makes up for having to see The Golden Truth.
I just don’t think The Dudley Boyz fit in modern day WWE. #MITB
The New Day Remain Tag Team Champions
The Vaudevillains are wearing 1900s magician tops and they’re not the most ridiculous dressed in the ring. #MITB
The Vaudevillains are so underappreciated on the main roster…#MITB
NEW DAY! #MITB
I just can’t with that Big E dive anymore. Please stop. #MITB
Enzo & Cass lose their 20th consecutive tag team championship match. Well done.
Baron Corbin Defeats Dolph Ziggler
Guess no one at @WWENXT remembered to teach @BaronCorbinWWE to keep both of his opponent’s shoulders on the mat #MITB
10 years from now, Ziggler/Corbin will be the new repetitiveness feud of Orton/Cena.
Chants of “BORING”…time to end this feud WWE. You certainly need to realize when it’s OVERKILL #MITB
Crowd chants “Boring” Michael Cole “oh Baron Corbin likes to take his time” #MITB
I have no desire to see Baron Corbin wrestle Dolph Ziggler ever again in my lifetime. Please move Corbin on, he’s good. #MITB
You know people are sick of a feud when you fly into the ring at the last split second to avoid being counted out and people boo. #MITB
Well, that was a boring, meaningless match. #MITB #MoreBeltsPlease
Charlotte & Dana Brooke Defeat Becky Lynch & Natalya
Kinda like the idea of Natalya turning heel but being Nattie she’ll probably just apologize and beg forgiveness on RAW… #MoneyInTheBank
Whaaaaaaaat?! NATALYA heel turn?! I did not see that coming!!! #MITB
With Natalya heel turn….that just makes Sasha Banks the babyface of the women’s division when she comes back #MITB
Natalya Heel turn? Random… hope this leads to a Becky Vs Nattie feud, leaving an opening for Charlotte Vs @SashaBanksWWE Title fued! #MITB
Match was whatever but the Natalya heel turn was certainly shocking/interesting. Hey, I’ll take it! #MITB
Apollo Crews Defeats Sheamus
Sheamus vs. @ApolloCrews is brought to you by “Hold on while I check & make sure I’m DVRing Game of Thrones” #MITB
Apollo Crews just got the Biggest Win of his Career in Sheamus’ Biggest Loss during the Biggest #MITB in History Ever Ever.
Ever. Biggest.
We unfortunately haven’t seen the last of Sheamus and Apollo Crews homoerotically cuddling each other for 20mins #MITB
A.J. Styles Defeats John Cena
Watching Cena take a Styles Clash was an incredibly enjoyable moment
Looks like the story of the match is that Cena has lost a step, and is beginning to realize it.
Right about now, you know AJ Styles isn’t regretting his decision not to go back to TNA.
Dean Ambrose Wins the Ladder Match
That was one of the sickest spots in ladder match history. Michinoku Driver onto the SIDE of the ladder
The creative resurrection of Dean Ambrose takes one, giant step forward w/ the #MITB victory. Love Ambrose’s Bill Murray/Terry Funk persona.
Every. Single. #DeanAmbrose. Fan. Right. Now.
Hell of a ladder match #MITB
Very happy with the ending to the #MITB ladder match. It’s about damn time! The main event just got much more interesting too…
Rusev Defeats Titus O’Neil
I didn’t think we had time for the Rusev match #MITB
With all due respect to Rusev, he’s no Sasha Banks when it comes to picking on kids in the audience. #MITB
if rusev never holds the world title what are we even doing here
I hope this Rusev / O’Neil feud goes on for months.
Seth Rollins Defeats Roman Reigns
When Seth Rollins hear chants “Let’s Go Rollins!” ;) #ReignsVSRollins #MITB @WWERollins
Is this heel @WWERomanReigns? I like it. I like it a lot. #MITB
Reigns is working a more heel style. No chance they could pull a double switch, is there?! #MITB #ReignsVsRollins
Are they going for a double-turn in this match? Reigns is showing off a lot of heel characteristics, and Rollins is being defiant. #MITB
This match has a very interesting dynamic. Seth working baby after destroying fans last few weeks. Reigns acting like a great heel. #MITB
He’s not a good guy
He’s not a bad guy
He’s just the guy responsible for some of the most boring main events I’ve ever seen.
#MITB
Wait, #MITB is still going on? Just have Ambrose cash in & end it. This isn’t rocket science.
seth rollins fully rules. still.
Seth Rollins is the WWE Champion. And the Internet rejoices. #MITB
SETH ROLLINS IS THE NEW WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! #MITB
Dean Ambrose Cashes In, Defeats Seth Rollins
AMBROOOOOOOSE #MITB
Haha, damn, that didn’t take long! Good for Ambrose! #MITB
All 3 shield members were champs in one night. In the last five minutes! #MITB
Im not the biggest Ambrose fan but in the moment they had me. bought the whole thing. Shield TripleThreat here we come. Great stuff! #MITB
So happy for Ambrose 😭😭👍🏻👍🏻
So upset Seth lost the title but so happy he beat Roman 😭😭
Tomorrow should be interesting! #MITB
