WWE Decides Against Del Rio Winning WWE Title

In the weeks leading up to Money in the Bank, WWE's creative team brainstormed several different ideas for the conclusion of the pay-per-view event. The lead idea as of last week was for either one or both of the Money in the Bank winners to cash in their briefcase, ultimately resulting in Alberto Del Rio snatching the title from CM Punk. However, for at least the third time this year, creative changed their minds on Del Rio fulfilling his destiny of winning the strap.

Punk, title in tow, fled through the crowd after surprising the second generation wrestler with a kick before he was able to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase.
