Match Reviews Episode 28: Edge Vs. Chris Benoit Vs. Chris Jericho Vs. Christian Vs. Kane Vs. Shelton Benjamin (Wrestlemania 21)
Hello everybody and welcome back to Episode 28 of Match Review and this week to celebrate the Return of the Rated R superstar Edge in the Royal Rumble, I am going to be reviewing the time when the first ever Money In The Bank ladder match: Edge Vs Chris Benoit Vs Chris Jericho Vs Christian Vs Kane Vs Shelton Benjamin at Wrestlemania 21. Let’s get cracking!
This was the first year the Money In The Bank ladder match after being invented by Chris Jericho and at the time it was exclusive to wrestlers of the RAW brand. I just thought I’d add that in.
Unsurprisingly, this was a very exciting match with all men taking to the top rope at one point or another, there was ladders being swung everywhere, people being squished between ladders, people being thrown into ladder and Benoit diving headbutting Kane off a ladder. This was truly every man for himself.
All the men in this match put on an amazing performance, Shelton and Jericho with their high flying entertaining wrestling style, Benoit and Edge with the amount of sheer brutally they endured and still countined fighting and Christian and Kane with their ruthlessly with a ladder. This all culminated in a very enjoyable match to watch and one I would definitely recommend any wrestling fan to watch.
Eventually after 15 minutes, Edge secured the briefcase to become the inaugural Mr Money In The Bank.
Due to this match being a fun watch and the brilliant wrestling put on display by all men (except maybe Kane, sorry Kane) I'm going to give this match 3.5 stars.
