I'm sure out of all the years and discussions on this forum, this idea has been discussed.
However, out of curiosity... anyone else wondered why nobody has used the briefcase for a heel/face turn? I feel like it'd especially open eyes, if it were an ally that turned on another, who would be the current champion.
Thoughts?

Someone did turn heel. Not like on a ally but they did turn heel.

Orton turned heel. Punks 2nd and Zigglers lead to heel turns. But no one turned on an alley. If Orton or another Triple H lackey became champion and Rollins turned face and cashed in he would be over huge.

Bryan turned heel with his program with Big Show and Mark Henry AFTER his cash-in... but nobody has made the big shocking turn.
Perfect turn would be two face allies in the main event against two heels. They beat them, celebrate... then BOOM! Heel turn and cash-in.

Orton was a heel when he won, wasn't he? Ziggler was heel during his cash in and didn't turn face until his return program with Del Rio, after being concussed.
I guess Punk's second cash-in on Hardy would be the closest... and pretty damn close, too.

I guess Punk's second cash-in on Hardy would be the closest... and pretty damn close, too. Orton was more of a tweener, his cash in pushed him into heel territory. Punk didn't officially go heel until the next SmackDown, but cashing in was the start of his heel turn. Similarly, Ziggler was not a face when he cashed in, but got a face reaction and soon turned face completely. |

Rollins should put The Shield back together after Reigns wins the title and then take it from him. They could have Reigns not trust Rollins and then have Rollins earn Reigns' trust. They would have to work extremely hard to not make it predictable though. Rollins would have to prove time-and-time again that he wouldn't seize the opportunity. So Reigns would have to be in several spots where Rollins could legitimately cash-in but doesn't. That way when he does it will have the most impact. I don't think there is enough time to make that happen successfully unless Reigns wins the title by Rumble, which I don't think he will.

I feel Rollins' heel turn already ruined that. I was thinking of it being someone's first turn, or first turn in a LONG time.
Sadly, the perfect person would be Cena.
Although the turn on a championship holding Cena would be a good shock. Who could be that person, though. They'd have to be a big babyface and a guy you wouldn't think would turn heel. Maybe Reigns, if he isn't already champion by next year's MITB.

I think RVD's victory over Cena at ONS06, where Edge came in and speaered Cena for RVD to get the cheap win, thatcould have turned Rob heel if -
1) Someone other than Cena was champion, this was when Cena was shoved down our throats even more than he is now, and we wanted some change.
2) it wasn't an ECW based event with all the fans riding the wave of excitement leading to ECW's new programme.

Punk cashing in on Hardy turned him heel. I remember when that happened, Wfigs wanted Punks head on a  ing plate. |

I was the biggest Punk mark for some reason back then. Still am to this day but especially around that time. I was a huge Hardy fan too but Punk needed an elevation at the time. That feud was great. I'm so glad I got to see Punk/Hardy from NOC live and in person. Great match that I actually forgot about. To the network I go. |

Orton turned heel when he cashed in at SummerSlam 2013.

CM Punk turned heel by cashing in on Jeff Hardy
Randy Orton turned heel during his cash in at SummerSlam 2013
But I agree, it would be cool to see an angle where someone wins Money in the Bank and his friend/ally wins the Title and they tease little looks and things with him cashing in before he finally does.

Probably wrong but didn't Kane turn heel after it? Like before it he was just inbetween or was he a heel?
Punk cashing in on Hardy springs to mind first though

I've been saying for awhile now, WWE needs to get more creative with the MITB briefcase. Besides a partner turning on his partner they could...
Have the MITB winner win the WWE title without using the case. Then they lose the title to (let's say Cena) and then they cash it on him immediately afterwards. They win the title back in the same night.
MITB winner literately loses the briefcase. Has no idea what happened to it. And they forgot to sign their name to the contract. WWE won't reissue it and without the case they can't cash it. Whomever has the case can use the contract. Some random night, months later, someone unexpected sneaks out and cashes in the case.

WWE did away with the King of the Ring, they can do away with the Money in the Bank. Its not doing anything. The last 3 that I remember (Ziggler, Sandow, Rollins) all heels at the time of their cash in attempts, its the same every time. The person will run down with a ref in tow, shove the case at him, if it lasts more than 10 seconds of arguing, the person they're hoping to cash it in on will get it together, then they can't cash it in anymore. Ortons worked because he was with Triple H so him cashing it in was extra villainous.
Here's an idea that will make it a little bit more interesting... Don't use the case to cheaply win the title while the other person is down. I'd hold on to it for almost a year and then cash it in and claim a match for WrestleMania's main event. That's allowed right? It doesn't say you have to use it within seconds of cashing it in, I'd use it in March to get my guaranteed match at the title.
That would make it more interesting than being a douche and trying to cash it in.
The only thing that's making it interesting this time around is that Ambrose attacks Rollins, but outside of that very aspect, ...meh.
