He said when you need to know what you have, you treat it like a piece of coal; stick it under immense pressure to see if it is crushed into dust, or turns into a diamond.

WWE Money in the Bank 2014 Results Recap

The WWE Money in the Bank 2014 results are official from Boston with a new champion crowned and a winner of the MITB briefcase keeping his eye on him. The Authority set their master plan in motion on Sunday night in an attempt to put all the odds in their favor, with Kane active in the scenario. In other matches, titles were also on the line for The Usos and Paige, with several other non-title matches filling up the card as well. Below is the recap of what went down, with full MITB results here.

Among the non-title matches were another Rusev vs. Big E clash, with Rusev once again victorious using his Accolade submission. Not much surprise there. Stardust and Goldust were also once again victorious, defeating the team of RybAxel. It came down to a late miscue where Axel hit Ryback, allowing Stardust to roll up the big man for the win. Summer Rae and Layla fought in a match right before the main event ladder match, with Layla victorious after hitting Summer in the face. Fandango was the special guest referee.

Both Paige and The Usos successfully defended their titles. Jimmy and Jey kicked off the pay-per-view against Rowan and Harper who seemed on the verge of claiming the titles. However, the double team prowess of The Usos led to back-to-back Superfly Splashes on Rowan for the win. In Paige’s match, Naomi put up a pretty dominant and impressive performance, but Paige ultimately countered a move with a face-first DDT to get the pin. While Cameron didn’t interfere, she seemed somewhat disinterested in the match, but still comforted Naomi afterwards.

The two ladder matches didn’t necessarily disappoint, but may have been a bit too predictable for some fans. In the first of these, the briefcase was up for grabs. Barrett was ineligible to compete due to a shoulder injury. Ambrose and Rollins kept fighting throughout it, with Ambrose hurting his shoulder and being taken backstage. He eventually re-emerged and grabbed Rollins off the ladder, to make what seemed like the winning climb. The Big Red Monster Kane came down and pulled Ambrose down, then chokeslammed him and hit a tombstone pilderiver on him. Rollins made the climb to get the case for the win.

The main event featured all eight competitors as scheduled. Cena seemed to be a non-factor most of the match with other competitors hitting their various trademark moves to take him out. Kane kept playing the role of enforcer and helper for Orton. At one point, Orton got accidentally hit on the top of his head with a ladder, busting him open. He was checked on by medical staff for some time at ringside but eventually got back into it. Still, it was clear he was bloodied up, as towards the end of the match his face was covered. Kane helped him to clear the ring again so Orton could climb, but a heroic John Cena was once again back to stop The Authority’s plan. He hit the AA on Kane first, then hit the AA on Orton to slam him on Kane. Cena made the climb and grabbed the two belts for the win.

This makes for Cena’s 15th championship reign now. There was no cash-in attempt after he won, with Cena simply posing from the corner to show the belts to The Authority who were annoyed at ringside. It may set up a future program between Cena and Brock Lesnar, probably for a Summerslam main event. However, with Rollins lurking with that briefcase, he may be ready to cash-in at any opportune moment.

An MITB Kickoff show will start off the night at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. There are no special matches advertised for the show at this time, but Daniel Bryan is scheduled to appear to discuss having to surrender his championship belts after surgery. This special pre-show will also have a panel of WWE personalities talking about all the matches ahead on the pay-per-view.

The pay-per-view itself starts at 8 p.m. EST, including the two ladder matches, Paige defending the WWE Divas Championship and The Usos defending their WWE tag team championship belts. In a match involving no titles whatsoever, the team of Goldust and Stardust take on Ryback and Curtis Axel, with the winning team possibly being able to get a tag title shot in the future!

Just over halfway into the pre-show, Daniel Bryan was introduced and the crowd kept up with “Yes” chants. Bryan tried to quiet them down, then just decided to lead a chant with them. Michael Cole interviewed him in the ring about his time table on his recovery. Bryan said he had some bad news that he doesn’t know when he’ll be back yet, and he might need another surgery. He said “I promise I will be back and when I am, I’ll be better than ever.” Daniel Bryan listed Cena, Randy Orton and Roman Reigns as his three possible winners tonight.

Bryan kept answering questions Cole asked from Twitter users, but Bo Dallas’ music hit and he came out to interrupt. Dallas said he realized Bryan can’t compete tonight and it “has to be a pain in the neck.” He told him he “can still climb the ladder of life to make it back to the top,” but all he has to do is “Bo-Lieve.” Bryan then told him he speaks for everyone when he says “Bo, Leave.” Bo smirked about it but backed out of the ring and up the ramp as Bryan’s music hit and he led a “Yes” chant.

As Renee Young signed off ahead of the PPV, the Wyatt's sounder went off and Harper and Rowan appeared on the screen. They delivered a promo to the Usos, "Your time is up, tick tock, tick tock.." The sheep mask was shown on camera, "Run."

Sheamus set up a bridge with a ladder from the announce table to the ring.  Sheamus tried to hit a move with Bryan from the apron, but Bryan fought him off and shoved Sheamus.  Sheamus leapt over the ladder, but then Bryan jumped off the apron to knee him in the face.  Punk set up a ladder in the ring and started to climb, but Orton came in and stopped him.  Later still, all six men got up on two ladders under the briefcase, but ended up tipping over and falling to the mat.  Sheamus was the first up and knocked down several competitors, then hit White Noise on Christian.  Sheamus set up a ladder and started the climb.  RVD ran towards the ladder but got smashed in the face, then hit by a Brogue Kick.

Daniel Bryan climbed up the other side of the ladder.  He and Sheamus exchanged strikes with "Yes" and "No" dueling crowd chants.  Sheamus managed to hit his chest bash move on Bryan, sending Bryan down.  It appears The Celtic Warrior had it won, but CM Punk rushed into the ring and yanked him off to the mat.  At one point, Punk got on the corner behind a ladder and Sheamus, then dropped down to smash the ladder into Sheamus into the mat.  Orton got into the ring and hit a belly-to-belly duplex to toss Punk into a ladder in the corner.

Christian and RVD had a fight up on one ladder, with the ladder getting tipped over.  Christian fell to the mat, and RVD jumped onto a ladder standing in the corner.  From there, RVD climbed to the top of the ladder and did his RVD thumb point, then hit a Frogsplash down on Christian.  RVD climbed up a ladder for the briefcase, but Sheamus fought him off.  From there, Daniel Bryan got involved again and hit multiple moves, smashing down various superstars with a ladder.  In one spot, he hit Sheamus with a ladder on the corner, and Sheamus flew off and crashed through the ladder bridge he had set up earlier.

D-Bryan looked ready to capture the briefcase for the win as he climbed the ladder with nobody in sight.  However, Curtis Axel rushed down with a chair in hand and smashed it on Bryan on the ladder.  From there, Axel kept beating up Bryan on the outside, leaving him layed out.  CM Punk grabbed Axel and hit him with GTS, then fell to the bottom of the ramp.  Paul Heyman rushed down the ramp and yelled at Axel after telling Punk to go get the briefcase.  Punk got in the ring and Heyman pounded on the ring apron with the crowd chanting "CM Punk."  

Punk made the climb and was 3/4 of the way up the ladder.  Heyman got in the ring yelling "GO!" and then grabbed a ladder that was against the ropes and smashed it against Punk several times.  Punk fell to the bottom of the ladder.  He looked at Heyman who smashed the ladder against his head a final time.  Heyman took off his jacket and stormed up the ramp with Punk's face bloodied up.

RVD got back into the ring and started his climb with no others in sight.  However, Orton rushed into the ring and tipped the ladder, then hit an RKO as RVD fell off the ladder.  Orton climbed up the ladder and looked around.  No other wrestlers were in sight and Orton pulled down the MITB briefcase for the win.

Winner: Randy Orton won the All-Stars Money in the Bank ladder match to win a MITB briefcase containing a WWE title match contract.
