The Miz is the new WWE Champion after cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase and dethroning Randy Orton for the title.
Moments before The Miz cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase, Orton successfully defended the WWE Title against Wade Barrett after John Cena ran into the ring to prevent Barrett from scoring a three count on “The Viper.”
Prior to the main event, The Nexus jumped Orton and injured his knee. Miz then took advantage of Orton retaining despite the storyline injury by immediately cashing in his briefcase.
The near three minute long bout concluded with The Miz countering the RKO into the Skullcrushing Finale for the pinfall victory.
