Money in the Bank

The Money in the Bank ladder match is a multi-person ladder match held by the CAW wrestling promotion SCAW. The prize in the match is a briefcase containing a contract for a championship match, which can be "cashed in" by the holder of the briefcase at any point in the year following their victory. If the contract is not used within a year of winning it, it will be invalid, but this has yet to happen. The first ever match was contested in 2008 at E-Extravaganza 2008. From then until E-Extravaganza 2013, the Money in the Bank ladder match became an SCAW E-Extravaganza mainstay. It then switched over to SCAW Blood, Sweat & Tears starting with Blood, Sweat and Tears 8.

Concept
The Money in the Bank ladder match can involve anywhere from 5–8 participants, with the objective being to retrieve a briefcase that is suspended 20 feet above the ring. The briefcase contains a contract that guarantees a match for the SCAW Championship. The primary gimmick of the Money in the Bank briefcase is that it can be cashed in at the holder's sole discretion, at literally any time on any SCAW programming. This enables the holder to take advantage of a moment's weakness in the champion, even if the champion had just finished a title defense for the night. The contract is valid for one year and the briefcase holder—dubbed "Mr. Money in the Bank"—can cash in the contract at the date, place, and time of their choosing. The briefcase may also be defended in matches, similar to how championships are defended. Captain America (now Steve Rogers) and Drax the Destroyer both won the contract in the ladder match, but lost the contract in a match. Ichigo Kurosaki is the only Money in the Bank contract holder to cash in and fail to gain a championship. Edward Elric (who won the briefcase from Drax) made the unprecedented move of cashing in the contract to win the SCAW Legends Championship rather than the SCAW Championship.
