What is up with Rey and the Money in the Bank match ? With his high flying abilities, you would think he would be a shoe-in for the match. But every WrestleMania, they find a way to place in a different match. To this day, he has never competed in a Money in the Bank latter match.

Because he's a big enough singles name to have his own high profile match.

But still, guys like Kane and Big Show still do MITB matches.

He's a bigger name than them, and a permanent face.

He hasn't been in very many ladder matches in his career.
October 2, 2000 - Monday Nitro: Rey Mysterio & Konnan defeated Disco Inferno & Alex Wright in a "Disco Duck" ladder match..
August 21, 2005 - Summerslam: Rey Mysterio defeated Eddie Guerrero in a Ladder match to win custody of Dominick!
December 19, 2010--TLC PPV: Edge beat Kane (c) and Rey Mysterio and Alberto Del Rio in a TLC match to win the World title..

The same reason Cena hasn't been in one.

He's probably all banged up and it's better for him to not be in this kind of match.

I wonder if they had wanted to do it from the start but were having trouble getting him to agree to it. I mean, I'm sure "Hey let's put Rey Mysterio in a ladder match!" is an idea that the bookers would come up with more than once every five years if he was willing to. |

Probably because if he was in it, people would expect him to win it, which would make him have to cash in his MitB contract on a vulnerable opponent. And that kind of clashes with his "overcome the odds" gimmick.

I really hate the Rey Mysterio No sell everything person.
But he can still put on really great matches. I am sure him and cody will have an excellent match.

because even while on the ladder, he's too short to reach the briefcase
seriously though, he has a whole demographic of followers, so his matches are always marquee matches. His position on the card doesn't really matter. It would kinda ruin it if he was shoved in with 7 other men and lost in the mix

I am sure him and cody will have an excellent match. yeah but what happens when Rey Mysterio wins. again. what's his 'Mania record anyway? It's either 6 wins, 2 losses, 1 no contest or 4 wins and 2 losses, depending whether or not you count each person in a Cruiserweight Open as it's own match. WM19: Loses to Matt Hardy v1 WM20: Cruiserweight Open. Defeats Billy Kidman and Tajiri*, no contest against Akio*, loses to Chavo Guerrero WM21: Defeats Eddie Guerrero WM22: Defeats Kurt Angle and Randy Orton WM25: Defeats JBL WM26: Defeats CM Punk |
