In June, after pinning WWE Champion John Cena on ''Raw'', Rey Mysterio at [[Capitol Punishment 2011|Capitol Punishment]] and finally [[Alberto Del Rio]] again in a contendership match (which included Mysterio) all within one week, Punk revealed his contract would expire at [[Money in the Bank 2011|Money in the Bank]] and vowed to leave the company with the [[WWE Championship]]; some of his speeches and mannerisms echoed his final months with Ring of Honor. After making a scathing on-air speech concerning the way in which WWE is run and its owner [[Vince McMahon]], he was given a storyline suspension from televised WWE events but was reinstated the following week on Cena's insistence. Upon his return Punk ceased to appear with the remaining members of Nexus and the group would quietly dissolve the same month. This helped transition him from a [[Heel (professional wrestling)|villainous]] character back to being a [[Face (professional wrestling)|fan-favorite]]. Two weeks later, at [[Money in the Bank 2011|Money in the Bank]], CM Punk defeated John Cena to become the WWE Champion on his final night under contract with WWE.

Punk had a match with the Big Show and he thought that whether Punk would win or lose, John Cena, the money in the bank ladder match winner, would cash in his Money in the Bank contract. CM Punk beat the Big Show because of a DQ, and Cena came out with his briefcase. He annouced to Punk that he would cash in his Money in the Bank contract at the 1000 episode of Raw.
