25. Dean Ambrose
This is the first week since their reunion that The Shield is being ranked individually, but not for anything positive. Ambrose's team lost in a six-man tag match and he is also out several months with a much-needed surgery.
24. Daniel Bryan
Bryan is in dangerous territory with trying to keep on good terms with Owens and Zayn.
23. Women of WWE
The entire women's division gets some limelight here for the huge announcement of the first all-women Royal Rumble. However, WWE dropped the ball with the announcement itself. In the middle of a battle between bitter rivals, they were all celebrating and putting their differences aside in a mere second. Kayfabe is truly dead.
22. Riott Squad
The trio's in-ring skills are admirable, but they have suffered their first loss as a unit.
21. Seth Rollins
Rollins lost a vital match with rivals and lost his partner for months to injury.
20. Finn Balor
Balor played a part in bringing a friend up to the main roster when he partnered with Hideo Itami for his main roster debut and first victory.19. Asuka
Asuka continues to get countless and pointless squash wins over Alicia Fox and it is doing nothing for her.
18. Hideo Itami
On his way to 205 Live, Itami first needed to debut on Raw and get a victory for momentum.
17. Kane
Kane is a contender for the Universal Championship, but he is ranked so lowly because he is becoming a third wheel between Lesnar and Braun and will be the one to suffer the pin in the match.
16. Pete Dunn
On NXT, Dunn retained his title against Tyler Bate in a classic that stole the show.
15. Lars Sullivan
After winning over Roderick Strong, Lars rounds out the four men to fight to be the new contender for the NXT Championship. The match is sure to be a brawl.
14. The Usos
The current champions may have their days numbered as they now have three very valuable contenders who are all threats now.
13. Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura
Orton and Nakamura were finally successful over Owens and Zayn, with the help from the WWE Champion.
12. Charlotte Flair and Naomi
The Queen and her partner were able to get some revenge on the heel stable in tag team action.
11. Cedric Alexander
In his match with Gulak for the right at Amore's title, Alexander was successful and as a bonus, defeated Gulak again on 205.
10. The Revival
The Revival returned to action to a big pop from the crowd and have become instant threats to the stale tag team title picture.
9. Rusev and English
Rusev is becoming a hot commodity for SmackDown and could help English capture the tag team titles and get a hot push.
8. Dolph Ziggler
Ziggler stunned WWE when he relinquished his title just days after winning it. He looks to be starting to split from WWE.
7. The New Day
After being upset the week before, The New Day regained some power with a win over Rusev and English.
6. Gable and Benjamin
Gable and Benjamin score another major win over The Usos and seem poised to finally claim the titles at their next shot.
5. The Bar and Samoa Joe
The three heels scored a win over The Shield and Jason Jordan. With Ambrose injured and out of commission, it is an even bigger victory.
4. Undisputed ERA
Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly captured their first tag team titles over SaNiTY and it could be just the beginning for the faction.
3. Brock Lesnar
The Beast returned to Raw and was faced with two heavy-hitting contenders to his title at Royal Rumble. He even landed a F-5 to Kane, which didn't seem to affect him.
2. Braun Strowman
The Monster Among Men was faced with the champion that he will battle at Royal Rumble. To his disadvantage, Kane is still a thorn in his side.
1. AJ Styles
Styles helped his allies take down Owens and Zayn, as well as getting the better of his longtime rival Jinder Mahal. He will try to look past Mahal and move on.
