Here is the key code for the rankings shorthand when referencing their position in relation to the previous week:
NR = Not included in last week's rankings at all
+ Green = the number of moves up in the rankings compared to last week
- Red = the number of moves down in the rankings compared to last week
Honorable Mentions = five superstars who just barely missed the cut
10. The Undertaker [NR]
The Undertaker made a rare appearance on Raw to sign the contract for his match with AJ Styles at WrestleMania. While Styles didn't step to The Phenom, Taker got to beat on Gallows & Anderson instead.
9. Gallus [NR]
Recorded in a time before the Coronavirus pandemic affected the globe, Gallus defeated the trio of Trent Severn, Dave Mastiff and Flash Morgan Webster in the main event of NXT UK.
8. The Undisputed Era [-3]
No wrestling on this week's NXT sees The Undisputed Era fall down the rankings. Expect to see that reasoning a lot over the next weeks and months.
7. Daniel Bryan & Drew Gulak [NR]
After pushing each other to their limit at Elimination Chamber, Daniel Bryan & Drew Gulak cemented their newfound friendship and team by defeating Shinsuke Nakamura & Cesaro on SmackDown (or, for the time being, GhostTown).
6. Rhea Ripley [-2]
Another member of the entire NXT roster that wasn't in action on Wednesday night was Women's Champion Rhea Ripley, still on the slow march to WrestleMania 36.
5. The Street Profits [-2]
More absences on Raw see The Street Profits fall down the Rankings, with no new feud lined up for Raw's Tag Team Champions.
4. Rey Mysterio [NR]
The only 'fresh' match on Raw this week saw Rey Mysterio defeat United States Champion Andrade, potentially setting the Ultimate Underdog up for another shot at reclaiming the title belt.
3. Seth Rollins & Murphy [-1]
No matches this week for either Seth Rollins or Murphy on Raw, but at least The Messiah has his inevitable WrestleMania clash with Kevin Owens cemented.
2. Drew McIntyre [-1]
While we got to see how Drew McIntyre became number one contender for the Universal Championship on Raw when they replayed the entire Men's Royal Rumble Match. But the Scotsman was one of the many not to appear live this Monday.
1. Miz & Morrison [+7]
Benefitting from being the only people from last week's Power Rankings to have a match this week, Miz & Morrison defeated Heavy Machinery on SmackDown due to an enraged Otis assaulting them with a steel chair.
