Smark Out Moment

Welcome to another edition of POWER RANKINGS from Smark Out Moment! Each week, we will break down the current roster and examine who has gone up the WWE hierarchy and who has unfortunately taken a step down the ladder. Factoring in things such as wins and losses, suspensions, injuries, making a name for one's self, being humiliated, and more, who is at the top of the food chain and who needs to make up some ground next week?

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. Edge [NR]

In an epic Hell in a Cell Match to kick off Thursday's Crown Jewel show, Edge earned a hard-fought victory over Seth Rollins to win their series 2-1.

9. Mansoor [NR]

Three shows, three victories for Mansoor this week. On Raw, Mansoor defeated Cedric Alexander, before he then scored back-to-back victories over former partner Mustafa Ali at Crown Jewel and SmackDown.

8. Damian Priest [-5]

Damian Priest was once again absent from Monday Night Raw, with seemingly nobody queuing up for an opportunity at his United States Championship.

7. The New Day [NR]

All hail King Xavier Woods! The New Day's most underrated member achieved his lifelong ambition at Crown Jewel, as after defeating Jinder Mahal on Raw, he beat Finn Balor to be crowned the new King of the Ring.

6. Zelina Vega [+3]

Meanwhile, the Queen's Crown tournament also concluded at Crown Jewel, with Zelina Vega crowned the first-ever Queen of the Ring by defeating Doudrop in the finals.

5. Becky Lynch [NR]

In strange circumstances that will only be found in a brand-split WWE, at Crown Jewel Becky Lynch successfully defended the SmackDown Women's Championship against Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks. She then ended the week as Raw Women's Champion following an awkward title exchange with Charlotte Flair on SmackDown.

4. Finn Balor [-3]

Despite a victory over Mace on his return to Raw, Finn Balor tumbles down the rankings as he was unable to beat Xavier Woods in the King of the Ring Final at Crown Jewel.

3. The Usos [+1]

In an impromptu, no-build match for the Kick-Off Show of Crown Jewel, The Usos were victorious over The Hurt Business pairing of Shelton Benjamin & Cedric Alexander.

2. Big E [+3]

WWE Champion Big E had a strong week, starting with a tag team win over The Dirty Dawgs on Raw. His partner in that match, Drew McIntyre, was his opponent at Crown Jewel, and Big E retained his championship in that physical battle.

1. Roman Reigns [+1]

In the latest installment of the eternal rivalry between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, The Tribal Chief defended his Universal Championship at Crown Jewel thanks to some interference from The Usos and a belt shot to The Beast.

Austin Theory - The new kid on the block on Raw, Austin Theory scored a second straight win over the veteran Jeff Hardy on Monday night.

RKBro - After having their match with The Street Profits on Raw curtailed by interference, RKBro successfully retained their Raw Tag Team Championships over AJ Styles & Omos.
