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. Pete Dunne [NR]
Pete Dunne launched himself into the NXT North American Championship scene by defeating current champ Carmelo Hayes in the main event of Tuesday's show.9. Roman Reigns [-2]
The Universal Champion suffered a rare defeat on this week's SmackDown, as Roman Reigns was disqualified against King Xavier Woods, due to interference from The Usos.8. The Hurt Business [NR]
The Hurt Business was back in action on Raw this week, as Bobby Lashley returned to the ring and reasserted his dominance over poor Dominik Mysterio. Lashley decimated the younger Mysterio and stole his place on Raw's Survivor Series team.7. Finn Balor [-1]
After last week's win over Chad Gable, Finn Balor was nowhere to be seen on the latest edition of Raw.6. Liv Morgan [NR]
In arguably the biggest victory of her career so far, Liv Morgan won a Fatal Five-Way against Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, Carmella & Queen Zelina Vega to become the number one contender to Becky Lynch's Raw Women's Championship.5. Becky Lynch [-1]
Speaking of the Raw Women's Champion, Becky Lynch was stationed at commentary for the entire match bad-mouthing Liv Morgan, showing a little shock and disgust when Morgan earned the victory.4. Zelina Vega [-2]
Queen Zelina suffered her first defeat since gaining her crown, failing to be victorious in the number one contender's Fatal Five-Way against Liv Morgan, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley and Carmella.3. Toxic Attraction [+2]
The trio of NXT's Women's Champions scored another victory on Tuesday's episode, as Toxic Attraction defeated Io Shirai, Kacy Catanzaro & Kayden Carter in a Six-Woman Tag.2. The New Day [+1]
Despite injuries sustained by Kofi Kingston last week, King Xavier Woods continued his impressive recent run with a victory over Roman Reigns on SmackDown, albeit due to disqualification when he was attacked and laid out by The Usos.1. Big E [No Change]
For the third straight week Big E rules the roost on the Power Rankings thanks to a victory over Chad Gable, which was probably not as comfortable as it should have been.HONORABLE MENTIONS
The Dirty Dawgs - The Dirty Dawgs stay in the Raw Tag Team Championship picture thanks to Dolph Ziggler pinning Riddle in Monday's Eight-Man Tag.
Solo Sikoa - A second straight win for Solo Sikoa on NXT, as the fresh face beat LA Knight and Grayson Waller in a Triple Threat.
Aliyah - Aliyah shocked SmackDown by pinning Natalya in her first match on SmackDown, winning a Six-Woman Tag for her team. However, this result cost her a spot on the SmackDown Survivor Series team thanks to the dastardly Sonya Deville.
Jeff Hardy - Someone who will be going to Survivor Series though is Jeff Hardy, who defeated Sami Zayn to keep his spot on Team SmackDown while kicking Zayn out.
Los Lotharios - Still undefeated on main roster television as a duo, Los Lotharios maintained their winning streak with a win over Shinsuke Nakamura & Rick Boogs.
