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 oneself, 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. Legado del Fantasma [NR]
With SmackDown dominated by its Tag Team Tournament, the final match of the first round saw Legado del Fantasma overcome Maximum Male Models to advance.9. Hit Row [NR]
Another first round match of the Tag Team Tournament ended with Hit Row scoring a victory over Los Lotharios.8. The Banger Bros [NR]
