WWE Power Rankings Top 10 Superstars This Week: #457 - London Calling For Money In The Bank | 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 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

Power Ranking WWE wrestlers list roster

10. Gallus [NR]

While Joe Coffey played mind games with the imprisoned Tony D'Angelo, Gallus retained their NXT Tag Team Championships on Tuesday over Edris Enofe & Malik Blade.

9. Carmelo Hayes &T Trick Williams [NR]

Carmelo Hayes' Raw debut didn't go exactly to plan, as he suffered a defeat to Finn Balor. But he bounced back to successfully defend his NXT Championship the following night over Baron Corbin.

8. Cody Rhodes [+1]

Cody Rhodes prepared for his Money in the Bank bout with Dominik Mysterio by beating his Judgment Day stablemate Damian Priest in the Raw main event.

7. Nathan Frazer [+3]

Nathan Frazer enjoyed a successful first defense of his NXT Heritage Cup on the Gold Rush by overcoming his friend Dragon Lee.

6. Tiffany Stratton [NR]

It was far from the most convincing first title defense of all time, but Tiffany Stratton is still your NXT Women's Champion after beating Thea Hail on Tuesday.

5. Austin Theory [+1]

The most 'meh' United States Champion of modern times, Austin Theory picked up a win over Ridge Holland on SmackDown.
