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. Shinsuke Nakamura [NR]
Although he seemingly hasn't found the opponent he's searching for, Shinsuke Nakamura has been beating many people in the meantime. On Raw, Nakamura picked up his latest victory over Chad Gable.9. Blair Davenport [NR]
The Women's Iron Survivor Challenge continues to fill up, with Blair Davenport the latest to join the ranks after she beat Thea Hail on NXT.8. Josh Briggs [NR]

One week after forming an unholy alliance with The Judgment Day, Drew McIntyre defeated Jey Uso in the Raw main event to earn his team the advantage at Survivor Series WarGames.3. Seth Rollins [-1]
Meanwhile World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins stayed out of the ring before WarGames, watching as Jey Uso failed to win their side the WarGames advantage.2. Lyra Valkyria [NR]
