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

10. The Bloodline [NR]

We begin this week's Power Rankings with the main event of Money in the Bank, where The Bloodline secured Solo Sikoa's challenge for the WWE Championship with their victory over champion Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton & Kevin Owens.

9. Sami Zayn [NR]

In what many people considered a surprise result, Sami Zayn harnessed the support of a Canadian crowd to retain his Intercontinental Championship over Bron Breakker.

8. The Family [+1]

While The Family missed out on the NXT Heatwave card, Tony D'Angelo was back in action on Tuesday night where he once again retained his Heritage Cup, this time beating Lexis King.

7. Ethan Page [NR]

A new NXT Champion was crowned at Heatwave, as Ethan Page fell on top of Je'Von Evans to win the main event, also featuring Shawn Spears and former champ Trick Williams.

6. Tiffany Stratton [NR]

In a frantic and well-received Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Tiffany Stratton captured the briefcase to become Miss Money in the Bank. Now the WWE Women's Championship is on Tiffy Time until she cashes in her opportunity.

5. Drew McIntyre [-1]

It's rare for a Money in the Bank winner to drop down the Rankings, but Drew McIntyre's tumultuous 2024 makes this appropriate. After beating five men to the briefcase, McIntyre immediately cashed-in on the World Heavyweight Championship match later in the show, only for CM Punk to once again cost him, leading to his loss to Damian Priest.

4. Roxanne Perez [+1]

The NXT Women's Championship remains around the waist of Roxanne Perez coming out of Heatwave, as she batted away her latest challenger Lola Vice on Sunday night.

3. Liv Morgan [No Change]

On Raw, Liv Morgan teamed with her "Daddy" Dominik Mysterio to defeat Rey Mysterio & Zelina Vega. However, their celebration was cut short by the return of Rhea Ripley, whose sights are set on reclaiming the Women's World Championship.

2. DIY [-1]

After capturing the WWE Tag Team Championships last week, DIY retained the titles in an immediate rematch against A-Town Down Under on SmackDown, while also drawing the ire of the aggressive Jacob Fatu.

1. Judgment Day [+1]

It was a great, albeit challenging, week for Judgment Day. At Money in the Bank, Damian Priest withstood the cash-in attempt by Drew McIntyre to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against him and Seth Rollins. On Raw, a JD trio beat Braun Strowman & Awesome Truth, while Dominik Mysterio teamed with Liv Morgan to defeat his father Rey Mysterio & Zelina Vega.
