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. Andrade [NR]
Taking a break from his important work as the prestigious Speed Champion, Andrade picked up a victory over Carmelo Hayes in the opener of Friday's SmackDown.9. Drew McIntyre [-4]
Back from his short suspension, Drew McIntyre geared up from his upcoming battle with either CM Punk or Seth Rollins at SummerSlam on Raw.8. Sonya Deville, Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark [NR]
It was a successful first week for this new Raw faction, with Sonya Deville beating Zelina Vega one-on-one and Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark defeating Katana Chance & Kayden Carter. However, if they're going to feature in more Power Rankings, they need a team name pronto.7. Roxanne Perez [-3]
With a flurry of female talent soon arriving to NXT, Roxanne Perez currently has her hands full with a familiar face in Thea Hail, with their bout for the Women's Championship set for Great American Bash.6. The OC [NR]
A rare successful week for The OC crew on multiple shows. First on NXT, the trio of Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows & Michin beat OTM & Jaida Parker. Then on SmackDown, Michin scored her second win of the week over Ms Money in the Bank Tiffany Stratton.5. Liv Morgan [-2]
Liv Morgan only appeared via satellite on Raw this week, as the Women's World Champion taunted Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio before their inevitable clash at SummerSlam.4. DIY [-2]
No match for the WWE Tag Team Champions this week on SmackDown, as DIY will instead be watching a gauntlet next week to determine their next challengers.3. Oba Femi [NR]
The imperious reign of Oba Femi as North American Champion continued on Tuesday night, as he batted away his latest contender Duke Hudson.2. Ethan Page [+5]
NXT Champion Ethan Page enjoyed a successful first defense of his newly won belt on Tuesday's show, retaining against Dante Chen. But Oro Mensah continued his "on-site" policy with Page by attacking him post-match.1. Judgment Day [No Change]
Damian Priest's clean win over Braun Strowman on Raw keeps Judgment Day top of the Power Rankings for another week. However, there's still trouble in paradise between Rhea Ripley and Dominik Mysterio, with the latter losing to Jey Uso on the same show.HONORABLE MENTIONS
