WWE Power Rankings Top 10 Superstars This Week: #512 - New Tag Team Champions Crowned On SmackDown | 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. Gunther [NR]

On the final Raw before Gunther battles Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam, the King of the Ring defeated fellow Judgment Day member Finn Balor in Monday's main event.

9. Bron Breakker [-6]

No match for Bron Breakker this week, and his attempt to get one final cheap shot on Sami Zayn before their Intercontinental Championship rematch at SummerSlam forced him into a hasty retreat.

8. Sami Zayn [No Change]

Speaking of Sami Zayn, the Intercontinental Champion was victorious over Dominik Mysterio on Raw, but only via a DQ when other members of Judgment Day jumped him. Jey Uso made the save for the champ, and Zayn was able to avoid another assault from Bron Breakker.

7. Tony D'Angelo [NR]

The Heritage Cup remains firmly fixed on the mantelpiece of the Don Tony D'Angelo, his latest successful defense coming on Week 1 of NXT's Great American Bash over Tavion Heights.

6. Jey Uso [+2]

Jey Uso continues to build momentum in the Raw midcard, defeating Judgment Day's hanger-on Carlito on Monday's show.

5. Sonya Deville, Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark [+1]

This trio continues to rack up victories, this week defeating Lyra Valkyria, Katana Chance & Kayden Carter. However, their dominance has drawn the eye of Damage CTRL, leading to a post-match brawl on Raw. And, once again, please give them a team name WWE!

4. Unholy Union [NR]

Returning to their old stomping grounds in NXT, Unholy Union successfully defended their Women's Tag Team Championships against the Meta-Four's Lash Legend & Jakara Jackson at Great American Bash. Their reign also survived SmackDown, but only because Blair Davenport's interference led to a DQ in their match against Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill.

3. Judgment Day [-2]

A bad week on Raw for Judgment Day, as none of their members were victorious in their matches. Carlito fell to Jey Uso, Dominik Mysterio was disqualified against Sami Zayn, and Finn Balor couldn't dent Gunther's momentum in the night's main event.

2. Roxanne Perez [NR]

Roxanne Perez continues to swat aside all threats for her NXT Women's Championship, this week defeating Thea Hail at Great American Bash to continue her 4-month reign.

1. The Bloodline [+1]

Jacob Fatu & Tama Tonga brought gold back to The Bloodline on SmackDown, beating DIY to claim the WWE Tag Team Championships. Now it's up to their Tribal Chief Solo Sikoa to see if he can add the WWE Championship to their collection at SummerSlam.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

The Creed Brothers - Chad Gable's new proteges The Creed Brothers beat his former Alpha Academy allies Otis & Akira Tozawa on Raw.

Bronson Reed - The big man from Australia defeated Sheamus on Raw to take an edge in their ongoing feud.

The Final Testament - Karrion Kross' win over Xavier Woods on Raw means The Final Testament's momentum is showing no sign of slowing down.

Andrade - In a rematch from a few weeks earlier, Andrade once again overcame Carmelo Hayes in singles action on SmackDown.

Santos Escobar - It was a solid week for SmackDown's Latino contingent, with Santos Escobar defeating Apollo Crews on Friday night.

The Power Rankings Table (since WrestleMania 40)

  1. Judgment Day - 14 weeks (5 weeks at #1)
  2. Roxanne Perez - 11 weeks (2 weeks at #1)
  3. Cody Rhodes - 10 weeks (3 weeks at #1)
  4. Bayley - 10 weeks
  5. Jey Uso - 9 weeks
  6. Sami Zayn - 8 weeks (1 week at #1)
  7. Imperium - 7 weeks (3 weeks at #1)
  8. The Bloodline - 7 weeks (1 week at #1)
  9. Trick Williams - 7 weeks
  10. Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill - 6 weeks (1 week at #1)
