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 New Day [NR]

A large proportion of this week was dedicated to establishing the participants for the Tag Team Championship Six-Pack Ladder Match at WrestleMania 40. The New Day secured their spot for this huge match by beating Alpha Academy on Raw.

9. A-Town Down Under [NR]

Over on SmackDown, A-Town Down Under also earned their place in WrestleMania's Ladder Match by overcoming The Good Brothers.

8. DIY [NR]

Finally for the WrestleMania tag team combatants, DIY sealed their first-ever match on the Grandest Stage of Them All with a hard-fought win over The Creed Brothers.

7. Randy Orton [-3]

Nothing for Randy Orton this week, as the build to the United States Championship Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania took a brief break.

6. No Quarter Catch Crew [NR]

With the Heritage Cup now defended under NQCC rules, it was Drew Gulak who defeated Riley Osborne to retain the trophy on Tuesday's NXT.

5. Sami Zayn [-2]

Between both his backstage encounter with Chad Gable and the contract signing with Gunther, Sami Zayn appears to be racked with self-doubt heading into his Intercontinental Championship clash at WrestleMania 40.

4. Becky Lynch [+6]

Becky Lynch overcame another hurdle in her pursuit of the Women's World Championship at WrestleMania by beating her rival Nia Jax in their Last Woman Standing Match on Raw.

3. Judgment Day [-1]

Judgment Day drops down the rankings due to Dominik Mysterio's defeat against Ricochet on Raw.

2. Legada Del Fantasma [+3]

SmackDown's match between Santos Escobar and Rey Mysterio took as back to last year, as Dominik Mysterio interfered to cost his father the match against the LDF leader.

1. Damage CTRL [No Change]

There is no shaking Damage CTRL's grip on the Power Rankings leaderboard, as Iyo Sky took out Bayley backstage before beating Naomi on SmackDown, and then the whole of Damage CTRL beat down Naomi and Bianca Belair.
