WWE Power Rankings Top 10 Superstars This Week: #430 - The Power Rankings Holiday Special | 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. Kevin Owens [NR]

With a showdown with Roman Reigns & Sami Zayn on the horizon, Kevin Owens teamed with his former friend/rival Seth Rollins to defeat The Usos on Raw.

9. Katana Chance & Kayden Carter [NR]

Despite the dual threats of Toxic Attraction and Ivy Nile & Tatum Paxley, Katana Chance & Kayden Carter retained their NXT Women's Tag Team Championships in Tuesday's Triple Threat Match.

8. Raquel Rodriguez [NR]

With consecutive victories over Xia Li, Liv Morgan, Sonya Deville and Shayna Baszler on SmackDown, Raquel Rodriguez successfully ran the gauntlet to earn the next opportunity at Ronda Rousey's SmackDown Women's Championship.

7. Judgment Day [No Change]

A back-to-back mixed bag for Judgment Day on Raw. First, Finn Balor & Damian Priest failed to beat The Street Profits, which led directly to Rhea Ripley challenging and defeating Akira Tozawa in a rare Intergender Match.

6. Alexa Bliss [-2]

No in-ring action for Alexa Bliss this week, but her sitdown interview with Bianca Belair ended with her smashing a glass vase on the back of the Raw Women's Champions head.

5. The New Day [+3]

The New Day enjoyed a successful first defense of their NXT Tag Team Championships on Tuesday, beating the hungry young pairing of Josh Briggs & Brooks Jensen.

4. Roxanne Perez [-2]

The brand new NXT Women's Champion Roxanne Perez didn't get much of a celebration after ending Mandy Rose's mammoth reign, as we wait to learn who her first challenger will be.

3. Damage Ctrl [+2]

Thanks to the numbers game employed to perfection by Damage Ctrl, Bayley pinned Becky Lynch in their grudge match on Raw.

2. Seth Rollins [+1]

With Austin Theory and the United States Championship still in his sights, Seth Rollins this week focused on teaming with Kevin Owens to defeat WWE Unified Tag Team Champions The Usos in Raw's main event.

1. The Bloodline [No Change]

Although The Usos couldn't overcome Kevin Owens & Seth Rollins on Raw, the rest of the week was all positive for The Bloodline. After running riot on Monday, Sami Zayn beat AJ Styles in singles action, then on SmackDown, The Usos bounced back to retain their Unified Tag Team Championships against Hit Row.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

The Street Profits - In Raw's opening match, The Street Profits beat The Judgement Day's Finn Balor & Damian Priest.

Carmelo Hayes & Trick Williams - The opener of Tuesday's NXT saw Carmelo Hayes score a victory over Axiom in a fun, fast-paced bout.

Zoey Stark - The heelish Zoey Stark cut some corners to get the win over her former tag partner Nikkita Lyons on NXT.

Braun Strowman & Ricochet - The odd couple pairing of Braun Strowman & Ricochet meshed well to defeat Imperium's Marcel Bartel & Giovanni Vinci in a Miracle on 34th Street Fight.
