WWE Power Rankings Top 10 Superstars This Week: #593 - The Fallout From Elimination Lame-ber | 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. The Irresistible Forces [-7]

After their victory over Rhiyo last week, The Irresistible Forces enjoyed their Women's Tag Team Championship celebration on this week's SmackDown, which attracted the attention of several challengers.

9. Je'Von Evans [-8]

Despite a few flashy moments in an overall poor Men's Elimination Chamber Match, Je'Von Evans was the first man eliminated, and did not make an appearance on the following Raw.

8. PENTA [NR]

Thanks maybe in part from the newcomer Danhausen's cursing powers, PENTA captured the Men's Intercontinental Championship on Raw to end Dominik Mysterio's almost year-long reign.

7. AJ Lee [NR]

Meanwhile the Women's Intercontinental Championship also switched hands this week, with AJ Lee winning her first title since 2014 against Becky Lynch at Elimination Chamber.

6. CM Punk [NR]

AJ Lee's victory made it two wins out of two for her household at Elimination Chamber, as CM Punk retained his World Heavyweight Championship over Finn Balor to set his WrestleMania match with Roman Reigns in stone.

5. Randy Orton [NR]

Randy Orton will fight for his 15th WWE Championship reign at WrestleMania after he survived the Men's Elimination Chamber, last eliminating Cody Rhodes after Drew McIntyre's interference.

4. Cody Rhodes [NR]

The disappointment of falling short at Elimination Chamber gave way to elation on the following SmackDown for Cody Rhodes, as he got revenge on Drew McIntyre to reclaim his third WWE Championship – and set up a defense against Randy Orton in the process.

3. Carmelo Hayes [+1]

There was a surprising challenger in the Men's United States Open Challenge on SmackDown in the form of AAA's El Hijo de Dr Wagner Jr, but Carmelo Hayes proved too much once again to successfully defend his title.

2. Rhea Ripley [+4]

Fresh off the disappointment of losing her Women's Tag Team Championships, Rhea Ripley bounced back to win the Women's Elimination Chamber on Saturday, pinning Tiffany Stratton to earn a shot at Jade Cargill and the WWE Women's Championship.

1. Myles Borne [+1]

After winning the Men's North American Championship on last week's NXT, Myles Borne repeated the feat this week by overcoming Ethan Page in their rematch.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Gunther - Thanks to the mask removal seen around the world, Gunther defeated Dragon Lee in their grudge match on Raw.

Wren Sinclair - In a Women's Speed Championship tournament bout, Wren Sinclair advanced at the expense of Nikkita Lyons.

Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss - Setting their sights on The Irresistible Forces, Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss got the better of Giulia & Kiana James on SmackDown.

Oba Femi - This week for free agent Oba Femi he punked out Rusev on Raw before beating the hapless Johnny Gargano on SmackDown.
