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. Dominik Mysterio [NR]

Both the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments kicked off this week with a series of Fatal Fourway qualifying matches. In SmackDown's main event, Dominik Mysterio secured his spot in the semi-finals with his win over Bron Breakker, Damian Priest and Trick Williams.

9. Iyo Sky [NR]

Meanwhile on Raw, Iyo Sky outlasted Giulia, Roxanne Perez and Lash Legend to continue her quest to become the new Queen of the Ring at Night of Champions.

8. Brock Lesnar [NR]

At Clash in Italy, Brock Lesnar got his win back against Oba Femi following his loss and supposed retirement at WrestleMania 42, setting the stage for a future rubber match.

7. PENTA [-6]

The Men's Intercontinental Champion tumbles down the rankings after PENTA failed to find victory in his King of the Ring qualifier against Oba Femi, Solo Sikoa and Carmelo Hayes.

6. Seth Rollins [+3]

Seth Rollins's recent win streak continued in Raw's main event, as he took advantage of a title belt shot to pin Bron Breakker, avenging his loss from Backlash.

5. Tony D'Angelo [NR]

The NXT main event saw Tony D'Angelo extend his reign as NXT Men's Champion with his victory over Kam Hendrix. After this, he learned his next challenger would be one of either the newcomers NARAKU or Mason Rook.

4. Sol Ruca [NR]

After being denied a clean win over Becky Lynch at Saturday Night's Main Event, Sol Ruca made sure to get it right at Clash in Italy, beating The Man and taking the Women's Intercontinental Championship in the process.

3. Rhea Ripley [NR]

Rhea Ripley's successful title defense against Jade Cargill at Clash in Italy seemingly ended the feud between these two for now over the WWE Women's Championship.

2. Cody Rhodes [+6]

Cody Rhodes retained the WWE Men's Championship over Gunther in the opener of Clash in Italy. But it wasn't without controversy, as Gunther's foot was under the ropes during the decisive pinfall, meaning a rematch will be coming soon.

1. Roman Reigns [+6]

Tribal Combat capped off the Clash in Italy show, as Roman Reigns withstood the challenge of Jacob Fatu, successfully defending his World Heavyweight Championship and adding Fatu to the latest iteration of the Bloodline stable.
