| Dolph Ziggler | | 1 | 1 | | | Ziggler maintains his number one spot in the Power Rankings this week after systematically destroying Sami Zayn at the Royal Rumble (beating him in 5:06 (Yes I counted)) yet losing in a Battle Royal on Raw, being ousted last by Bad News Barrett. He put up a great fight in the Rumble itself, but was eliminated by Shawn Michaels. Yes, you heard me. The Heartbreak Kid. I think thats more of an honor than a bad thing. On another note, Ziggler is close to breaking the record for weeks with the United States title. If he holds the belt past Elimination Chamber, he will be the longest reigning United States champion (Big E held the belt for 24 weeks). Will The Showoff steal the record like how he steals the show? Or will someone take the title from right around his waist? |
| Seth Rollins | | 2 | 2 | | | Rollins didn't lose this week, but he Despite being pinned by Randy Orton on Raw, Seth Rollins managed to retain his WWE Championship against Daniel Bryan at the Royal Rumble Pay-per-view. but, as we all know, Roman Reigns came and spoiled the party after Rollins' 4th successful WWE Title defense, spearing the champ, declaring he wants a shot for the WWE Championship. Can Rollins overcome Reigns, or will he be eaten alive by The Big Dog? |
| Dean Ambrose | | 3 | 3 | | | The Lunatic Fringe Wow. What a week for Dean Ambrose. I couldn't decide whether to move him up or move him down. So he stays. Well, let me try to recap this guys week - Friday Night Smackdown: Dean Ambrose sets up for his pre-Royal Rumble Intercontinental Championship defense. He is upset by Jack Swagger, a guy who recently won at the right times to earn a shot at the title. Royal Rumble: The Lunatic Fringe enters and wins the Royal Rumble, with a guarenteed shot at either the WWE Champion or World Heavyweight Champion at Wrestlemania 31. Once again, wow. |
| CM Punk | | 4 | 4 | | | Punk holds onto his high ranking by a I had my doubts, and Punk proved them wrong this week. First up on Smackdown The Best In The World made Bray Wyatt tap in 6-Man Tag action, and real quick, so quick as to where Wyatt's teammates couldn't hop in to help. Then, Punk performs great the the Royal Rumble and beats Chris Jericho and Christian in a Triple Threat match, retaining his title. I thought Punk would be the one that'd let someone into the top 5, falling out, but I guess not. Good on you Punk. |
| Jack Swagger | | 5 | 9 | | | The Real American Jack Swagger makes Swagger moves up 4 spots because, obviously, he won the Intercontinental Championship this week. He beat Dean Ambrose in a competitive match on Smackdown and then entered the Royal Rumble at #22 and put up another good showing until being stopped by Xavier Woods near the end. |
| The Usos | | 6 | 10 | | | The Usos are bumped up 4 spots after beating Mizdow and Miz on the Rumble pre-show and Jey beating Mizdow on Smackdown, showing their dominance over Miz and Mizdow and the rest of the Tag Team Division on Smackdown. Who will step up to the longest reigning World Tag Team champs? |
| Emma | | 7 | N/A | | | Emma had a great week, to say the least. The bubbly diva didn't win, nor did she get pinned, on Raw in a triple threat against Paige and Natalya, and winning in a 6-Woman tag team match on Main Event as well as ousting Tamina Snuka to win the Divas Championship. Let the #Emmalution begin! |
| Brock Lesnar | | 8 | 5 | | | "Who's next" - A 7-day younger Monda The Beast Incarnate had a disappointing Rumble, to say the least. He was hyped up to be a heavy favorite in the Rumble, and was a let down. He only had 2 eliminations and was taken out by Dean Ambrose. He lasted under 10 minutes in the Rumble, not a good time for a beast like Brock. Will Brock rebound this week on Smackdown? Or will this bad showing be a sign of a downward spiral for Lesnar? |
| Roman Reigns | | 9 | N/A | | | Cena, like Seth Rollins, falls despite The Big Dog set himself up for a great February by beating Sheamus at the Royal Rumble and spearing Seth Rollins at the end of his match. Can The Powerhouse of the Shield maintain this momentum and possibly win the WWE Championship? |
| Cesaro & Kidd | | 10 | N/A | | | Cesaro and Kidd move onto our rankings as the #10 spot, winning the WWE Tag Team Championships from The Ascension at the Royal Rumble. While they did lose on Raw to Roman Reigns and the Ascension, the gaining of the Tag Titles is more significant, bringing them here. When will The Ascension ask for their rematch? |
