It is time for another week of the Ultimate Power Rankings from both WWE and AEW. Who improved their stock from last week and who downgraded their position among the rest?
This set ranges from Monday (February 5) and to Sunday (February 11). This means that all the results and highlights from this week’s Raw, NXT, AEW Dynamite, SmackDown, AEW Rampage, and AEW Collision will be factored into the ranking.
If a wrestler has a (+) next to their name, then that means that they moved up the rankings from edition. When there is a (-) next to their name, then that means that they moved down from the rankings of last week’s edition. If there is nothing next to their name, then that means that they stayed at the same spot.
Without further ado, let’s get into this week’s Power Rankings for WWE and AEW!
The NXT Champion came out of Vengeance Day with another successful title defense in the form of beating Dijak in the main event of NXT.
Gunther celebrated his 600 day reign as WWE Intercontinental Champion. However, Imperium would end Raw fleeing as The New Day and hopeful IC champ Jey Uso interrupted.
The clear favorite to face Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania, qualified for the Women’s Elimination Chamber match, as “The Man” prevailed over Shayna Baszler on Raw.
The World Heavyweight Champion may be continuing to look terrible as champion, but a glimmer a hope in his main event hopes may have been lit with a potential tag team bout against Roman Reigns and The Rock incoming.
We have new #1 contender’s for the Undisputed Tag Team Championship with Dunne and Bate. They defeated #DIY on SmackDown to get the title shot in Australia for the Elimination Chamber PPV.
Orton qualified for the Men’s Elimination Chamber match by knocking off Sami Zayn on SmackDown.
Hayes’ turn on Trick Williams was not only great, but he response as to why he did what he did and his character all together on this week’s NXT, was done as good as possible. He also made his presence known even more by attacking Ilja Dragunov at the end of the show.
This heel run of McIntyre has been nothing short of fantastic. He has fully embraced this menacing role and continued to be just that this week, attacking Cody Rhodes on Raw, and then qualifying for the Elimination Chamber match with a win over AJ Styles.
The Damage CTRL storyline continues to be a highlight on TV, with Bayley becoming more and more over as a babyface every week. And now with the re-inclusion of Dakota Kai and where he allegiance lies, the Road to WrestleMania for the WWE Women’s Championship is heating up.
#WEWANTCODY may have very well paid off. “The American Nightmare” has reversed everything from the past few weeks, and has rightfully and logically made the rematch between Reigns and himself official for WrestleMania.
Statlander and Nightingale’s partnership with Stokely Hathaway has been entertaining, and the duo’s chemistry continues to grow with a win over The Outcasts, Ruby Soho and Saraya, on Rampage. Their battle with Julia Hart and Skye Blue is also still in the works.
The reborn Matthew and Nicholas Jackson are using their EVP position to their advantage, adding a jobber style win on Rampage and then sending a bloody statement to Darby Allin and Sting.
The new makeover of Garcia has been great and hopefully his push continues. He beat Shane Taylor on Collision and then interrupted Adam Copeland, setting up a match between the two for Dynamite, where the winner gets the next crack at Christian Cage and his TNT title.
Another win is in the books for Purrazzo, as she beat Kiera Hogan on Collision, as she continues her road to Revolution in a match for the AEW Women’s World Championship.
The AEW World Champion was furious that his title defense at Revolution will not be a one-on-one bout, but instead a three-way match involving Adam Page and Swerve Strickland.
Takeshita made Chris Jericho tap out on Dynamite, hopefully putting an end to the long standing rivalry.
The BCC scored a trios victory on Dynamite against CMLL talent, and then Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli notched another tag team win. The two then had a brawl against FTR, likely setting up a match between the two teams at Revolution.
“Timeless” Toni racked up two wins this week, one against Red Velvet on Dynamite and another against Queen Aminata on Collision. Storm’s work as of late has slightly improved, and I am personally excited to see the match between her and Purrazzo.
There are new AEW Tag Team Champions in the form of Allin and Sting. The enigmatic duo claimed the gold, only to be attacked, brutally, by The Young Bucks to end the show.
Page and Strickland are in one ranking this week because both men fought an awesome opening match on Dynamite, one that ended in a time limit draw. Now, the two of them will join AEW Champion Samoa Joe in a three-way match for Revolution.
