Top WWE Superstars & Jobbers: 2018 Week 21
During a week where news broke of WWE securing some crazy TV deals for Raw and SmackDown that is bringing in A LOT of money, it seems like the shows played it safe this week without rocking the boat too much. The majority of the rankings were unchanged, with the exception of the women. The jobber list also saw a bit of an interesting trend.
