Top WWE Superstars & Jobbers: 2018 Week 27
This week was Canada Day and the 4th of July, so WWE kind of went on cruise control for the holiday week. However, there were a surprising amount of shifts in the rankings on all of the main roster categories. However, the one change in NXT is infuriating.
Top Raw Superstars
# | Superstar | W-L-D | Prev | Peak |
1 | Braun Strowman | 23-7-0 | 1 | 1 |
2 | Matt Hardy | 14-6-0 | 2 | 2 |
3 | Akam | 10-2-1 | 3 | 3 |
4 | Rezar | 10-2-1 | 4 | 4 |
5 | Seth Rollins | 17-11-0 | 6 (+1) | 3 |

9 | Brock Lesnar | 3-0-0 | 9 | 6 |
10 | Jinder Mahal | 11-10-0 | – | 10 |
Fallen off from last week: Dash Wilder (10)
Roman Reigns is thankfully not on this list yet, but he still impacted the Raw rankings this week. He was in two tag matches, and after winning both his partners Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley both moved up a spot. Also Jinder Mahal is here for some reason.
Top SmackDown Superstars
# | Superstar | W-L-D | Prev | Peak |
1 | Harper | 12-2-0 | 1 | 1 |

9 | Jimmy Uso | 7-7-1 | 8 (-1) | 8 |
10 | Xavier Woods | 7-7-1 | 10 | 8 |
AJ Styles took a bite out of Shinsuke Nakamura’s lead on him in the rankings by easily defeating Aiden English on SmackDown. Jimmy Uso fell a spot after losing in a fun main event to Team Hell No, failing to earn a spot in the tag title match at Extreme Rules.
Top Cruiserweights
# | Superstar | W-L-D | Prev | Peak |
1 | Cedric Alexander | 18-0-0 | 1 | 1 |

9 | The Brian Kendrick | 5-4-0 | 8 (-1) | 8 |
10 | Akira Tozawa | 9-9-1 | – | 10 |
Fallen off from last week: Mark Andrews (10)
Noam Dar returned to 205 Live this week after making a surprise appearance during the UK Championship Tournament shows, and after another win moved up two spots. Akira Tozawa also returned to the list after leaving last week since he won a squash match.
Top NXT Superstars
# | Superstar | W-L-D | Prev | Peak |
1 | Pete Dunne | 9-1-1 | 1 | 1 |
2 | Aleister Black | 6-1-0 | 2 | 2 |
3 | Hanson | 5-0-0 | 3 | 2 |
4 | Rowe | 5-0-0 | 4 | 3 |

7 | Kona Reeves | 3-0-0 | 7 | 7 |
8 | Lars Sullivan | 4-2-1 | 8 | 2 |
9 | Ricochet | 4-3-1 | 9 | 9 |
10 | Tommaso Ciampa | 3-2-0 | – | 10 |
Fallen off from last week: EC3 (10)
This is the list with the least changes this week, but this asshole Tommaso Ciampa finally appears and I am furious. This guy is a monster and I hate him.
Top Female Superstars
# | Superstar | Brand | W-L-D | Prev | Peak |
1 | Asuka | SD | 21-3-1 | 1 | 1 |
2 | Shayna Baszler | NXT | 7-1-0 | 2 | 2 |
3 | Bianca Belair | NXT | 6-1-0 | 3 | 2 |
4 | Becky Lynch | SD | 12-9-0 | 5 (+1) | 4 |
5 | Charlotte Flair | SD | 11-8-0 | 4 (-1) | 2 |
6 | Ruby Riott | RAW | 10-8-0 | 6 | 6 |
7 | Candice LeRae | NXT | 2-1-0 | 7 | 7 |
8 | Nikki Cross | NXT | 2-1-0 | 8 | 4 |
9 | Ember Moon | RAW | 8-8-0 | – | 9 |
10 | Naomi | SD | 8-8-0 | 9 (-1) | 8 |
Fallen off from last week: Sarah Logan (10)
Becky Lynch’s hot streak continued with another win and she moved up a spot past Charlotte Flair, who I believe is currently out with an injury. Ember Moon also returned to the list by beating The Riott Squad’s Liv Morgan on Raw. This caused her to remove The Riott Squad’s Sarah Logan from the list.
Top Jobbers
# | Superstar | Brand | W-L-D | Prev |
1 | Ariya Daivari | RAW | 0-17-0 | 1 |
2 | Curt Hawkins | RAW | 0-17-0 | 2 |
3 | Rhyno | RAW | 1-18-1 | 3 |
4 | Heath Slater | RAW | 2-17-1 | 5 (+1) |
5 | Tony Nese | RAW | 4-19-0 | 4 (-1) |
6 | Kevin Owens | RAW | 6-19-2 | 7 (+1) |
7 | Apollo Crews | RAW | 6-19-1 | 8 (+1) |
8 | Sonya Deville | SD | 3-15-0 | 6 (-2) |
9 | Titus O’Neil | RAW | 4-15-1 | 9 |
10 | Mickie James | RAW | 4-15-0 | 10 |
Heath Slater moved back up after he and Rhyno lost to… The Ascension. Kevin Owens was thrown into a portable toilet and covered in shit, which sums up his 2018 as he moves a spot as well. Seriously, it’s poetry.
