Top WWE Superstars & Jobbers: 2018 Week 29
Extreme Rules happened this week, and it was quite a bummer. But it did give us an extra night of matches for our rankings. Well, except for the cruiserweights. They seem to be trapped on their own island where no one is looking.

Kairi Sane returned to the rankings last week, and this week she’s taking the ball and running with it as she earned an NXT Women’s Championship match. Sarah Logan and Alicia Fox also got wins on Raw to get onto the list in a big way. Sarah Logan got her first main roster singles win over Ember Moon even, who ended up falling three spots as a result.
Top Jobbers
# | Superstar | Brand | W-L-D | Prev |
1 | Curt Hawkins | RAW | 0-19-0 | 1 |
2 | Rhyno | RAW | 1-19-1 | 3 (+1) |
3 | Ariya Daivari | RAW | 0-17-0 | 2 (-1) |
4 | Heath Slater | RAW | 2-18-1 | 4 |
5 | Tony Nese | RAW | 4-19-1 | 5 |

9 | Mickie James | RAW | 4-16-0 | 10 (+1) |
10 | Kevin Owens | RAW | 7-19-2 | 7 (-3) |
Ariya Daivari’s absence continues to be a blessing as he falls another spot and got easily be moving down again with Heath Slater not close behind Rhyno. Kevin Owens somehow moved to the bottom of the list after he was thrown off the top of a cage, but technically he did win that match.
