Fallen off from last week: Harper (2 – inactive)

AJ Styles picked up THREE victories this week, giving his extra cushion in his already impressive lead. Harper was also removed for inactivity so most people moved up a space, but it wasn’t really that eventful of a week for SmackDown outside of that.

10Akira Tozawa12-12-11010


Cedric Alexander ended his singles undefeated streak in a blaze of glory as he lost his title to Buddy Murphy on Saturday and then lost to Tony Nese on Wednesday. Speaking of which, the new champion moved up two spots but doesn’t seem able to take the top spot before the year ends unless something crazy happens.
