Top WWE Superstars & Jobbers: 2018 Week 8
Each week, we look through the win-loss records of the WWE Superstars during the year to see who really are the best and worst, if wins and losses actually mattered. You can view more over in our Statistics section. You can also help support us by subscribing to our Patreon.
We are heading into the final Raw-only pay-per-view with Elimination Chamber. And due to the two Chamber matches we have a lot of people that are going to be on this card despite how few matches are announced. Meanwhile SmackDown is still spinning its wheels, 205 Live and the Mixed Match Challenge finished their first rounds, and NXT had a big championship match this week.
