The final RAW before The Elimination Chamber left a lot to be desired, but powered by a huge card, RAW delivered the goods inside the ring.
Check out our weekly power rankings to see who has the most upside heading into this weekend’s Pay Per View.
5: Wade Barrett: Even though Bo Dallas beat up on him before his match with Kofi Kingston, Barrett was smart enough to get the win. Although he’s still rough around the edges, Barrett continues to solidify his place in the mid-card.
4: Antonio Cesaro: He didn’t even wrestle. So how did he make the list? With a modified airplane spin on the outside, Cesaro continually rammed The Miz up against the guardrail. It was a thing of beauty. The most dominant U.S. Champion possibly in the past decade, Cesaro is one of the hottest commodities in the company right now.
3: Jack Swagger: With a new attitude and a new manager in “Dirty†Dutch Mantell, Swagger has finally gotten the repackage he deserves. Because of that, he’s also got a spot in the Elimination Chamber. With technical skill and his impressive moveset, Swagger could be tough to beat this Sunday.
2: Chris Jericho: Y2J’s second damn good match in as many weeks. A huge asset to the roster, his ability to have a high quality match with whomever he performs with is an attribute rare in the company today. His win over Daniel Bryan this week puts him in the Elimination Chamber this weekend. Considering his recent string of solid performances, he’s sure to play a part in the match.
1: Mark Henry: The World’s Strongest Man wasted no time in his first match back on RAW as he made quick work of former World Champion Great Khali. With a clean win over Randy Orton on Smackdown last week, Henry is on a big time roll. With his killer instinct, he may have the momentum to get himself the win in the Elimination Chamber this weekend.
