TNA Impact Wrestling Power Rankings: Havok Among the Knockouts

Between tension in the X-Division, a new Knockouts Champion and Bobby Lashley’s biggest challenge yet in a reinvigorated Bobby Roode, this week’s TNA Impact was proof that the company has their creative juices flowing.

Check out this week’s TNA Impact Wrestling Power Rankings to see what occurred on another solid episode of Impact.

Honorable Mention: James Storm: His army continues to gain confidence and as a result, Storm’s stock grows as well. It’s only a matter of time until Storm gets back in the ring as well, making this new faction a legitimate force to be reckoned with.

5: Samoa Joe: The reigning and defending X-Division Champion proved his mettle once again this week with a solid win over former TNA World Heavyweight Champion and X-Division Champion Austin Aries. While his future in the company is uncertain after its move from Spike, Joe continues to prove he’s one of the best workers in the business today.

4: Ethan Carter III: A win over a former World Champion is nothing to be ashamed of and for Carter, it’s another notch in his belt. A future World Heavyweight Champion himself if the company can stay afloat long enough, he’s the best heel in TNA right now.

3: Havok: The new Knockouts champion absolutely destroyed Kim on two different occasions to take home the gold. With her pure power, can anyone, even the legend Kim, stand in her way?

2: Bobby Roode: He wants one more match with Lashley and this time he believes things to be different. Much like John Cena’s battles with Brock Lesnar, expect a much tougher Roode in their next match.

1: Bobby Lashley: Easily the most dominant champion in years in TNA, Lashley is set for another encounter with former champion Bobby Roode. The big question here is, can Lashley continue to destroy the competition or does Roode, the consummate student, have a trick up his sleeve?
