WWE RAW Power Rankings: The Asuka Era Begins

Check out this week’s RAW Power Rankings to see who starred alongside The Empress of Tomorrow in the first RAW on the way to Elimination Chamber.

Honorable Mention: The Revival: Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder are hungry. Wins over Gallows and Anderson and Rhyno And Health Slater have proven they are serious.

5: Elias Sampson: His win over Matt Hardy got him into the Elimination Chamber, but does he stand a chance?

4: The Miz: His win over Roman Reigns opens the door for a bevy of new challengers. Who could be next for the Must-See Champion?

3: Braun Strowman: He advanced in his Elimination Chamber qualifying match against Kane this week on RAW, but can he win the big one? With another loss to Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble, Strowman needs to step up and seize a moment.

2: Finn Balor: He’s having an amazing 2018 thus far and alongside Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, is just getting started. Even with a loss to John Cena, expect Balor to challenge for the Intercontinental title at Wrestlemania.

1: Asuka: What she lacks in English Language skills, she makes up for in raw magnetism and in-ring ability. She is a bonafide rock star.
