Check out this week’s Review Fix Pro Wrestling Power Rankings to see what NXT and AEW absolutely made RAW and Smackdown this week forgettable.
Honorable Mention: Rush: The new ROH Champion has some big shoes to fill after Matt Taven’s amazing run.
5: Tommaso Ciampa: The former NXT Champion is back and ready to cause carnage.
4: Adam Cole: With Finn Balor and Tommaso Ciampa both back, Cole has more challengers to his title than ever before.
3: Seth Rollins: The Captain of Team Hogan at Crown Jewel has his hands full at Hell in a Cell as well.
2: Chris Jericho: The AEW World Champion was electric in his decimation of Cody at the start of the show and then in his six-man match to end the show. With Y2J as the face of the company, AEW is loaded with potential.
1: Cody: Getting the win over the uber-athletic Sammy Guevara in the first wrestling match on TNT in nearly 20 years, Cody proved the company is ready to make a big-time splash. Taking a beating from AEW World Champion Chris Jericho as well, the scene is set for a masterful encounter.
