Ranking the top WWE Superstars on Friday Night SmackDown. Brock Lesnar, Bayley and The Revival top their divisions.

Not much has changed since the first edition of Friday Night SmackDown Power Rankings, but after this week’s matches, there has been a little movement. As usual, it starts with the tag team top five, then the women’s top 10 followed by the men’s top 10.

Tag Team Power Rankings

The tag team division will present for the Largest Tag Team Turmoil Match at Crown Jewel on Oct. 31. In preparation for that match, Friday Night Smackdown paired The Revival with Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode to fight against The New Day and Heavy Machinery.

1. The Revival

Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder remain the Friday Night SmackDown Tag Team Champions, so they remain at the top of the list. Despite their loss to The New Day and Heavy Machinery while teaming up with Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode, until a team steps up to challenge them, The Revival will remain at the top of the list.

2. The New Day

The New Day’s victory over The Revival and Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode when they teamed with Heavy Machinery on Friday solidifies their spot on this list. Xavier Woods went down with an injury in Australia, the severity of which is currently unknown, but Kofi Kingston can step up and fight alongside Big E to keep the team’s momentum going. Until proven that they can’t do it without Woods, The New Day stays at number two.

3. Heavy Machinery

Heavy Machinery teamed with The New Day to defeat The Revival and Ziggler and Roode this week, showing that they are not to be overlooked at Crown Jewel at the end of the month. Momentum is on their side with the victory, and while still looking to make a name for themselves, Otis and Tucker remain in the third spot.

4. Robert Roode/Dolph Ziggler

Roode and Ziggler earned a loss as they teamed with The Revival on Friday, showing that they still have some work to do. The newly-formed team has gelled quickly, but it will take more work to move up this list and take out a team like The Revival for the title.

5. The B-Team

While the B-Team as a tag team hasn’t been in the ring for awhile, Curtis Axel just had a match against Shorty Gable on Friday with Bo Dallas at ringside. There aren’t a lot of challengers in this small division, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see another team in this spot next week. It all depends on who shows up, and when. For now, The B-Team stays put.
