Top 10: Men

1. Drew McIntyre

He’s been radio silent for nearly two months, dating back to the opening round of the 2019 King of the Ring tournament. But McIntyre returned in glorious fashion this week, as he picked up an impressive win over Ricochet after being named to Ric Flair’s team at Crown Jewel.

2. Seth Rollins

The Beastslayer handed out a golden opportunity to Humberto Carrillo, one of Raw‘s youngest stars to join the show via the Draft. After an intense battle, Rollins Stomped his way to victory.

3. Humberto Carrillo

Yes, it was a losing effort. But he threw everything at Rollins except the proverbial kitchen sink. Carrillo seemingly earned the respect of Rollins based on the post-match handshake, as we’ll likely see more from this upstart soon.

4. Shelton Benjamin

While he wasn’t in action, Benjamin interrupted Rey Mysterio and brought out a little history. He mentioned his college days with Brock Lesnar and training the former Universal Champion and current WWE Champion. This is the Shelton Benjamin that Raw deserves to see, minus getting embarrassed by Cain Velasquez.

5. AJ Styles

The Phenomenal One managed to get himself tossed during The O.C.’s main event match against The Street Profits. But he stayed just relevant enough to make the list, and to take a Stunner from Kevin Owens.

6. Kevin Owens

Owens was the surprise third man to help out The Street Profits, and delivered a Stunner to Styles for his efforts. Don’t be surprised to see a match between those two somewhere sooner than later.

7. Rusev

The Bulgarian Brute crashed Lana and Bobby Lashley’s restaurant dinner, and is just biding his time until he can get his hands on the duo.

8. Bobby Lashley

Lashley is getting under the skin of Rusev week by week, and it’s enough to at least give him mention here until we can get these two in the ring.

9. Aleister Black

After a convincing win over a larger opponent, Black continues to look for someone to pick a fight against him. It wasn’t exactly a competitive match, a squash against Local Talent, so he falls a few spots this week.

10. Andrade

He continues to impress, and it never hurts having a little help in his corner. But as far as the rankings this week, it could’ve been a huge blow if he would’ve lost to Sin Cara. It was a match Andrade should’ve won decisively, and thankfully did, albeit with some help from Zelina Vega.

So there was a noted shakeup this week in the Power Rankings this week. Unfortunately, the ladies didn’t have a presence to properly put their list together, but there was enough action to go around. And it was good to see Drew McIntyre back in action. Let us know your thoughts on this week’s Raw Power Rankings in the comments below.
