The Wrestling Examiner

In the last power rankings, I talked about EVOLVE 104 and some of the talents on the show. This week, I want to talk about EVOLVE 105. It was one of the best wrestling shows I've seen recently and was an absolute blast. If you didn't watch it, go out of your way to check it out. I truly believe that this show contained a number of future wrestling stars such as Myron Reed, Austin Theory, and James Drake. But there was more wrestling this week than just EVOLVE. And that's what we're here to cover. Let's get started. Raw:  10. The B-Team (Last Week: NR, Weeks in Rankings: 1, Peak: 10)- If you don't love the B-Team, then we can't be friends. 9. Ember Moon (Last Week: 9, Weeks in Rankings: 3, Peak: 9) 8. Roman Reigns 7 (Last Week: 8, Weeks in Rankings: 57, Peak: 1) 7. Nia Jax (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 7, Peak: 7) 6. Ronda Rousey 2 (Last Week: 6, Weeks in Rankings: 12, Peak: 5) 5.  Finn Balor  4 (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 44,...

Although I do not rank indy promotions, I would like to give a special shoutout to EVOLVE 104. While the next day's event was better, wrestlers such as Keith Lee, James Drake, and Shane Strickland deserve commendation. Let's get started. Raw:  10. Bobby Lashley (Last Week: 9, Weeks in Rankings: 6, Peak: 9) 9. Ember Moon (Last Week: 10, Weeks in Rankings: 2, Peak: 9) 8. Roman Reigns 7 (Last Week: 8, Weeks in Rankings: 56, Peak: 1)- What kind of asshole repeatedly costs someone a big opportunity? And Vince wonders why fans don't love Roman. 7. Nia Jax (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 6, Peak: 7)- Of all the ways to set up a Jax/Rousey title match at MITB, that was one of them. 6. Ronda Rousey 2 (Last Week: 6, Weeks in Rankings: 11, Peak: 5) 5. Finn Balor 3 (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 43, Peak: 2) 4. Brock Lesnar 1 (Last Week: 4, Weeks in Rankings: 57, Peak: 1) 3. The Deleters of Worlds 3/1 (Last Week: 3, Weeks in ...

I don't really have an excuse for being so behind. There's just been so much wrestling recently that I'm having a hard time catching up. As I write this I'm watching Evolve 104 and have a ton of shows to catch up on, including Raw, Best of the Super Juniors, and more. Let's get started. Raw:  10. Ember Moon (Last Week: NR, Weeks in Rankings: 1, Peak: 10)- Moon makes her debut on the Raw rankings by qualifying for the Money in the Bank ladder match. 9. Bobby Lashley (Last Week: 9, Weeks in Rankings: 5, Peak: 9) 8. Roman Reigns 7 (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 55, Peak: 1)- I can't even begin to describe how poor that Reigns/Joe match at Backlash was. It went on far too long, should not have main evented the show, and was dominated by restholds. What was WWE thinking? 7. Nia Jax (Last Week: 8, Weeks in Rankings: 5, Peak: 7) 6. Ronda Rousey 2 (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 10, Peak: 5) 5. Finn Balor 3 (Last Week: 6, Weeks in Rankings:...
