Some websites rank wrestlers’ performances, but here at Cageside, we look at who is doing well and who isn’t.
Every week, we highlight three Superstars who are doing better and three who are struggling. This week, we saw some big changes after exciting events like the debut of the Wyatt Sicks and Giovanni Vinci’s return to TV.
Let’s start with those whose stock went down:
Stock Down #3: Pretty Deadly
Pretty Deadly lost again on SmackDown and failed to become number one contenders for the WWE tag team championship. They haven’t won a match since March.
Stock Down #2: Unholy Union
WWE Women’s Tag Team Champion Alba Fyre lost quickly to Jade Cargill on SmackDown, making her team look weak.
Stock Down #1: Seth Rollins & Dakota Kai
Seth Rollins and Dakota Kai got hurt in matches on Raw, which might keep them out of action for a while.
Now, let’s look at those whose stock went up:
Stock Up #3: Odyssey Jones
Odyssey Jones made a big impact by helping New Day and taking out a rival faction on Raw.
Stock Up #2: Bronson Reed
Bronson Reed impressed by defeating Seth Rollins on Raw, showing he is ready for a bigger role.
Stock Up #1: Roman Reigns
Roman Reigns returned to SmackDown and proved he is still the top star in WWE.
