10. Stephanie Vaquer
Stephanie Vaquer was one of the best female wrestlers on the planet over the last couple of years. However, many fans did not know of her since she was not performing her craft in WWE. Well, they do now because she has been great since arriving in NXT late last year.
She took her status to a whole new level at NXT Roadblock when she defeated pal Giulia to become both the NXT Women’s and North American Champion. She is the top female in a great division and that’s why she lands in our latest WWE power rankings.

9. Jacob Fatu
Despite being one of the meanest men on the Smackdown roster, fans can’t help but like Jacob Fatu. He is one of the most believable acts in the promotion and brings electric athleticism for a man of his size. He is a no-doubt heel, but the “Fatu” chants continue to grow louder on Friday nights. It is a matter of time before the company turns him and banks boatloads of cash from a baby face “Samoan Werewolf.”
8. Gunther
Gunther is such a talented performer. A case can be made he is the best wrestler on what is the deepest roster in WWE history. However, he also has very underrated mic skills. While fans love to yeet for Jey Uso, there isn’t a lot of excitement about his title match against Gunther at WrestleMania 41 compared to other matchups. But the World Heavyweight Champion has done a very good job of adding fresh drama to a matchup we have seen many times before.
7. Roman Reigns
It says a lot about Roman Reigns’ talent that he can go from being one of the biggest bad guys in professional wrestling history to, arguably, WWE’s top good guy. He has not been seen since the Royal Rumble. But he returned in emphatic fashion last week by leaving both Seth Rollins and CM Punk lying. The fact that he attacked Punk and was still cheered by fans in New York shows just how insanely over “The OTC” is.
6. Penta
Former AEW star Penta has developed a great deal of momentum since his WWE debut in January. And the company seems very much behind him by giving him, arguably, the best entrance in the promotion, and keeping him strong on television. However, the lucha star has absolutely delivered in the ring and continues to showcase the “it factor” that earned him this special opportunity in the top wrestling company in the world.
5. Seth Rollins
A case can be made that Seth Rollins has turned into a bitter and whiny character. But he is still one of the best all-around performers in the world. He has elevated his mic skills to new levels in his feud with CM Punk. And their clashes in the ring have been epic. There was no better example of that than their outstanding cage match last week on Monday Night Raw. Rollins is a living legend and performing at a high level.
4. Drew McIntyre
Drew McIntyre often puts on clinics of what a great heel is. However, compared to a traditional bad guy, he has a vibe similar to the X-Men baddie Magneto. While he may be evil, he has legitimate reasons behind his dastardly deeds. The “Scottish Psycho” continues to produce strong work in and outside the ring and deserves a spot in our latest WWE power rankings.
3. CM Punk
Despite being 46 years old, CM Punk is delivering some of the best work of his iconic career. His intense promo two weeks ago as he laid waste to The Rock and John Cena was pure fire. Then he was part of one of the best cage matches in years, against Seth Rollins the following week. “The Second City Saint” is hitting on all cylinders right now.

2. Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes was put in a difficult spot at Elimination Chamber 2025. He was on the wrong side of a historic heel turn. In the modern era of the sport, that often leads to a lot of support for the newbie bad guy due to a fresh cool factor for that performer. Rhodes had to keep fans on his side. And he has done that since he was brutalized by John Cena, The Rock, and Travis Scott.
He took it to a new level on this week’s Raw when he came out of his segment with Cena looking like an absolute bada**. That is why he is one of the company’s 99th-percentile stars.
1. John Cena
The world was waiting to see what John Cena had to say to explain his shocking turn at Elimination Chamber. Instead of changing his look and music to go with his evil persona, he turned things back on the fans. Claiming they were the villains and he was remaining who he had always been.
Cena went into WWE Raw with the goal of trying to make fans hate him. As well as keeping his opponent at WrestleMania 41, Cody Rhodes, strong. He did all of that and then some at an elite level only performers like Cena can reach.
