Let’s get to this week’s power rankings after we saw a couple of superstars return, who are going to change many storylines for this forthcoming summer. Have a great day, everyone, and may the slams be with you.
John Cena: John Cena practically squashed R-Truth like I said he would last week. After retaining his Championship, Cena decided to turn his attention to Jey Uso. After saying some choice words, Cena decided to attack Jey during his match with Logan Paul. That led to Cody Rhodes returning to save Je,y setting up a tag match between Cena and Paul vs. Cody and Jey, for Monday Night RAW.
“Main Event” Jey Uso: Jey Uso defended his title against Logan Paul, even with all of the shenanigans that I just mentioned. Now that we have a match for both champions, I’m ready to see how this goes down. I don’t think an appearance from the Final Boss will happen, but for no,w I’m excited to see Money in the Bank’s card, finally taking shape.
Seth “Freakin” Rollins: Seth Rollins has been looking for another member for his faction and that all came to light with the return of another wrestler. Bronson Reed showed up to save Bron and Seth from C.M. Punk and Sami Zane, who joined forces to deal with them. After Reed showed up, he quickly decimated the competition as he pulled off many high-flying splashes to Punk.
Bron Breakker: Bron Breakker lost his match by disqualification after Seth attacked Jey during their match. That led to the altercation with Punk and Sami, who came to save Jey. Bron has practically been more or so a bodyguard up to this point, so it was great to see him back in the ring doing what he does best.
C.M. Punk: C.M. Punk has his eyes set on Paul Heyman and will fight anyone or any faction that stands in his way. You can only bet that after taking some hits with Sami last week, they may need to find a third partner. That partner could show up soon unless the WWE feels that Punk and Zane need to beat on a little more before someone saves them.
L.A. Knight: L.A. Knight cashed in his opportunity to be in the Money in the Bank match by beating Aleister Black and Shinsuke Nakamura. It seems as Jacob Fatu’s attention shifts towards Solo Sikoa and J.C. Mateo, Knight should get a fair shake going forward. Regardless, one thing is for sure that the Mega-star is ready for the next big thing, and that starts by winning this match.
Cody Rhodes: Cody Rhodes came back just in time to save Jey from a beatdown by Cena and Paul. It was a surprise to many fans, but like I said last week, it was only time before the American Nightmare returns. Now that the match is booked, you can expect tonight to be off the hook, as Cody will most likely start the show. That is if Rollins doesn’t stay on the show after his dominance last week.
Gunther: Gunther has earned himself some time off T.V., and I know he’ll be back this week as the qualifiers for the Money in the Bank match start to take off. For now, let’s see if they give him another week or just let him come back tonight to start that summer burn.
Randy Orton: Randy Orton hasn’t come back to T.V. since his loss to John Cena. Orton definitely earned some time off, and with Cody returning, Orton can take some time setting up his next story, which I know all of us eagerly await.
Roman Reigns: Roman Reigns is still off of T.V. and should be back shortly. With so many Samoans running around calling out shots, the Original Tribal Chief will be left to clean this mess up. That should start with Solo, but Roman will soon find out it didn’t take Sikoa long to find help within the family. This should either play out going into Money in the Bank, or maybe the WWE will keep Roman off T.V., keeping him fresh for Summerslam.
