20. Sheamus (Last week N0. 20)
Mr. Money in the Bank once again finds himself in the bottom of the rankings due to another loss at the hands of Randy Orton heading into their clash at SummerSlam. Sheamus consistently has found himself second-best against the Viper, and in a tag team match with Kevin Owens against Orton and Cesaro, the Irishman ended up tasting the canvas courtesy of an RKO.
19. The Bella Twins (Last week No. 7)
With the Divas division coming to blows at SummerSlam in an elimination tag team match, Team Bella have been suffering worse than most in terms of defeats. Even Divas Champion Nikki Bella has not been immune to these problems, as she battled NXT Women’s Champion Sasha Banks on RAW. A brief distraction from Naomi was enough for Nikki to find herself tapping at the mercy of the vicious Bank Statement.
18. Brock Lesnar (Last week NR)
It was a homecoming to forget for Brock Lesnar, as the Minnesota-native returned to his home state to a hero’s welcome. However, as he stood imperiously whilst his advocate Paul Heyman talked at length about his client’s upcoming conquering of the Undertaker at SummerSlam, the lights went out. The Phenom took a cheap shot below the belt to wind Lesnar, before dropping him with a Chokeslam and Tombstone Piledriver to leave the Beast tamely laying in the ring.
17. Naomi (Last week No. 4)
After last week’s surprise victory over Charlotte in tag team action, Naomi would face the Nature Girl in singles competition on SmackDown. This time, the B.A.D girl was found wanting, as despite a typically brash and confident performance, Charlotte was the better woman on the day. Naomi was left tapping out to the Figure-Eight, and will have to wait until SummerSlam to achieve a measure of revenge.
16. Kevin Owens (Last week No. 13)
Kevin Owens continues to languish in form this past week, with a mixed bag in consecutive tag team matches. On SmackDown, Owens paired with Seth Rollins to defeat rival Cesaro and Neville. But, it was not without consequence, as an attempted post-match attack saw him suffer a Red Arrow. This unwelcome conclusion led to another poor result on RAW, as this time Owens teamed with Sheamus in a loss to Cesaro and Randy Orton.
