Welcome to the power rankings for each division of WWE Raw.
These are the power rankings for each division on Monday Night Raw for this following week. Each division would be ranked based on storyline progression and win-loss record as of 2017. Also, each division would be divided by contenders and pretenders, to differentiate the challengers in their respective division. I’ll also highlight a specific superstar in each division and explain their ranking based on their actions. Win/Loss record is provided by CageMatch.Net.
Each superstar or tag team can move up or down the rankings based on victory, defeat or storyline progression.
On this past episode of Raw, a few superstars made their marks in the ring, a few made their mark after the match ended, and a few proclaimed to the world that they’ll make their mark at WrestleMania 33.
Let’s see how the rankings shape up this week.

The Raw Cruiserweight Division
Highlights of the Division
Neville has still been one of the best-booked champions in the WWE today. Rarely loses in non-title matches and hasn’t been defeated in singles action since his debut in the Cruiserweight Division.
Jack Gallagher has won the most matches out of any WWE superstar on TV since the new year. He’s clearly been the MVP of the division.
Austin Aries has been groomed from the very start to be the face of this division. In the short-term, it’ll be between him and Neville on who’s the dominate cruiserweight in the WWE.
Tony Nese will need to string a lot of wins in order to be considered a true title threat for the Cruiserweight Championship.
Brian Kendrick has been excellent in hovering behind the scenes waiting for his opportunity to rise back to the top of the division. His feud with Akira Tozawa will keep both men at the upper-echelon of the division.
