WWE Raw Power Rankings: They’re Not Like Most Rankings

6. Bayley
Another great showing by Bayley this week as she carried Mandy Rose to a good a fight (and probably her best yet).
But of course, the big story is how she flat out refused to hug a meek and apologetic Sasha Banks, who entered the ring after the fight hoping to set the stage for some sort of reconciliation.
Bayley was in no mood to humor her friend. Despite the obvious inner conflict, Bayley’s done being treated like a sap. The outright rejection of the Legit Boss’s olive branch has added a whole new level of intrigue their now-inevitable WrestleMania match.

5. Seth Rollins
In last week’s rankings, I posited that Seth’s Gauntlet Match aura could only carry him so far without solid booking to back him. “Hopefully, the booking can remain focused and creative enough to benefit him,” were the exact words I used.
I’m beginning to fear that I was somewhat prophetic.
Being stuffed into a triple threat at WrestleMania is not a proper follow-up for a guy whose status shot through the roof by putting on the biggest babyface performance in Raw’s recent history. Seth feels lost in the shuffle this WM season.
That said, he put on a good performance on Monday. I especially appreciated his bemused expressions when Finn and Kurt Angle both got involved in his moment on Raw. He was me.
