Post Summer Slam wrestling rankings – 16th to 22th position
After the last week, WWE has ranked Kane at the 1stspot, John Cena on 2nd, Sheamus at the 3rdposition, Randy Orton on 4th, Nexus on 5th, Big Show at the 6thplace, Miz on 7th, Rey Mysterio on 8th, Dolph Ziggler on 9th, Melina on 10th, Team Lay – Cool on 11th, Dashing Cody Rhodes on 12th, Kofi Kingston on 13th, Edge on 14th and Hart Dynasty at the 15th position.
The two time All-American amateur wrestling champion Jack Swagger is on the 16th position in the rankings chart. Jack Swagger topped the wrestling charts when he became the former World Heavy Weight Champion after cashing in his Money in the Bank contract on Chris Jericho. He defeated Chris Masters after making him submit to the dreaded submission hold called the Ankle Lock on WWE Superstars. However, it will be a tough competition when Jack Swagger will clash against Ballin on Friday Night Smack Down.
Former Divas Champion Alicia Fox has dropped in wrestling rankings and has landed on the 17th position. It occurred after Melina defeated her to become the new Diva Champion at Summer Slam.
Christian on the other hand impressed all and sundry when he defeated the sinister Scotsman, Drew McIntyre with an injured arm to retained his 18th position. Just when Christian was celebrating his hard earned victory, Dashing Cody Rhodes attacked him from behind. Dashing Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre gave Christian a beating of a life time and knocked him unconsciousness. At present, Christian urgently needs to find a tag team partner if he hopes to improve his wrestling rankings next week.
It is the controversial Straight Edge Society who is on the 19th position. Straight Edge Society was humiliated at Summer Slam when the largest athlete of the world, the 500 pounder, Big Show piled bodies of its members in the ring and pinned them to win the grueling fight. However some threatening remarks by C M Punk really worked and Luke Gallows and Serena managed to defeat Kelly Kelly and Big Show in a mixed tag team match on Friday Night Smack Down.
The high flying Evan Bourne who was out of action last week has bagged the 20th position. Evan is one of the few rising wrestling superstars on Monday Night RAW but he constantly needs to stay in action if he hopes to improve his rankings in the days to come.
After the explosive Summer Slam, wrestling fans are talking about the arrival of the new wrestler, Alberto Del Rio who has come out of nowhere to grab the 21st position. This great descendant of the Mexican kings has impressed everyone on his debut. Alberto Del Rio fought his first match against the master of 619, the ultimate underdog, Rey Mysterio and defeated him convincingly after trapping him in a submission hold. Many pundits believe that wrestling fans can expect some fireworks in the next few weeks on Friday Night Smack Down after Alberto Del Rio dominates and decimates some more wrestlers in the ring. The arrival of Alberto Del Rio has changed the power structure on Smack Down and has included a new power player in an already complex situation.
It is the sinister Scotsman who is on the 22nd position this week. Drew McIntyre was embarrassed and beaten by an injured Christian on Friday Night Smack Down. Drew is famous for his contacts with the wrestling establishment, especially with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. Drew McIntyre was called the “Chosen One” when he debuted in the ring. After his defeat against Christian, it seems that Drew would need the help from Mr. Vince McMahon to gain back his initial glory and the prestigious Inter Continental Championship.
