AEW has issued their updated Power Rankings going into tonight’s live Quake By The Lake edition of Dynamite from Minneapolis, MN.
“Hangman” Adam Page stayed at the top of the men’s rankings this week, but Powerhouse Hobbs took the #2 spot from Jay Lethal, moving up from #3 and sending Lethal down to #5, where Daniel Garcia was last week. Garcia moved up to #4 this week, while Chris Jericho moved from #4 to #3. Jericho will challenge Interim AEW World Champion Jon Moxley on tonight’s Dynamite special.
Toni Storm stayed at the top of the women’s rankings this week. Britt Baker knocked Kris Statlander off the chart, moving from #3 to #2. Athena moved from #5 to #3, while Anna Jay took the #4 spot from Jamie Hayter after not ranking last week. Nyla Rose took the #5 spot from Athena after not ranking last week. Newcomer Madison Rayne, who made her AEW in-ring debut on Friday’s Rampage with a win over Leila Grey, did not make the chart today, despite her title shot against AEW TBS Champion Jade Cargill on Dynamite tonight.
