#10! (Position Last Week: N/A)
Tyler Breeze (TheTylerWhoDied)
For Weeks Tyler Breeze has been a thorn in Roman Reign's side. After blind siding Reigns Tyler kept the game in his court by taunting Roman, but never getting close enough for Roman to get his hands on him. However that changed when Stephanie booked the match between the two at Unforgiven. No one knew what exactly to expect from Tyler Breeze since we'd never seen him wrestle in a SOOL match before. It turns out Tyler is actually pretty good. After reversing a Corner Spear Breeze put Reigns away with a Beauty Shot. Tyler Breeze has recently turned his attention to one Hardcore Champion, Goldust if his words were clear on Smackdown. Tyler faced off with the deranged Luke Harper in what was a very physical match that ended with Tyler Breeze connect with the Super Kick to put Harper away. At this point Breeze had yet to lose a match. You can bet the Rated R Superstar will be looking to change this on the upcoming Smackdown
#9 (Position Last Week: #3)
Adrian Neville (Harmonkiller93)
It pains me to do this but Neville takes a huge drop this month. Not because he had a BAD month. But...well, you'll see later. Adrian Neville took on the undefeated Batista on Raw 108. Adrian Neville would be the guy to end Batista's streak that night giving him so momentum. The next week on Smackdown Adrian Neville also defeated Stardust giving him even more momentum going into Unforgiven! However, Neville was left to defend the Tag Team Titles alone against the number 1 contenders Cesaro and Kidd. Neville fought hard but the numbers game was just took much for him to keep up with. Shortly after losing the match, Adrian's partner Finn Balor made his appearance. Neville demanded an explaination on why Balor no showed the match. However all he recieved was a clothesline and a Coup De Grace by a eerily quiet Balor. On Raw Neville made it perfectly clear to Finn that if he ever pulled something like that on him again that there'd be consequences before his match with JBL. Unfortunately for Neville JBL was just too much for him to overcome and he lost via Powerbomb. Officially a singles superstar now Adrian Neville looks to take his game to the next level as he takes on Mr. Anderson on the upcoming Raw
#8 (Position Last Week: N/A)
Enzo & Cass (LazyEye513 & TheTylerWhoDied)
New blood to SOOL Enzo and Cass have already established themselves as arrogant, clowns, and surprisingly successful. Drafted to Raw Enzo & Cass with no experience under their belt in SOOL taunted the Hardcore Champion, Goldust and Stardust. Lucky for them that night they were able to back it up as Enzo Amore hit Stardust with the top rope splash for the win. The next week Enzo & Cass took on Cesaro & Kidd to be come number 1 contenders against The Royal Blood. However things did not go Enzo and Cass's way as Tyson Kidd tapped Enzo out in the middle of the ring. Enzo and Big Cass were obviously irate about their loss and took their anger and sarcastic attitude into Unforgiven. Debuting their new show: Word on the Street, Enzo & Cass welcome a new team to SOOL. The Lucha Dragons. In no time Enzo and Cass offended the two and recieved a lucha beat down. However Enzo & Cass shrugged off their slight misfortune and went on to defeat the Vaudevillians later that night. On Raw both men were in seperate matches, but still successful. Big Cass defeated Roman Reigns while Enzo teammed with Stardust in Tag Team Turmoil against Simon Gotch and Kalisto. Enzo picked up the win against Kalisto and earned the team of Stardust & Goldust a match against Enzo & Cass to name the new number 1 contenders against the Tag Team Champs, Cesaro in Kidd. This match will be happening on the upcoming Smackdown. Will history repeat itself? Or have the Hardcore Champ and his brother learned some new tricks?
#7 (Position Last Week: #8)
Leo Kruger (Harmonkiller93)
Leo Kruger continues to prove why he's been one of the most dominant people here in SOOL this passing year. On Raw 108 Kruger took on Edge and the World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose in a triple threat match. Men were slammed on ladders, there were suicide dives a plenty, and the tables were broken. However at the end of the night it was Kruger who emerged victorious by pinning Edge. Kruger would not fight Sheamus on Smackdown, claiming that Sheamus was beneath his time. Maybe saving his energy wasn't a bad idea because it was Kruger who came out of the wreckage at Unforgiven the winner and still the champ. Bodies were broken as Kruger, Owens, Rusev, and Harper slugged it out but Kruger pinned Luke to retain the title. On this passing Smackdown Stephanie brought out Dean Ambrose and Leo Kruger to talk about leading the Smackdown roster. However bringing two men like Kruger and Dean together proved to be a horrible idea as the two men traded words back and forth until eventually a punch was thrown and an all out brawl happened. Later in that night Kruger faced off against Ambrose in a psychical match that would not go Kruger's way as he fell to the Dirty Deeds. However Kruger best put that loss out of his mind as he has one last battle with Owens, Harper, and Rusev left. Will he win again? Tune into Smackdown.
#6 (Position Last Week: N/A)
JBL (Imagohard2nite)
JBL hasn't been featured on this list in a while but he rejoins in a very big way. On Raw JBL faced off against Bam Bam. Before the match JBL talked a lot of trash. Sadly for him he couldn't back it up as Bam Bam put him down. The next week on Smackdown JBL took on the undefeated HHH. No one expect JBL to win but JBL proved everyone wrong and pulled out the win against HHH, pinned the Intercontinental Champion. JBL went into what was called "The Most Personal Match In SOOL" with AJ Styles. Many picked Styles to win the match but once again JBL proved them wrong by powerbombing Styles on a ladder and pinning him. The next week JBL came out and confronts Shane McMahon who was presenting the SOOL Championship to the SOOL Universe. JBL was a little less than happy about being picked so low on the draft list (He wasn't the only mad about that) and he demanded that he be given a shot at HHH's title. Shane, while being quite clear that JBL watch his tone or he'd be looking for work else where, made the match officially. He also made it official that JBL would be facing Neville right there, right now. JBL continued his hot streak however and defeated Neville. JBL has a head of steam going towards Halloween Havoc at the moment. But will his momentum last? We'll see.
#5 (Position Last Week: N/A)
Goldust (Texas King Pig)
Goldust won the Hardcore Championship from Roman Reigns back at Summerslam. Since then Goldust has been a force to behold. While Goldust Tag Team aspirations have started off rock, losing to Enzo & Cass, Goldust has been great in singles action. Goldust defeated Simon Gotch on Smackdown 108 to start off the show. Goldust then went on to defend his title against both Batista and The Miz in a triple threat match at Unforgiven. After Batista disposed of The Miz he went into the ring and try and finish off Goldust. However it was Batista who got finished off via "Super Cross Rhodes" and Goldust came up with the win. Goldust now has a new foe in Tyler Breeze gunning for him and to add more pressure he and Stardust will tag against the team that beat them weeks ago, Enzo & Cass. We'll see how well Goldust handles pressure soon enough.
#4 (Position Last Week: N/A)
Cesaro & Kidd (MrSinister & Vicess)
Cesaro and Kidd haven't spoken once since becoming a tag team. Not that they need to, their actions have spoken more than enough for them. Cesaro and Kidd took on the Vaudevillians on Raw 108. Cesaro and Kidd came out victorious and would move on to face Enzo & Cass on Smackdown. The match went back and forth at times but it ended with Kidd taping Enzo Amore out to pick up the win. There wasn't much hope for Neville to overcome Cesaro and Kidd by himself and for good reason. Neville just couldn't fight off both and Cesaro and Kidd defeated him to become the new Tag Team Champions. On Raw Cesaro took on Sin Cara and the two put on a great matches that ended with Cesaro picking up the win. The two look towards their first match as the Tag Champs against the newly formed team, Team Over. I Mean Team Overpowered. I mean...the Apex Enigmassssssss. Sigh. Please don't lose you two -_-
#3 (Position Last week: N/A)
Bam Bam Bigelow (Texas King Pig)
Bam Bam has come out of nowhere with new found aggression that seems to be working to his advantage. On Raw 108 Bam Bam came out in a bad mood. Throwing shots at the crowd, World Heavyweight Champion Dean Ambrose, and even Bray Wyatt. JBL would come out to interrupt him would would prove to be a bad idea as Bam Bam defeated him. The next week on Smackdown, Bray responded to Bam Bam's rant. The two exchanged words and the match was set for Unforgiven. One shouldn't take his eyes off the prizes though because Bam Bam would lose his match with Daniel Bryan that night. Bam Bam did not let that get him down though and swore victory over Wyatt at Unforgiven. And victory he received. Bam Bam countered the Sister Abigail and pinned Wyatt one, two, three. Still not satisfied Bam Bam came out to rant once again on Raw. Trash talking Batista, Finn Balor, Stephanie McMahon, and of course Dean Ambrose. Bam Bam also trash talked Shane, not being happy with his low pick in the draft. Bam Bam was place in a triple threat match against two of the men he trashed talk, Finn Balor and Batista. Bam Bam backed up what he said though and pinned Balor to pick up the win. Bigelow is on a roll, and honestly, I'm afraid of anyone who gets in his way.
#2 (Position Last Week: 2)
Dean Ambrose (LazyEye513)
Dean Ambrose was invited to be on Miz Tv on Raw 108. Dean talked about his match with Alberto Del Rio and how important it was that he won the match. Because if Dean were to lose, Raw would take the World title. Dean answered question after question with the Miz before ending the interview by hitting The Miz with Dirty Deeds. In his defense, The Miz started it. Later that night he went against fellow Smackdown member, the United States Champion Leo Kruger and of course, his rival Edge. Dean went to war with both men but could not pick up the win as Edge was pinned by Kruger. The next week The Miz was given a chance at revenge as he squared off against Ambrose. However he would have to take his revenge another day as Ambrose defeated the Miz. Ambrose then went into Unforgiven with Smackdown's future on his back. Dean and Alberto squared off against each other in a Two out of Three Falls match. Alberto picked up the first fall after thirty minutes of fighting. However Dean battled back, picking up two pins in a row to retain the title for himself AND Smackdown. On Smackdown Dean was called out to the ring along with Kruger to talk. Which turned to anger and led a brawl that security had to break up. The two met again later that night and Ambrose emerged the victor. Dean now knows the number one contender to his title is his former Shield brother Seth Rollins. But he shouldn't focus too much on that, he has to prepare for the always dangerous Daniel Bryan.
#1 (Position Last Week: N/A)
Seth Rollins (Mr Sh4dow87)
Seth Rollins made a CLEAN SWEEP of the last month. And never speaking a word as he did it. Seth Rollins took on Luke Harper on Raw 108. He would go on to defeat Luke via the Pedigree. On Smackdown Seth Rollins took on his former Shield member and rival Roman Reigns. In the extreme rules match both men were taken to the limit, however after hitting Roman with the Pedigree on a chair Seth won the match. Seth and Daniel Bryan had an amazing match at Unforgiven that went back and forth constantly. However after two corner kicks Seth picked up ANOTHER win. Steph took notice of this and pit Edge and Seth Rollins against each other in a ladder match to determine who would face Dean Ambrose at Halloween Havoc. Edge and Seth Rollins destroyed each other but just like every other match...Seth came out the winner. Seth has a full head of steam as he races towards Halloween Havoc and Dean Ambrose. Is there anyone who can stop Seth Rollins? I think a certain someone might give a "HELL YEAH!" To my question.
