Based on THEIR BOOKING.

Tier zero - special ocassion, or if you beat them its headlines
  • Brock lesnar
  • Undertaker
  • HHH
  • The rock
  • Sting
Tier 1 - main event main stays, if they got the title at a ppv it wouldnt be shocking
  • Cena
  • Rko
  • Roman reigns
  • Seth rollins

Tier 2 - they spend time in the main event but arent a real threat for the title. Win way more than lose but arent a tier 1 guy. They could be rebuilt to tier one without much problem, and add credibility to mid card belts as champ.
  • Alberto del rio
  • Bray wyatt
  • Dean ambrose
  • Kevin owens
  • Rusev
  • Sheamus
  • Aj styles

Tier 3 - midcard belt guys, whom could win us or ic title on raw and it doesnt bring the belts down. If they havent held belts yet, theyre booked to look very strong
  • Braun strowman

  • Y2j
  • dvon
  • Erick rowan
  • Goldust
  • Jimmy uso
  • Jey uso
  • Kalisto
  • Kofi
  • Luke harper
  • Neville
  • Stardust
  • Xavier woods
  • Rusev

Tier 4 - take pin falls to make the above guys stronger, not a real threat but not total jobbers
  • Big show
  • Cesaro
  • Dolph ziggler
  • Heath slater
  • Kane
  • Mizark
  • The miz
  • The ryback
  • Titus oneil
Tier 5 - straight jobbers, not a treat to any one
  • Adam rose
  • Bo dallas
  • Curtis axel
  • Jack swagger
  • Mizark
  • King barrett
  • R truth

Disagree with Ziggler not being a threat. Wyatt is certainly where Rio and Ambrose are. Still think Y2J can be champ and no one would be shocked.

Everything else makes sense.Nice work, interesting thread idea.

The way Sting has been booked in his WWE run, he's not even close to being Tier 0 anymore.:mjcry:

Also, many people would be surprised to see Bray Wyatt win a belt since that would mean he'd actually win a feud for a change.:russ:

Anyway, Big Show, Cesaro and Ziggler all need to move up to Tier 3, half of Tier 3 actually needs to move down to Tier 4 and I hate to say it but Mark Henry is straight jobber status these days, not even close. In fact, you can switch him with R-Truth because R-Truth actually gets meaningful wins on occasion.

Ziggler loses waaaay too much to be a threat and isnt sniffing either midcard belt.

And wyatt is about to face brock at mania and even when he's taking pinfalls he seems like a serious threat...i hear you though.

If wyatt beats rio and ambrose at a ppv. its not an upset, thats an indicator to me.

City of Angels :blessed:
Cener is still in tier 0 because he actually loses so rarely. Bray has been booked like shyt he can't be in a tier with 4 former world champions. Ryback/Cesaro/Ziggler should be tier 3, goldust/stardust/woods/Rowan/dudleys tier 4

If sting came back tomorrow who would be worthy to face him though? He lost to HHH but it took, dx, nwo, goat level screwjob by ALL tier zero guys....thats a benchmark of his status.

Not your perception, but how THEYRE BOOKED do you legit think dolph ziggler and cesaro would be a threat to the ic title? And youre right about henry and truth

I'd add Cena to the top tier,he's in the company or Brock, Triple H and The Rock more than he is Bray and Seth. You need to add D Bry to tier 6 too :wow:

All kinds of guys in wrong sections

Based on THEIR BOOKING.

Tier zero - special ocassion, or if you beat them its headlines
  • Brock lesnar
  • Undertaker
  • HHH
  • The rock
  • Sting - At no point has he been booked like this in WWE. He's in tier 1 at BEST.
Tier 1 - main event main stays, if they got the title at a ppv it wouldnt be shocking
  • Bray wyatt - tier 2 at best, he's always losing
  • Cena - still tier 0
  • Rko
  • Roman reigns - tier 0
  • Seth rollins - lost all the time even as champ, was never a big deal when he lost

Tier 2 - they spend time in the main event but arent a real threat for the title. Win way more than lose but arent a tier 1 guy. They could be rebuilt to tier one without much problem, and add credibility to mid card belts as champ.
  • Alberto del rio
  • Dean ambrose
  • Kevin owens
  • Rusev - he's basically a jobber at this point. Would Reigns throw out any of the other guys in this tier out of the Rumble in 10 seconds? Hell nah.
  • Sheamus - probably should be higher
  • Aj styles - unknown

Tier 3 - midcard belt guys, whom could win us or ic title on raw and it doesnt bring the belts down. If they havent held belts yet, theyre booked to look very strong
  • Braun strowman - can't actually wrestle but they treat him like a tier 1/0 guy right now
  • Bubba ray - absolute jobber, LOST TO SWAGGER ON PRESHOW
  • Big e
  • Y2j
  • Dvon - same as Bubba
  • Erick rowan - too high, he's def the jobber of the Wyatts
  • Goldust
  • Jimmy uso
  • Jey uso
  • Kalisto
  • Kofi
  • Luke harper
  • Neville
  • Stardust - tier 4 at this point
  • Xavier woods

Tier 4 - take pin falls to make the above guys stronger, not a real threat but not total jobbers
  • Big show - too low
  • Cesaro - too low
  • Dolph ziggler - should be tier 2/3
  • Heath slater
  • Kane
  • Mizark :mjcry:
  • The miz
  • The ryback
  • Titus oneil
Tier 5 - straight jobbers, not a treat to any one
  • Adam rose
  • Bo dallas
  • Curtis axel
  • Jack swagger
  • King barrett
  • R truth
  • Tyler breeze
Tier 6 - constant deavors threat
  • Damien sandow
  • Darren young
  • Fandango
  • Tyson kidd
  • Zack ryder

He's a rag doll, he may as well sell like crazy to make real workers look good
that's what I was thinking. he can't talk, he can't act, he can't tell a story, his offense looks like shyt. literally the only thing he is good for is selling and making the other guy in the ring look good. plus he has a punchable face.

he's a natural jobber. he even has a jobber's name.



edit: this may sound like I'm hating, but I genuinely believe in this role he is more of an asset to the company.

Looking at this tier right here, isn't it crazy that Dolph, Miz, and Ryback either had the WWE title or were in main event/featured matches for the title, and now they're in the same tier with Slater and O'Neil :russ:? That's not even a slight to Slater or O'Neil either, as both of started getting some shine lately
