If there's one thing wrestling fans know, it's that the only things that matter are wins and gold. Here at Wrestler Wrankings, we track the action on RAW, Smackdown, and pay-per-view (PPV) shows for an entire wrestling season to determine who is the greatest athlete in the world.
Sadly, there wasn't much actual wrestling action on WWE television this week, but one match in particular did stand out. Randy Orton and Chris Jericho squared off on RAW and predictably, the match was a great showcase for two of the best in the game. Unfortunately, the end of this sporting encounter was marred by interference that resulted in a Jericho win by disqualification. At that point, "The Viper" let loose with a refreshing show of frustration over the missed victory. Frankly, I'm surprised that more wrestlers don't show this kind of spirit. Orton has a right to be upset, as those two points vaulted Jericho over "The Apex Predator" in the Wrankings!
Luckily, this week brings Over the Limit and the delicious PPV point bonus. Expect another big Wrankings shake up next week!
