Oh, Shinsuke, who are you calling out to?

Since his loss to Seth Rollins at Fastlane, Nakamura has become must-see television the last few weeks on Monday Night RAW as he continues to hint towards a dream match against a certain someone. His new direction and promo work has reignited an interest in the King of Strong Style not seen since 2014. Are we reading too much into his words? Is he really speaking out to a cult of personality? I guess we'll find out at Survivor Series in Chicago. — DC

Last week, one of the world's best in the ring, Will Ospreay had an excellent showing in to-be-TNA Impact, beating both Josh Alexander and Eddie Edwards. This week, he's back in New Japan Pro Wrestling, appearing on a Super Junior Tag League show with his United Empire in a losing tag effort to some of their newer talents and Young Lions four-on-four. He made up for this by defending his IWGP United States (don't tell him it's not the United Kingdom) Championship against one of those new and rising stars in Shota Umino at Power Struggle. — JG

Riding a wave of nostalgia into the Top 10, Alex Shelley as IMPACT World Champion has delivered nothing but Total Nonstop Action. With another successful championship defense at Bound For Glory against Josh Alexander, Shelley is poised to lead IMPACT Wrestling back to the future under the TNA banner, as the rebranded company's first recognized World Champion since 2017. — DC

Big Time Becks still finds herself in the Top 10, after dropping the NXT Women's Championship to Lyra Valkyria at Halloween Havoc. Despite the loss, The Man defended her championship during her short reign more times than both Roman Reigns and Rhea Ripley in the calendar year. With Jade Cargill watching her NXT Halloween Havoc loss closely, Lynch could be positioned to be the first to work with the former TBS champion. — DC

Certainly the discussion on this one is going to stay civil and respectful. Let's get it out of the way. He cheated to win at Crown Jewel against Rey Mysterio to win the WWE United States Championship in his 5th match of the year, and 8th match ever. He's not on WWE television often. However, unlike a certain Head of the Table, we all know precisely where he's been when he's off WWE TV. We have to tip our hat: nobody's picked up the game this fast since Kurt Angle, and he's a natural heat magnet working either face or heel. He's just got "it", whatever "it" is. Let's hope that he's more of a presence as a champion. — JG

Maxwell Jacob Friedman finds himself outside the Top 10 looking in, despite being the AEW World Heavyweight champion. Questionable creative around his character, and a lack of ready-made heels to challenge him, severely stunted his championship run early on. And this never ending feud with Jay White and the Bullet Club Gold isn't doing him any favors. If AEW can't quickly pivot and stabilize the title scene, poor Maxwell may find himself becoming what he despises most: Mid. — DC

He said he wanted no more broken dreams, but he got one. In a hellacious challenge that came up short against WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, where he showed more of his frustrated edge, and somewhat got outshined once again by the Judgment Day via an attempted cash-in on Rollins, we have to believe that he is going to absolutely lash out on anyone and anything in his way this week. Stay tuned for Drew. — JG

Elton Prince and Kit Wilson have easily become the most entertaining and electric tag team in WWE. With an impressive win against the Brawling Brutes in a Donnybrook pub-style brawl match this week on SmackDown, Pretty Deadly continue to ascend the WWE tag team ranks. Could we soon see SmackDown-exclusive tag team championships again? And perhaps around the waists of these two tasty snacks? YES BOY! — CC

Sami Zayn finds himself in the middle of the rankings, much like his current position on the RAW roster. Despite wins on both RAW and at the pre-show for Crown Jewel, Sami lacks any creative direction at this point, which will stunt his advancement in the rankings. Still one of the most popular acts in WWE. — DC

With a win on RAW, DIY has definitely returned. We had some difficulty with this entry. Going back to the tag team reunion seemed in some ways like a step back. However, we have to look at what "back" actually was. Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano were floating around against the non-Gunther portions of Imperium. Gargano was otherwise barely on TV in some things that felt like "throw him in there why not" was the rationale, Ciampa was back and forth with The Miz. This step backward may be the step forward. Besides, DIY gets it done in the ring. — JG

Mami successfully defended her World Women's championship in a four-way at Crown Jewel, continuing her polarizing run as top women's wrestler in WWE. In order for the self-proclaimed most dominant Women's champion to rise higher, she will need to defend the championship more regularly, as well as involve herself in more interesting feuds with other women's wrestlers, instead of being thrown into larger Judgment Day stories. — CC

With wins against Ricochet at RAW and Nathan Frazer at NXT Halloween Havoc, Dominik Mysterio flies in at no. 17, right underneath his Mami. Dirty Dom's continued development week in, week out in front of the WWE Universe is unprecedented. He's raised the profile of the NXT North American championship, and made his appearances every Monday night must watch. Starting to build a case to be Heel of the Year. — CC

What can we say about John Cena that hasn't already been said? He's the undisputed GOAT. He returned full-time this summer during the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, which did him no favors in some Hollywood circles. He has spent his time since working with a young Solo Sikoa, and by doing so, Cena continues to give back to the WWE machine that created him. Something Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and countless others never fully did. — DC

The reigning AEW TNT Champion has not wrestled or defended since defeating Bryan Danielson on October 14th. He's all over AEW television, though. So many talents are in his orbit, be it by his side or facing his hateful scorn, that he stays in the power conversation. Will Adam Copeland eventually end up at his side like so many others that used to (or maybe still do) despise Christian? — JG

Whoa-oh! Cody defeated Damien Priest in a Bloodline-Judgment Day-Friends Of Cody ringside reunion at Crown Jewel to keep his side of the story going. The Saudi Arabia crowd was solidly behind the American Nightmare, as is the case everywhere he performs. As alluded to previously, might the road on this saga take a detour; a wrong left turn into Los Angeles, instead of directly towards Pensacola? — JG 

From one NXT Women's champion from across the pond to another, Lyra Valkyria has shown much promise while under WWE's developmental brand, NXT. We cannot ignore the significance of her championship win at Halloween Havoc against Becky Lynch. Potential springboard for her career. Hard worker, who rarely coasts through her matches seems poised to challenge herself as champion and continue bringing respect to the NXT women's roster. — CC

The Creed Brothers have become the standard for the NXT tag team division. They are world class athletes, and it shows. With wins this week against Alpha Academy in their RAW debut, and at Halloween Havoc in a Tables, Ladders and Scares match, it's refreshing to see a Steiner-esque style in an era of wrestling oversaturated with acrobats. Don't be surprised if they soon find themselves full-time on RAW. — CC

I don't really get Chase U. But credit where credit is due, the NXT audience seems to dig them, and they did pick up gold at Halloween Havoc. Curious to see where the team dynamic goes with obvious dissension in the ranks. Fun act, I guess. — DC

All they do is win, baby! Bullet Club Gold is all over AEW television. We haven't seen much of Juice Robinson himself in the ring lately since losing the Dynamite Diamond Ring final to MJF, but his character and promo work is really keeping this thing alive. Some like Jay White's character and presentation (I'm among them), some don't, but you can't question that he's on a roll. Pretty tough for anyone to out-character Juice Robinson, though. The Gunns are keeping up their end as the tag team of this ensemble and getting better every week. If Switchblade can find a way to connect with the audience, then big things are ahead for everyone here. — JG

Editor's note: Disregard the above. They suck.

At Crown Jewel, Iyo Sky successfully defended her WWE Women's Championship against Bianca Belair with heavy interference at the end from the returning Kairi Sane. Iyo as Champion has been overshadowed by Rhea Ripley on Raw, as well as many of the SmackDown women's Superstars. This may be about to change. Perhaps with Kairi at Iyo's side, Iyo can gather some additional chemistry from ringside, find a groove, and start to overtake in the ranks and with the crowd. Meanwhile, what's in the cards for the stunned-at-Crown-Jewel Bayley and the not-on-that-show Dakota Kai? Will Damage Control last at all, or will this become a reincarnation of Threedom (speaking of, what's the contract status of Mayu Iwatani)? — JG
