WWE 2025 March Week 3 Power Ranking
10. Naomi
Naomi came on SmackDown and beat down Jade, which cost her a match with Liv. Jade has been getting the better of Naomi for weeks. It's nice to see Naomi fight back. Naomi is an experienced and skilled wrestler. It doesn't matter how big Jade is; Naomi is proving it.
9. Jey Uso
Jey Uso beat Austin Theory with one spear. Jey was too over-leveled for Austin Theory. He didn't even break a sweat, so he was able to beat up Gunther, too, after the match. Jey Uso even snatched Gunther's title. Jey Uso is ready, and everyone who has doubted him has found out the hard way.
8. Damian Priest
Damian Priest had been laid out by Drew multiple times. However, this week, he finally got to fight Drew fairly. It was Drew vs. Nakamura vs. Jimmy vs. Priest, and Priest came out on top. He proves that, in a fair fight, he is the top dog.
7. Drew
Unfortunately, the fight is not always fair. Later that night, Drew finds Damian and knocks him out again. Now that Drew has focused his attention on Damian, there has been a role reversal. It used to be that Damian was always there to capitalize on Drew's mistakes, but now, Drew is around every corner, waiting to catch Damian slipping.
6. Liv Morgan
Liv Morgan has long since proven herself as a World Championship-caliber wrestler. However, even for someone as accomplished as Liv, it seemed unlikely she would be able to beat Jade Cargill. Jade is the closest thing the WWE has to a real Amazon, and Jade rarely ever loses. However, Liv was able to stay alive with grit and crafty wrestling until an opportunity presented itself, and she capitalized and defeated Jade. Liv continues to impress. Watch her.
5. Bron Breakker
Bron Breakker faced a former Universal and two-time NXT world champion with loads more experience than he has. If that wasn't enough, Bron also had to deal with Balor's buddies on Judgement Day. Still, Bron overcame all that and won the match. Bron is strong as an ox and as intense as it gets, and he gets more experienced by the day. It's gonna take a lot to wrestle the IC title away from him.
4. Penta
In the first Raw match of the night, Penta and Ludwig had a no-disqualification match to settle their feud. It was brutal, and Kiser was a nasty opponent, but Penta overcame and proved he could take the heat. Now it looks like Penta has set his eyes on the IC title. He is acting quickly in WWE.
3. Dakota Kai
Ivy Nile attacked Dakota for a little while, but Dakota did not forget. Ivy put up a good fight, but Dakota is just so much better than she is at this point in Ivy's career. Even American Made coming out to interfere couldn't stop the butt-whooping Dakota Kai was putting on Ivy. Kai won the match, but the question is, where does she go from here? Will she get another crack at Lyra?
2. Rey Mysterio & Dragon Lee
Firstly, a shoutout to the Creeds, who have been involved in the best tag team matches in the last few weeks. However, Rey and Dragon Lee were just too much for them. They were taking the creed's best shots, reversing them, and flipping them around. Rey and Dragon Lee might have given them vertigo with all the whirlwind offense they used to defeat the Creed Brothers.
1. The Street Profits
The Profits fought the Garzas, and the Garzas fought so much better than expected. However, it wasn't enough. Dawkins was phenomenal in rallying and running through the Garzas, but Montez did something otherworldy to win this match. The Garzas were about to do gorilla press Montez Ford off the top turnbuckle, and he just flipped out of their hands and landed on his feet in the ring. I've never seen anything like it. He then beat them both up, and his front the Heavens finisher to win the match.
Match of the Week
Dragon Lee & Rey Mysterio vs. American Made
This match was insane. These teams pushed each other to bring out their best performances. Dragon Lee jumped over the ropes to deliver hurricanranas, the Creeds showed a scary amount of athleticism and agility, and Rey Mysterio moved around like it was 2006. If you missed it, this match is definitely worth going back to.
Promo of the Week
John Cena
Cena cut what will probably be a promo of the year candidate. In his first heel promo, he didn't make any crazy changes or come out in all-black; he spoke from the heart. After years of carrying the company without so much as a frown, he finally put down the weight and told the WWE Universe what he really thinks of them. He said they were terrible people who booed him no matter what. They booed him that night, and he said, "See, you are awful people. He talks about trying to please them and be their hero and how it was never enough, and he's absolutely right.
The audience turned on Cena for being good for rising to the occasion and proving himself, and he said he wouldn't stay silent anymore. He's done caring what the audience thinks. They had a toxic relationship, and he's ending it. But he wasn't done. He also made pointed out that the Let's Go Cena people are just as guilty because they used him to make themselves feel better, but as much as he gave to them, they never actually gave anything back. John said they just always wanna know what they are gonna get. Who cares about Cena? John Cena has decided to focus on only himself, and to be honest, he looks broken and sad. However, that just further shows how much he has reached his breaking point. Even Super Cena has a breaking point. I guess he's human, after all.
Segment of The Week
Cody and Cena Meet Again.
John Cena's promo was brilliant enough, but when Cody got there, it got even better. When Cody came out, it was as if John had been caught doing something wrong. Cody stood there in his element of power and ran down John Cena, saying he wasn't even a worthy opponent at this point. Cody said he didn't even want to face this John Cena. He wanted the old Cena because he would run through this version of John Cena. John Cena was in such emotional turmoil that he didn't even say anything back to Cody.
Cody is not wrong; this version of Cena is far from Super Cena. However, Cody forgets that animals are most dangerous when they are cornered, and people are no different. If John is willing to sell his soul to his enemy for the title, he will do anything that is dangerous for Cody. However, it's very impressive that Cody has actually established John Cena as an underdog.
Funny Moment of the Week
Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens is a ridiculous attempt to stop Randy from seeking vengeance on him. He apologized to Randy and said he had forgiven Randy, too. Then he asked if they could be tag team partners. It was a laughable and brown-nosing attempt to stop Orton's rage. Orton felt the same way. He laughed it off and vowed to kick Kevin Owens's head off.
Fit of the Week
Zelina Vega
Zelina was stunning in her red attire on Smackdown this week.
NXT Standout of the Week
Trick Williams
Trick Williams had an underground match with Eddy Thorpe, where you could only win by submission or knockout. Trick Williams went into the fire and came out victorious after beating Thorn so badly that the ref had to pull him off. Then Trick Williams called out the champion and started brawling with him, and he fought Ja'von Evans, too. Trick already had the mic, charisma, and wrestling skills, but now he is showing a new level of violence. His rise to stardom isn't an if it's a when.
Show of the Week
