WWE Power Rankings: January 25, 2013

5- CM Punk (Previous Rank- 5)

CM Punk

An eventful week for Punk, he gained a win against Billy Gunn and found out that he will be the number one entrant at Royal Rumble. He also had a couple of confrontations with Kane which held a potential future match between the two. The odds will be stacked against Punk at Rumble but you can never count out the Straight Edge superstar.

4- Daniel Bryan (Previous Rank- 4)

Daniel Bryan

Popularity of Daniel Bryan seems to be doubled after the swerve against the Wyatt Family. He pulled off some great promos against the creepy guys throughout the week and Bryan heads into Rumble to end the feud once and for all as he will go one on one with Bray Wyatt.

3- Randy Orton (Previous Rank- 2)

Randy Orton

After a surprise loss against Kofi Kingston last week, Orton got more embarrassment before the Rumble when he has chased off by John Cena on Raw. Orton hasn’t been showing any signs of a worthy champion and he might be heading to take a title drop at the Rumble.

2- The Shield (Previous Rank- 1)

The Shield

The hounds of Justice had a solid week this week also and surprisingly seemed on the same page as well. But there is going to be a lot of internal tension among the trio when they come up against other at the Rumble because after all its every man for himself. The trio will be “the” ones to watch out at Rumble as they could give the most surprising headline from the Battle Royal.

1- John Cena (Previous Rank-3 )

John Cena

John Cena heads into the Rumble with a lot of momentum after manhandling the WWE World Heavyweight champion at Raw. The Cenation leader will be looking to get the title from the Viper’s hand as Brock Lesnar and Batista also makes rounds for the coveted price.
