Ranking Every Raw WWE Superstar Shakeup Move From Worst To Best

14. The Ascension

At this point, it's actually a surprise that The Ascension weren't demoted to NXT rather than being drafted to Raw. It's also a slight shock WWE's creative team took the time to think about them in this Superstar Shakeup at all. They didn't before now.

Konnor and Viktor have done next-to-nothing since being picked by SmackDown in the 2016 WWE Draft, aside from mess around in backstage vignettes with Breezango. Honestly, they'd be better off scrapping their Illuminati-style gimmick and starting again in NXT.

On Raw, The Ascension can be expected to do the job for everyone they meet. There's a slim (oh so slim) chance they'll be given a brief push just because they're on a new show, but even that looks unlikely. It wouldn't last anyway, because their name is mud at this stage.
