How WWE Ranks Its Top Stars REVEALED

By Andy H Murray / May 15, 2023

Edge, Roman Reigns, and Bianca Belair are unsurprisingly ranked amongst WWE's top stars per the company's internal depth charts.

PWInsider has gotten hold of and published the SmackDown lists. The men's rankings have Edge down as the blue brand's top babyface and Reigns as the top heel, though Bobby Lashley, Solo Sikoa, and Austin Theory all place highly.

Babyfaces

1. Edge

2. Bobby Lashley

3. AJ Styles

4. Sheamus

5. Rey Mysterio

6. Santos Escobar

Heels

1. Roman Reigns (Undisputed WWE Universal Champion)

2. Solo Sikoa

3. Austin Theory

4. Karrion Kross

5. LA Knight

6. Grayson Waller

Perhaps the biggest talking point here is Solo Sikoa being slotted in as the number two heel. Positioned alongside Reigns, Solo will team with his fellow Bloodline member to challenge Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships at Night of Champions this week, as the stable's saga rumbles on.

Meanwhile, the SmackDown women's rankings look like this...

Babyfaces

1. Bianca Belair (SmackDown Women's Champion)

2. Charlotte Flair

3. Shotzi

4. Zelina Vega

5. Mia Yim

6. Aliyah

Heels

1. Asuka

2. Bayley

3. Lacey Evans

4. Scarlett

5. B-Fab

6. Tamina

Belair's SmackDown Women's Title program with Asuka looks set to continue through the next premium live event cycle. Lower-ranked Aliyah and Tamina are currently inactive, having not wrestled on WWE television in months.
