Welcome to a feature I like to call "Best in the World" rankings. They're not traditional power rankings per se, but they're rankings to see who is really the best in the world, a term bandied about like it's bottled water or something else really common. They're rankings decided by me, and don't you dare call them arbitrary lest I smack the taste out of your mouth. Without further ado, here's this week's list:

1. Daniel Bryan (Last week: 1) - Daniel Bryan is still the best in the world because I say so. DEAL WITH IT.

2. Rachel Summerlyn (Last week: Not ranked) - This is the third time the Strong Style Diva has landed on the blog today. She earned it, and I'm considering changing the name of this blog from "The Wrestling Blog" to "Rachel Summerlyn's International Blog of Paincakes and Triple H Hating."

3. The Big Show (Last week: 2) - Honestly, it took a Herculean effort from Summerlyn this weekend to knock Show off his perch of #2. I mean, did you listen to his commentary on Main Event? He's rocketed up to fourth-best commentator in WWE right now after Scott Stanford, Jim Ross and JBL. Yes, he's better than CM Punk in the commentary booth. DEAL WITH IT.

4. Baked macaroni and cheese (Last week: Not ranked) OFFICIAL HOLZERMAN HUNGERS SPONSORED RANKING - Gaze upon ye and despair, lactophobes!

5. Human Tornado (Last week: Not ranked) - Apparently, he returned to action at CZW this weekend, which allows me to bring up the fact that he once dunked on Evan Bourne (when he was still Matt Sydal) at an indie show.

6. Sara del Rey (Last week: 7) - Yeah, the WWE women didn't do anything of note this week, but I credit del Rey for having the good sense not to send them out to embarrass themselves.

7. The Internet (Last week: Not ranked) - Think no one won the Rams/Niners game yesterday? Then you weren't on Twitter after it was over.

8. Wrestling Is Fun! (Last week: Not ranked) - Big ups to them for yet another free iPPV coming up this weekend. You had better have a damn good excuse for not catching this.

9. Johnny Manziel (Last week: Not ranked) - I would have ranked Johnny Football a lot higher, but I have a sniper rifle trained on me at the order of Paul Finebaum. If you think he's just a radio host, THINK AGAIN.

10. Mark Henry (Last week: 10) - MARK HENRY FACTS: The Mark Henry app on the iPhone is a handy program for figuring out wig split probability in nearly any situation. They're still working the bugs out of it for Android though.
