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) - He's been so good lately that he's been reminding people of the long defunct Bryan Danielson.

2. Mark Henry (Last Week: 2) - Mark Henry don't retire. Mark Henry lets wrestling know when he's done with it.

3. Rachel Summerlyn (Last Week: 3) - Seriously, I can't take how adorable her bromance with Jessicka Havok is. Here are two wrestlers who could legit kill me, and they're all bubbly 'n shit with each other. I CAN'T.

4. AJ Lee (Last Week: Not Ranked) - I know it's sad that she and Kaitlyn are already WWE's Iron Women, but maybe that match last night will prove to WWE that gender doesn't matter.

5. Sami Callihan (Last Week: Not Ranked) - #ThankYouSami

6. Kevin Steen (Last Week: Not Ranked) - He's not only still wrestling's mack daddy and zoo enthusiast, but he's actually dropping some knowledge on the Twittah machine.

7. Smorgasbords (Last Week: Not Ranked) - The only flaw is that if you go to a really high-quality smorgasbord, you can't eat everything on the spread without feeling like an overinflated balloon. PS, don't you ever call one a buffet, you heathens.

8. Danny Green (Last Week: Not Ranked) - If I told you a former Cleveland Cavalier would take over the NBA Finals this year, well, 11 out of 10 dudes would've swore it'd be LeBron James. Apparently, that's not the case this year.

9. Charade (Last Week: Not Ranked) - Mad ups for the man for coming back from a broken skull.

10. Sara del Rey (Last Week: 10) - SARA DEL REY FACT: She ghostwrote Dear Abby from 1997 to 2005.
