1. Jerry Matthews (Last Ranking: N/A)
Surging into our number one spot this week is "The Evangelist" Jerry Matthews. *cue the boos* Jerry Matthews certainly left quite a few impressions on quite a few people this past show. First, he managed to take out and injure Dan Stein after Stein was able to defeat Jack Napier, costing Stein the next couple of weeks of his career. Then, the Alabamian and hisbag boyDeacon would attack Jonathan Collins, eventually going as far as tying him up to a fence and running him over with a limo, injuring Collins's arm and managing to piss off Shinji Uchikawa in the process. Then, the Reverend would go toe-to-toe with the EXODUS Pro World champion, the match eventually ending with a no contest, but Shinji Uchikawa would get some revenge for his mentor, locking in OMEGA-16. Yes, the Reverend was certainly a very busy man at the last episode of EXODUS. Now, he has to face Shinji Uchikawa in what some call the sleeper match of the night.
2. Zero McHannon (Last Ranking: 1)
The EXODUS Pro World champion drops a spot after going to a no contest with the man who finished in first in the rankings this week. Zero also managed to be found backstage talking to former tag team partner Zack Lifer about Lifer's match and the Honor Cup. At the end of the show, Zero managed to team with Strike (for a few seconds), before the two got at each other's throats, clearly the tension of their impending match at the next iPPV in Japan getting to both men. On EXPRO #8, Zero McHannon will face yet another challenge as he takes on one half of the new tag team champions in "The Big L" Steve Lenton in what is sure to be a great match!
3. Zack Lifer (Last Ranking: N/A)
Zack Lifer finally did it. After joining the company a couple of months ago, even though he was siding with LEGION, Zack Lifer came looking for gold and he has finally gotten it. After fighting Johnny Cannon in a great back and forth contest, Lifer would take the opening and would connect with "Forced Suicide" before picking up the victory, the International title, and a spot in the Honor Cup. And now, Zack Lifer has his sights set on the World title. The road to the World title truly starts for Lifer at EXPRO #8 as he defends his newly won title against Jaime Alejandro, who is replacing Dan Stein in the tournament. Can Lifer have a successful defense or will his "luck" run out?
4. Trouble (Last Ranking: N/A)
The end result is all that matters, right? Well, guess the team of Steve Lenton and Wulf Erikssen (Trouble) had a great end result, ending up becoming the brand new EXODUS Pro Tag Team champions! Unfortunately, some of that end result wasn't so great for Trouble as they accepted a "three falls" challenge, where each fall had something with it. After losing falls 1 and 2 (pride and Honor Cup), Trouble was able to pull off the massive upset and FINALLY defeat the Turks to become the new tag team champions! The road to Battle Without Honor or Humanity is not an easy one as both members of Trouble will be in singles action! Steve Lenton looks to pull a slight upset and defeat EXODUS Pro World champion Zero McHannon, while his counterpart...has the show off. Okay then.
5. Blake Jones (Last Ranking: 6)
And Blake Jones makes his way to the top 5 once more! The Philly Young Gun was able to successfully defend his San Diego Bay championship and managed to earn himself a spot in the Honor Cup after defeating XAVIOR. He also managed to get a few shots in on Brett Sands earlier on in the night, letting him and us know that he hasn't forgotten what Brett did to his best friend, Sylar Drake. But, Blake has to get ready for another title defense on EXPRO #8 as he puts the title on the line in his first Block B match against the man he started this small winning streak against, former International champion Jimmy Riley. Can Jones retain the title once more and freeze it for the rest of the tourney? Or will Riley pick up his second title here in EXODUS?
6. Seymour Almasy (Last Ranking: N/A)
I don't how many people can actually say they have defeated Magnus Gunner in their debut, but Seymour Almasy has either joined or started up that list. The mentor to former G&M member Ryuji Kamigawa came to EXODUS with one main mission in mind and was able to get part of that mission started by defeating Magnus Gunner, earning himself a spot in the Honor Cup and knocking Gunner out of it. Now, Seymour Almasy gets his first Block B match facing a rather surprising entrant in Cthulu Jones. Can Almasy get a streak started or will the detective put him down?
7. Abby Park (Last Ranking: N/A)
Ah, Abby Park. How these rankings have missed you. Abby Park finally got right back on track with her EXODUS return, defeating Heather Halliwell to earn a spot in the Honor Cup and drive Heather even closer to insanity. Nice job. Park will not have an easy group in front of her as she is set to face off with all three members of GoW, starting with Gabriel Gambino at EXPRO #8. Can Park pull off what some may call an upset and continue to take on the three GoW members? Or will Gambino's veteran skill be key in a victory for him?
8. Brett Sands (Last Ranking: 9)
"Big Brother" moves up another spot after pulling off what most people (except himself) are calling the upset of the tourney. After injuring Sylar Drake the show before, Brett Sands, through some underhand tactics, was able to enter the ring and roll up former EXODUS World champion Adrien Cochrane to advance to Block A. Oh, God. Now you know he's not gonna stop bragging about it. The loudmouth out of Ohio now looks forward to his first opponent in his block, Anna Molly. Can Brett Sands pull off yet another victory or will Anna Molly stop the Ohioan in his tracks?
9. Fiona Rourke (Last Ranking: 4)
Fiona Rourke drops a couple of spots even after defeating a mountain of a man in Whisper. The Strong Style Seraph didn't seem to be having the greatest lead in to the match. Her fiancee getting run over and having his arm probably broken. Getting into yet another small fight with Sally Talfourd. Getting attacked by Kira T. Zeppeli afterwards. But, she managed to put all of that to the side and put out yet another brilliant performance as she earns herself a Honor Cup spot. This show, she will get her first Block C match up as she takes on the man who attacked her last show, Kira T. Zeppeli. Can the former World champion continue her winning ways? Or will it be feeding time for Despair Guy?
10. Savannah Taylor (Last Ranking: N/A)
Savannah Taylor makes her first appearance on the rankings top 10 at number 10. Defeating Aria Dior in impressive fashion, the stunning blonde has managed to punch herself a ticket to the Honor Cup in quite possibly the toughest group possible. After a few up and down weeks, it seems as Savannah Taylor will be looking to ride this victory into another one as she faces the mountainous task of taking on one half of the former tag team champions, the Turks, Sally Talfourd. Will Savannah Taylor pull off a colossal upset or will she have yet another down week?
