WHAT YOU'RE SAYING

"You should put Stephanie in at No. 25 instead of Shane. She's the one that really won the match on Monday night."
-Trisha

"Do you guys really think Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak is in grave danger? He's gonna walk all over Mark Henry in the Casket Match."
-Brad L.

"I love it. Cen'a back on top where he belongs."
-Amy

"What's it going to take to get Edge back in the Top 5? I guess scrambling Foley's brains is not enough."
-David

"Mark Henry is a monster! Top 10 is not far off for the World's Strongest Man."
-Scott

"Wow, Helms' nose looks like it's in bad shape. It's going to take some serious surgery to fix that thing."
-J.J.

FAREWELL...

The following Superstar(s) failed to maintain their spot on the POWER 25 this week:

Tatanka
Wins over the likes of Frankie Ciasto will not keep Tatanka on the POWER 25.


 

KEEP AN EYE ON...

Keep an eye on the following Superstars during the upcoming week:

Mr. McMahon
If Mr. McMahon can build off his win over HBK, he may be joining his son on the POWER 25.

Paul Burchill
SmackDown's buccaneer looked good against William Regal. More of that will land him on the POWER 25 soon.

Goldust
The Bizarre One keeps winning on HEAT.
