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. Tony (Last Week: Not Ranked) - Tony was the young fan whose face Eddie Kingston got into at the Wrestling Is Cool show yesterday. Not only did he keep his cool in the face of a stark-raving lunatic, but he got a high five from Eric Corvis afterwards, and then he got to pick the Raffle-Mania winner, something which he did like a total boss. Here's to the little guy, who hopefully will go to more and more wrestling shows in the future.

2. Daniel Bryan (Last Week: 1) - It's gotten to the point where not even John Cena can deny Bryan's complete and totally dominant awesomeness. But be that as it may, he's not beating out a child this week, and I think even he would agree with that.

3. Mark Henry (Last Week: 3) - Look, I love The Shield as much as the next guy, but I am totally looking forward to Mark Henry shoving all three of them into his suitcase and tossing them into an active volcano, because THAT'S WHAT HE DO.

4. Rachel Summerlyn (Last Week: 2) - Hey, Guilty by Association 7 is finally out on video, so now everyone can see her final appearance at Anarchy Championship Wrestling. It's almost like she's not out recovering from an injury!

5. The Colony (Last Week: Not Ranked) - The fans behind me and to my right chanted "We want more!" after The Colony distributed ice cream to everyone in the crowd. How many other wrestling shows had dudes or dudettes distributing free frozen snacks at them at any point in history? Whatever number it is, it's a lot smaller in comparison to the ones that didn't. This is why we don't deserve nice things, and getting ice cream in a sweltering hot wrestling venue is the nicest possible thing. THE NICEST POSSIBLE THING. GOD.

6. Kevin Steen (Last Week: Not Ranked) - It takes major cajones to allow yourself to work over a dude's shoot-injured knee to win a match. Like, if I were Steen, I would've stayed away from Masada's knee, not gone after it with a FUCKING CANNONBALL and then finished with a Sharpshooter. I wouldn't have trusted myself, but that's why I'm not Kevin Steen.

7. AJ Lee (Last Week: 5) - AJ Lee's not the crazy one here. The people writing her story arcs have no fucking idea how real people act, which is why she goes from blubbering mess in one scene to stone cold cerebral troll goddess in another. But the troll goddess stuff, like ringing the bell early to distract Dolph Ziggler? That's all her, baby.

8. Leva Bates (Last Week: Not Ranked) - It's official. Leva Bates vs. the Estonian Thunder Frog will now headline Mjollnir Jam '13 at the Allfather Arena in Asgard.

9. Pizza (Last Week: Not Ranked)OFFICIAL HOLZERMAN HUNGERS SPONSORED ENTRY - After having been drained of most of my vital spirit by the oppressively hot Proving Grounds, I had to refuel with PIZZA. One spinach-and-tomato topped 10-inch pie later, and I was good to go. I know what you're thinking, but you're wrong. Tomatoes on top of a pizza with tomato sauce on it is not TOMATOVERLOAD. It's just the right amount of the fruit that thinks its a vegetable.

10. Sara del Rey (Last Week: 10) - SARA DEL REY FACT: del Rey is already lined up to train the Royal Baby to form an adorable but technically proficient tag team with one of the Queen's corgis.
