Squared Circle: WWE League: Week 4
Last week saw Chris Masters take a huge bound up the table and Kofi Kingston retain his position at the top once again. How does Week 4 measure up? Especially when it is considered Edge ended up wrestling four matches this week with one of them being a World Championship defense at a PPV.
For the first time ever the WWE League takes a PPV into account, how much will this affect the outcome?

Edge smashed the competition this week with four victories out of four matches and a defense of the World Heavyweight Championship at a Big Four PPV making sure hehas finished the week with a huge gap. Eve Torres on the other hand is second with a big title victory at the Rumble, the Fatal Fourway match up lending to her points collection, maybe WWE have big things planned for her.
This week also saw the first points collected by John Cena. He may of failed to win the match or even make the final three of the Rumble but with more eliminations than any other many (Punk was close with 5 and had he tied with Cena I would have used his Nexus group eliminations as a tie-breaker). CM Punk didn't go home empty handed either as he was the 2011 Ironman of the Rumble lasting longer than any other wrestler.

The Rated R Superstar's performance this week earns him the top space in the WWE league followed closely by the Royal Rumble Winner and his likely WrestleMania opponent Alberto Del Rio. Kofi still managed to place in a respectable third after a tag team victory.
Eve Torres is the unlikely climber this week as her Diva' Championship win raises her up to 6th just abover the former champion Natalya. Despite The Miz's championship defense he is only just hanging on to a top 5 position.
