WWF JULY Pound per Pound: KIMBO STILL AT #1, ANGLE CLIMBS, AND GRACIE OUT

kurt

The WWF has officially released the July Pound-for-Pound (P4P) Rankings, and the hierarchy of combat has been flipped on its head. In a month defined by “High-Level Problem Solving” and brute force, the index has rewarded activity and efficiency over legendary reputations.

Here is the breakdown of the elite ten who now rule the WWF landscape.


[[ THE WWF JULY P4P TOP 10 ]]

Rank Superstar Record Last 5 P4P Index Status
1 Kimbo Slice 3-0-0 W W W 3.75 Steady
2 The Rock 3-0-0 W W W 2.75 Steady
3 Kurt Angle 3-1-0 W W L W 2.50 +1 Rise
4 Hulk Hogan 2-0-0 W W 2.25 -1 Fall
5 Shane McMahon 2-0-0 W W 2.00 -1 Fall
6 Stone Cold 2-0-0 W W 2.00 -1 Fall
7 Bob Sapp 2-0-0 W W 2.00 -1 Fall
8 Rob Van Dam 2-0-0 W W 1.75 -1 Fall
9 Prince Naseem Hamed 1-0-0 W 1.75 -1 Fall
10 Ted DiBiase 2-0-0 W W 1.75 -1 Fall

[[ THE ANALYSIS: ANGLE’S ASCENSION & HOGAN’S SLIDE ]]

The biggest story of the month is the meteoric rise of Kurt Angle. Despite a loss on his record, his high-volume activity and technical dominance over elite competition have propelled him to the #3 spot, officially bumping Hulk Hogan down to #4.

The algorithm clearly favors Angle’s “Olympic Grind” over Hogan’s “Legendary Stasis.” While Hogan remains undefeated at 2-0, his lack of recent cage time compared to Angle’s four-fight tear has cost him the bronze position. In the WWF of 2026, you can’t just be an icon—you have to be a worker.


[[ THE SHOCKER: THE GRACIE EXODUS ]]

Perhaps the most controversial move in the July update is the removal of Rickson Gracie from the Top 10. Once considered the “Invisible God” of the rankings, Rickson’s inactivity and the sudden surge of multi-discipline winners like Bob Sapp and Prince Naseem Hamed have pushed the Brazilian legend into the “Honorable Mentions.”

The message from the WWF is clear: If you aren’t fighting, you aren’t relevant. With a 1.75 score, Ted DiBiase sneaks into the #10 spot, proving that “Million Dollar” wins count just as much as jiu-jitsu masterpieces.


[[ THE “KIMBO” GAP ]]

At the summit, Kimbo Slice remains untouched. With a 3.75 index score, he sits a full point above The Rock. His raw, backyard-to-big-stage brutality has created a “Kimbo Gap” that the rest of the roster is struggling to close. As we head toward SummerSlam, Slice isn’t just a fighter; he’s a statistical anomaly.

HOGAN AT #4?! 😤 This is a joke. Hogan has the USA belt and two decades of dominance. How does a guy with a ‘Loss’ (Angle) jump him? The Gonzaga Protocol is biased against the legends!

    It’s about activity, brother. Angle is out there every week breaking ankles. Hogan is 58 and pickier than a cat with its food. Angle earned that #3 spot with blood. 🥇

Bob Sapp at #7 is terrifying. 🦾 2-0 with a 2.00 score? If “The Beast” keeps this up, he’s going to be challenging Kimbo by October. Imagine the impact force of those two colliding!

RICKSON IS OUT?! 👊😤 This is a disrespect to the history of the sport. You can’t have a P4P list without a Gracie. Prince Naseem is #9 with only ONE fight? That’s pure hype.
