Totally getting this caught up before Raw:
WWE Stablewars - Season 80 - Week 3
Week 3 of
WWE Stablewars Season 80 saw both the UK Championship special and NXT Takeover take place, so it was a chance for some mid and lower card wrestlers to shine and pick up some decent points along the way.
By the end of Week 3
The Ass Goblin: Ass of Horrors (suped2damax - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC) was the new leader, moving up another place to overtake Week 2 leader and faction mate
Guardians of the Flakers Vol. 1 (inFAMOUS_ChRiS - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC).
The Ass Goblin: Ass of Horrors finished the week on 113 points with a stable consisting of Kevin Owens, Jinder Mahal, Neville, Fandango, Jack Gallagher, Alexa Bliss & Sasha Banks, none of whom scored overly big during the week but just enough to consolidate his position at the top.
Guardians of the Flakers Vol. 1 (inFAMOUS_ChRiS - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC) ended with 110 points after Week 3, while tied for third on 107 points were the stables
Cole Miners (rcarena) and Week 1 leader
Los Soylents (SoylentSmoothie).
The Premier Stable (Tony_Premier - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC),
Phenomenal Cruiserweights (trebekker),
The Why-That Family (sonofabruce),
Chise's America (Franchise - Main Event Mafia), and
BWC (Trazken) were other stables with over 100 points, while
Authors of Champagne (Words McMahon - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC) and
No Way JoRay! (facesRus - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC) rounded out the top ten.
Cole Miners (rcarena),
Snack Pack Attack! - Now With Less FAT!!! (PimpinSmurf - nWo), and
armydrew21 (armydrew21) were the highest scoring stables in Week 3, each picking up 29 points.
Cole Miners relied on points from TJ Perkins winning on the UK Champions special as well as Raw, while
Snack Pack Attack! - Now With Less FAT!!! made the most of having NXT Womens Champion Asuka and
armydrew21 had NXT Champion Bobby Roode on his stable, both of whom defended their titles at NXT Takeover: Chicago.
Phenomenal Cruiserweights (trebekker) and
No Way JoRay! (facesRus - Benoit Babysitting Service, LLC) both also scored at least 25 points in Week 3, while a total of 23 different stables scored more than 20 points. Conversely,
U.N.K. (EyEzOpEn) was the lowest scoring stable in Week 3, picking up a solitary point thanks to Matt Hardy interference on Raw, while
7horseman (Non Member) and Season 63 Champion
GO GET YOUR SHINE BOX!!! (Non Member) only scored three points each.
