Everybody who comes to Cageside Seats has an opinion about what’s going on in pro wrestling — Wrestler Rankings are where YOU let us know YOURS.
Cast a vote in the comments. Give us the five performers
you think entertained or impressed the most in the last week, and feel free to talk about why.
We also have the outcome of last week’s voting, the results of which make up our annual competition for the Cageside Cup, given to our Performer of the Year.
This week, we’re voting on nationally televised and internet streaming pro wrestling shows that took place Nov. 9-15, 2025 — Raw, NXT, Evolve, Dynamite, Impact, ROH on HonorClub, SmackDown, TNA Turning Point, Collision, and everything else I’m no doubt forgetting.
But first, here’s the outcome of last week’s voting, and how those results changed our annual competition for the Cageside Cup.
She was born to be a champ-champ…
- The new WWE Women’s U.S. titleholder’s AAA Mixed Tag champ partner also picked up a couple points for the week.
- The WWE Men’s U.S. titleholder continues to impress, and the latest wrestler who answered his open challenge during the week in question also grabbed part of a point.
- A promoted NXT star made a splash on SmackDown, and edged out NOAH’s new World champ and Stardom and New Japan’s reigning one.
- The dominant half of the new WWE Women’s tag champs shared sixth with an AEW Babe of Wrath, followed by one of The Callis Family’s titleholders.
- Our three-way tie for tenth also included a returning lucha legend, and a former ROH champ who’s proving to be a thorn in Jon Moxley’s side.

Ready to do it again? You can always check the “how to” here if you need to, or ask a question in the comments. The main things you need to know are you have five spots on your ballot, you can’t put the same person in two of them, but you can split a single or multiple spots between multiple wrestlers. Now…
Let’s have those ballots! We’ll take it from there, and see you back here in a week for the results and another vote!
