Everybody who comes to Cageside Seats has an opinion about what's going on in pro wrestling - The Smark's Shoot Standings (S3) are where YOU let us know YOURS.
Cast a vote in the comments. Give us the four performers you think entertained or impressed the most in the last week, and feel free to talk about why. And/or vote for your top performer in our poll.
We also have the outcome of last week's voting, the results of which make up our annual competition for Performer of the Year.
Remember, the Standings are for the previous week's nationally televised and internet streaming pro wrestling shows -the December 22 episode of WWE Monday Night Raw, Tuesday's live SmackDown and TNA Impact , Wednesday's WWE NXT, Tribute to the Troops and ROH TV, and any other internet streaming wrestling that aired from December 20 - 26.
Make YOUR mark, smarks!

but it seems pretty fitting in this case.
- Thoroughly dominating week for the Big Dog. Almost as devastating a knockout blow as the one he landed on his 70 year co-star, who landed in fifth during a busy week of voting.
- NXT's version of a pay-per-view (PPV) held up well against the main roster. And though they may not have gotten a main event spot in London, the ladies were the story. The winner of the opener edged out the Women's champ, with the loser of same finishing a spot ahead of the male titleholder.
- How 'bout that Salida del Sol, though?
- The new guy holding WWE's Intercontinental belt garnered slightly more support than the guy who used to until he got beat at TLC.
- And the #1 contender for the IWGP Intercontinental title shook off injury rumors to give ROH's World champ all he could handle at Final Battle.
