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 Feb. 5 episode of Monday Night Raw, Tuesday's SmackDown, Mixed Match Challenge and 205 Live, NXT from Wednesday, ROH TV #333, Thursday’s Impact Wrestling, and any other internet streaming wrestling that aired from Feb. 4 - 10, 2018.
Make YOUR mark, smarks!
This Empress and King are going to WrestleMania!

- The signature events from WWE’s Jan. 28 pay-per-view (PPV) unsurprisingly dominated the Standings. Both winners, the Iron Man and Woman, the NXT champ making his main roster debut in the men’s match and the last guy eliminated (for a record-setting third time) from same.
- The Atlas championship match at Progress Chapter 62 was also very choice pro graps.
- When you have your own holiday and become the #1 contender for the United States title, you get votes.
- When you wear the Intercontinental title and are Awesome... same.
