Smarks are all aboard the Rhea Ripley hype train

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 - WWE’s Survivor Series PPV, the Nov. 25 episode of Monday Night Raw, Tuesday’s Impact, AEW DARK & NWA Powerrr, Dynamite & NXT from Wednesday, Thurs., Nov. 27’s NXT UK & Beyond’s Uncharted Territory, SmackDown & 205 Live on Fri., Nov. 28, this week’s ROH TV & MLW Fusion, and any other televised or internet streaming wrestling that aired from Nov. 24 - 30, 2019.

Make YOUR mark, smarks!

What did #1 say to #10?

  • It was a mostly TakeOver Standings, and nobody came out of that Sat. night in Allstate Arena looking like a bigger star than The Mosh Pit Kid (the same can maybe of Sun. night, too, but that’s for you to tell us below).
  • Mox continued to interject himself into the Performer of the Year discussion by interjecting himself between Rhea and the rest of Team WWE in last week’s top ten. His opponent from the Dynamite in question was the only other AEW name in the S3.
  • Back to the black-and-gold, there was the guy who got Air Raid Crash-ed through two tables from 20 feet, the Kiwi who crushed her friend’s knee in a cage, the former champ who came home, the other former champ who won his first match since coming home in October, the guy who Air Raid Crash-ed the other guy through two tables from 20 feet, and a Limitless fella.
  • Then there was The Man, picking up her obligatory weekly Standings point.
