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 Aug. 5 episode of Monday Night Raw, SmackDown & 205 Live on Tues, Aug. 6, NXT UK & NXT from Wednesday, this week’s Impact, ROH TV & MLW Fusion, New Japan’s G1 Climax shows, Ring of Honor Summer Supercard, NXT TakeOver: Toronto, and any other televised or internet streaming wrestling that aired from Aug. 4 - 10, 2019.
Make YOUR mark, smarks!
Bunch a sadists, rewarding this behavior...
... with a win. Do you hate Seth Rollins THAT much?
- Close behind the Beast was a guy mostly known for comedy these days, but who earned your support for a kickass cruiserweight match. It also probably helped his opponent into seventh, but I’m pretty sure his wife got sixth for comedy.
- The O.C.’s new tag titles might be a reward for re-signing. Your votes were a reward for winning the Raw belts.
- A Fiend-ish attack on Finn and a creepy match acceptance from the FunHouse kept Bray in your good graces.
- The Man is here as always, but in the week in question she did beat the women who now hold tag gold. She tied with the Bruiserweight who returned to the Florida territory and got himself a title match.
- G1 Climax participants can place! They just have to beat KENTA and Okada in the same week to do it, apparently.

TakeOver will be on your minds as you cast your ballots, most likely. But don’t forget Raw, NXT, SmackDown, New Japan, MLW, ROH, Impact, or any indies that Rev. Claire’s Sermon on the Mat may have led you to. Not that you can’t find them on your own, but if Claire’s doing the work for you...
Anyway, think about the wrestling you watched last week and click and/or type below. It’s that simple!
