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 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.
This week, we’re voting on nationally televised and internet streaming pro wrestling shows that took place Jan. 2-8, 2022: New Japan’s Wrestle Kingdom 16, Raw, Dark: Elevation, Dark, NXT, Dynamite, NXT UK, Impact, SmackDown, Rampage, 205 Live, NJPW Strong, AEW Battle of the Belts, Impact’s Hard To Kill, and anything else I’m forgetting.
But first, here’s the outcome of last week’s voting, and how those results changed our competition for Performer of the Year.
A Women’s Street Fight beat out a legit Heavyweight champ winning the WWE title?
Sure did. Your top five all came from that tag match on AEW’s New Year’s Eve Rampage, plus the winner of WWE’s New Year’s Day PPV.
The Beast Incarnate was the only non-All Elite talent in the Top 10.
