Fans vote for weekly pro wrestling performer rankings in latest poll

"

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 five performers you think entertained or impressed the most in the last week, and feel free to talk about why. We also have the outcome of last week’s voting, the results of which make up our annual competition for the Cageside Cup, given to our Performer of the Year. This week, we’re voting on nationally televised and internet streaming pro wrestling shows that took place Sept. 6-12, 2026 — Raw, NXT, Evolve, Dynamite, Impact, ROH on HonorClub, SmackDown, Night one of AAA’s Triplemania, MLW Fusion, Collision, and everything else I’m no doubt forgetting. But first, here’s the outcome of last week’s voting, and how those results changed our annual competition for the Cageside Cup. I hope they reenacted this with the World title after All In, maybe with some pyro… Those new AEW champs finished in front of their NXT counterparts, with the belts inverted. Large Epsilon’s brothers revealed their New Level with a partnership with Swerve Strickland and a Trios title win. That allowed them to split 11 points in the middle of our latest Top 10. The Best Bout Machine did it again, and his performance in London put him in front of Tater and the new #1 contenders to the reigning WWE and AEW World champs. The CCWR: 2026-27, Week 20 1. Will Ospreay 2. Mercedes Moné 3. Kelani Jordan 4. Grayson Waller 5. (tie) Austin Creed 5. (tie) Kofi 7. Kenny Omega 8. Penta 9. Tatum Paxley 10.

You can always check the “how to” here if you need to, or ask a question in the comments. The main things you need to know are you have five spots on your ballot, you can’t put the same person in two of them, but you can split a single or multiple spots between multiple wrestlers. Now… Let’s have those ballots! We’ll take it from there, and see you back here in a week for the results and another vote!
