Solo Sikoa leads Cageside Community Wrestler Rankings for week 19

"

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 Aug. 30-Sept. 5, 2026 — AEW’s All In London PPV, AAA’s Ola de Calor & NXT’s Heatwave PLEs, Raw, NXT, Evolve, Dynamite, Impact, ROH on HonorClub, SmackDown, 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. Solo Dolo back-to-back? In fact, our second place finisher was also back-to-back in the spot. Third and fourth went to luchadors: a masked WWE one who advanced to faced his Lucha Bro in Raw’s #1 contender touranment and defended his AAA title during the week under consideration, and an unmasked AEW one who was driving MJF nuts at the time. Our last non-tie was fka Powerhouse Hobbs in fifth. Out the Mud joined him in their then-unnamed stable, and were the second of three ties to close out our latest weekly Top “Ten”. A pair of Brits split sixth, one for advancing to another match at Wembley after everyone thought your career was over, the other for the final run-up to his All In coronation. Last and I suppose, as far as these rankings go, least — the TNA brother act who beat the other, more legendary TNA brother act at Lockdown. The CCWR: 2026-27, Week 19 1. Solo Sikoa 2. Sami Zayn 3.
