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 Nov. 7 episode of Monday Night Raw, Tuesday's SmackDown Live, Wednesday's Lucha Underground, WWE NXT, and ROH TV, Thursday's TNA Impact, EVOLVE 72 and any other internet streaming wrestling that aired from Nov. 6 - 12, 2016.

Make YOUR mark, smarks!

Yes, you.

Don't be humble, Queen, it doesn't suit you.

The Boss lost her title but won the week, while the new Raw Women's champ (and the lady who actually calls herself Queen)  finished behind the two guys feuding for SmackDown's top prize.

And right in front of the #1 contender for the blue brand's Women's belt.

Raw's best friends head a decent-sized contingent for Monday night (aided by Hell in a Cell, no doubt - as they brought their foe from that pay-per-view (PPV) along with them for a Standings point), coming in right in front of the Lunatic Fringe's little buddy/most controversial member of the Greatest Wrestler Tournament field.

We sure do like it when that Hollywood A-Lister yells at Daniel Bryan.

The S3: 2016-17, Week 31

1. Sasha Banks
2. AJ Styles
3. Dean Ambrose
4. Charlotte
5. Alexa Bliss

7. Kevin Owens
8. James Ellsworth

Points in our weekly Standings determine our annual list - full details on rules and scoring HERE.

Our top five pad their totals, and Sasha jumps back up and gives us two Horsewomen in the back half.

We need your vote to keep this thing rolling. Refresh your memory of what went down on Raw, Smackdown, Lucha Underground, NXT, Impact and EVOLVE (and any other wrestling you found on the world wide web).

Hopefully, unlike other recent votes, half of all participants won't be angry or depressed when the results come in next Sunday.
