Ranking Of The Ring

  • Summary

  • We dive deep into the archives of pro wrestling in a quest to pit the best matches and shows of all time from WWE, AEW, Ring of Honor, TNA and more against each other. Each episode we cover multiple matches or full shows, talking about the buildup and going blow by blow with our analysis and opinions. Then at the end we rate them against each other in our ongoing Ranking Of The Ring.

  • Matches 5: HBK/Mankind Mind Games 1996 & Orange Cassidy/Kylie Rae 2019
    Nov 16 2024

    When war begins in the psyche, and sanity struggles with lunacy, does that make for a good wrestling match? Or is it better to have a guy with his hands in his pockets taking on a very happy woman in front of a tiny crowd? These are the questions we try to answer as we dive into Shawn Michaels' WWF championship defence against Mick Foley at Mind Games 1996, and follow it up with a refreshing glass of freshly squeezed Orange Cassidy and Smiley Kylie Rae battling it out in Beyond Wrestling. Did you know one of these people used to be an ant or something idk.

  • Matches 4: CM Punk/MJF AEW Revolution 2022
    Oct 9 2024

    Is modern wrestling capable of great storytelling? We dive in to what many consider to be the best feud AEW has built in its five-year lifetime, and a high water mark for how even in the reality era, committing to character work and using real history can blur the lines and make fans hungry for a showdown between two of the best in the world™.

    Join us through the war of words, backstory and blood that is MJF vs CM Punk as we walk through their months-long journey to a bloody and brutal dog collar match, and how it all went wrong afterwards meaning we'll likely never see the true payoff for this epic program.

  • Matches 3: Rock/Hogan Wrestlemania 18 & Guerrero/Malenko 2 of 3 falls ECW 1995
    Aug 23 2024

    We're hitting two very different ends of the wrestling spectrum this episode. We start with a trip back to the very underground early days of 1995 ECW with Eddie Guerrero and Dean Malenko in their farewell encounter, closing out their series with a classic best 2 of 3 falls match.

    Then we move on to see what happens two of the biggest icons of pro wrestling and pop culture in general go face to face on the grandest stage of all. That's right, it's Hollywood Hulk Hogan vs The Rock from 2002's WWF Wrestlemania X8, the show that asks the fans: Watcha gonna do when a dastardly heel invades the roster and tries to full on murder your favourite star? Give him one of the unrelentingly loudest babyface reactions in history, apparently.
