It’s the New Year. You watched the big ball drop in Times Square (or the equivalent in whichever time zone/country you are in). You drank a little too much champagne. Perhaps you shared a kiss with that special someone. It’s 2026, and there’s so much ahead. Resolutions, new friends, new job opportunities, new places to discover.
But you’re not ready to say goodbye to 2025. Not yet. Because you haven’t ranked your top 50-100 favorite wrestlers of the year for Violent People Dot CO yet.
That’s right. We’re back. For another year, I will be doing the painstaking task of compiling the Violent People Community’s top wrestlers of the past 365 days. But to compile those wrestlers, I need YOUR help. Forget the rules? Here they are!
- Vote for your top 50 or 100 wrestlers based purely on their 2025 resumes
- Any ballot that falls between 50 and 100 (e.g. a 72-name ballot) will be cut off and treated as a 50-name ballot.
- This poll is for in-ring, bell-to-bell work only. Promo ability, drawing power, etc. should not be considered.
- Tape date only. Any work taped in 2024 but aired in 2025 should not be considered. Work taped at the end of 2025 that airs in 2026 should be considered for this year’s list, not next year’s.
- Ballots will be weighted by the method used in the past for the WDKW/The Chris 100
- 5a. 50-person ballots: 1st place-75 points, 2nd-65 points, 3rd-60 points, etc.
5b. 100-person ballots: 1st place-125 points, 2nd-115 points, 3rd-110 points, etc. - I reserve the right to toss any ballots that may be jokes/trolling/different ballots sent by one person
- Ballots will be accepted from January 1 until midnight EST on March 7
Here are some helpful tips to prevent me hunting you down for clarifications:
- Tag teams take two distinct spots. You cannot vote for them together. I will hassle you if you do this. I’m sorry. You have to choose the better Young Buck.
- Another thing that will prevent pestering is if you give full names of wrestlers. Confusion here tends to happen with Japanese wrestlers with common surnames or luchadores with gimmicks that span generations.
- If you would like a copy of your ballot, you can check a box at the end of the form and it will send you an email. This is more convenient than you DMing me for a copy a month later while I’m at work.
- If you want to know all the wrestlers you got high votes on and you have a very common name, consider adding an initial or distinctive signifier. Last year there were two Andys it was very confusing.
