Wrestling Podcast Power Rankings: Top 25 Shows and Trends (8/26)

Podcasts covering professional wrestling are as common as clotheslines and headlocks. For brave explorers seeking to enter the pro wrestling podcast vortex, we at SEScoops want to make your journey as easy as possible.

Each week, we update you on the Top 25 most-listened-to wrestling podcast episodes, focusing on the Top 5 (including embeds). This feature is based on data from Apple Podcasts compiled by Chartable.

Top 5 Wrestling Podcasts

1) Jim Cornette Experience ?

Love or hate him, Jim Cornette doesn’t care what you think. He has been a prominent figure in professional wrestling for decades and is considered one of the pioneers in producing weekly wrestling commentary.

He has maintained his grasp on the #1 position of our Top 5 list for the second week in a row. This is an impressive feat, especially since The Undertaker’s Six Feet Under podcast has been an absolute juggernaut in the rankings.

In the latest edition of the Jim Cornette Experience, Cornette talks about his 100% true best friend, Dave Meltzer, and reviews both WWE Smackdown and an interview in which new AEW writer Jennifer Pepperman participated. One can only imagine his take on that!

Most importantly, Cornette discusses the passing of WWE Hall of Famer Afa Anoai.

2) Insight with Chris Van Vliet 

Chris Van Vliet isn’t just one of the most well-respected interviewers in professional wrestling; he’s an internationally recognized media personality. He’s a four-time Emmy-winning TV Host, YouTuber, and Inc. 500 entrepreneur who’s interviewed everyone from Anne Hathaway to Hornswoggle.

The latest edition of Insight with Chris Van Vliet, it’s time yet another AskCVV episode! CVV talks about Joe Hendry’s potential as NXT Champion (Maybe he’ll even appear!), if Bryan Danielson will lose to Swerve Strickland and retire at AEW All In (Spoiler Alert: Welp), what he thinks the “the worst storyline in the history of wrestling” is, and tips for those heading to their first WrestleMania.

3) Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway

The Undertaker’s highly praised Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway podcast has fallen to #3 on the Top 5 list—a report that we’re not super thrilled to share. If The Phenom does read this list, please know we’re doing our job! (Blame Chartable!).

In the latest edition of Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway, the WWE Hall of Famer reviews WWE SummerSlam. Check out The Deadman’s thoughts on every bout, and creative decision at the Biggest Party of The Summer!


4) Perched On The Top Rope ?

Making an appearance in the Top 5 once again is the Perched On The Top Rope podcast! The program is hosted by Lee, a former writer, avid wrestling collector, and fan for over 30 years. He’s joined by Larry Peace, a former MLW referee, and Justin, the podcast’s correspondent.

In Episode 211, the crew gives predictions for AEW ALL IN Predictions and discusses the AEW ALL IN pre-event Media Call with President Tony Khan. While All In maybe All Wrapped at the time of this writing, check out the episode regardless! See if the guys got close with their thoughts and projections.

5) Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru ?

Can’t get enough of Jim Cornette? Want to listen to even MORE of his thoughts, predictions, and opinions on current and old-school wrestling? Well do we have some great news for you!

Cornette’s Drive-Thru podcast rounds out the Top 5 of this week’s rankings, with the industry legend speaking on topics such as AEW All In (pre-event), AEW Dynamite, and WWE Raw. Plus, Jim talks about one of his favorite people – Tony Khan! You won’t want to miss this episode for sure.

Top 5 Wrestling Podcasts – Apple (August 2nd, 2024)

1) Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway | ~

“Do you experience déjà vu, Mrs. Lancaster?” is a famous line from the 1993 comedy blockbuster “Groundhog Day,” in which Bill Murray portrays a weatherman who becomes trapped in a time loop on, you guessed it, Groundhog Day.

It’s safe to say that the #1 position of our Top 5 professional wrestling podcasts has become a bit of a “Groundhog Day” scenario, as once again, WWE Hall of Famer Mark Calaway’s “Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway” claims the coveted spot.

In the latest edition of the podcast, The Undertaker sits down with a different kind of wrestler: world rebounded to arm wrestler Michael Todd.

2) Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru | +

Do you know what Jim Cornette calls a Quater Pounder with Cheese? It’s a Royal Rumble with Cheese! There you go— a movie AND a drive-thru reference! We felt particularly clever with that one.

Love him or hate him, Jim Cornette doesn’t care what you think. He has been a prominent figure in professional wrestling for decades and is considered one of the pioneers in producing weekly wrestling commentary.

In the most recent edition of his “Drive-Thru” show, Cornette reviews AEW Dynamite and WWE RAW, previews SummerSlam, and answers tons of fan questions!

3) Insight with Chris Van Vliet | ~

Shockingly, coming up with a movie-related reference/pun for Chris Van Vliet, of all people, was more challenging than expected. Maybe you can call him Bradly Cooper from 2011’s Limitless because you are truly limitless when you have great Insight! Honestly, we wouldn’t blame you if you stopped reading either.

For those who didn’t, we appreciate you. Plus, you get to meet this week’s #3 podcast, Insight with Chris Van Vliet, if it wasn’t obvious already. CVV isn’t just one of the most well-respected interviewers in professional wrestling; he’s an internationally recognized media personality. CVV is a four-time Emmy-winning TV Host, YouTuber, and Inc. 500 entrepreneur who’s interviewed everyone from Anne Hathaway to Hornswoggle.

In his latest episode, the tables turn, and the fans get to ask Chris Van Vliet questions! Here Vliet talks about his SummerSlam predictions, the potential of WrestleMania emanating from the United Kingdom, and that now widely reported not-so-secret meeting between Shane McMahon and AEW President Tony Khan.

4) Busted Open | ~

Like an intense scene from the 1999 classic Fight Club, the #4 position is Sirius XM Radio’s home for all things combat sport and professional wrestling, Busted Open.

Host Dave LaGreca speaks with a rotating cast of co-hosts, including Bully Ray, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, Thunder Rosa, and Nic Nemeth (fka Dolph Ziggler). The show covers the latest in professional wrestling news throughout the industry, with special emphasis on WWE, AEW, NJPW, and TNA.

In this latest episode, the team discusses Bryan Danielson’s announcement that his wrestling contract with All Elite Wrestling is almost up.

5) Jim Cornette Experience | –

Coming in at #5 is the only man to be featured twice in the Top 5, ever controversial – yet authentic – Jim Cornette. In this vain, Cornette reminds us of Scarlett Johansson, who starred in two films nominated for Academy Awards in 2012. Respectfully, this is just about where the comparisons between Jim Cornette and Scarlett Johansson end.

In the latest episode of the Jim Cornette Experience, “This week on the Experience, Jim takes a Deep Dive into his 1984 Mid-South schedule! Plus Jim reviews AEW’s new look Collision & last week’s Smackdown! Also, Jim talks about AEW’s potential future growth, camp, agents, and more!”

Top 5 Wrestling Podcasts – Apple (July 18th, 2024)

1) Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway | ~

As Kelly Clarkskin said in her smash hit Behind Those Hazel Eyes, “Here I am, Once again…” This is our very corny way to tell you that WWE Hall of Famer Mark Calaway, better known to the WWE Universe as The Undertaker, is once again in the #1 position of top wrestling podcast.

The former World Champion first jumped into the game in October 2023 and hasn’t looked back since.

In the latest episode of Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway, Taker and co-host Matt reflect on the “chaotic” last few episodes. In addition, The Lord of Darkness discusses what it’s like being “a flag football dad”, how the idea for him to dress as Kane came about, and also confirms if he’s “banned from the State of Vermont.”

2) Insight with Chris Van Vliet | ~

When it comes to the #2 spot on the top wrestling podcast charts, this entrant would probably make like the Jackson 5 and proclaim, “I’ll be there!” (Okay, we promise this is the last of the bad song puns – maybe).

Chris Van Vliet isn’t just one of the most well-respected interviewers in professional wrestling; he’s an internationally recognized media personality. CVV is a four-time Emmy-winning TV Host, YouTuber, and Inc. 500 entrepreneur who’s interviewed everyone from Anne Hathaway to Hornswoggle.

In his latest episode, Vliet spoke with former WWE Superstar Donovan Dijak. The two spoke about his WWE departure, AEW Forbidden Door, the infamous RETRIBUTION faction, his most recent NXT run, and more!

(Want to hear more from Dijak?! Check out SEScoop’s recent interview with him here!)

3) Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru |+

Okay, one more bad music pun. Clearly a fan of Ace Frehley, Jim Cornette Back In The Top 5 Grove!, both in the #3 and #5 positions, respectively.

Love or hate him, Jim Cornette doesn’t care what you think. His presence in professional wrestling goes back decades, and he is one of the pioneers in producing weekly content on wrestling commentary.

In the most recent episode of Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru, Cornette covers a wide range of topics, including AEW Dynamite, RAW, Hulk Hogan at the RNC, and much more.

4) Busted Open | ~

Join Sirius XM’s biggest professional wrestling show, as host Dave LaGreca speaks with a rotating cast of co-hosts, including Bully Ray, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, Thunder Rosa, and Nic Nemeth (fka Dolph Ziggler). The show covers the latest in professional wrestling news throughout the industry, with special emphasis on WWE, AEW, NJPW, and TNA.

“Bully Ray & Tommy Dreamer discuss the future for AEW on TV with Sports Business Journal’s Austin Karp. Also, the Fat N Furious speak with NXT’s Lexis King about his rise in WWE’s Black & Gold brand”

5) Jim Cornette Experience | –

Rounding out the Top 5 is the ever-controversial, yet purely authentic Jim Cornette.

“This week on the Experience, Jim reviews WrestleMania XL: Behind The Curtain, as well as Smackdown! Plus Jim talks about The Iron Claw, Afa in court, Khan money, Nevada, and more! Also, Jim reviews classic audio of Dream Machine quitting Jimmy Hart’s First Family in 1981!”
