About Us
Ringside News is privately owned and operated. The website was launched back in 2007 by Steve Carrier who has been overseeing the website operations ever since.
Ringside News was originally known to many of its readers as WrestleAttitude.com. Later, our re-branding was under way when the domain name RingsideNews.com was purchased, better describing what we do, and easier for our readers to remember.
Since the merger of the two websites, Ringside News has been able to reach millions across the globe by word of mouth, link backs, search engines and social media: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snap Chat, Tumblr, Pinterest, Tiktok, Threads and YouTube.
Our work has been featured by popular publications such as TMZ, The New York Post, Forbes, Bleacher Report, FOX Sports, WhatCulture and several other main stream media outlets. Ringside News has been mentioned multiple times in The Wrestling Observer Newsletter and Wrestling Observer Radio for breaking several big stories in the wrestling industry. We have continued to prove not only to our readers but also to our peers that we are a well trusted source for professional wrestling news.
In addition to finding our work featured on other sites, Ringside News also is part of the Facebook’s News Index as well as Google News’ index.
Our mission at Ringside News is to provide our readers with the most accurate professional wrestling news, spoilers and rumors with our around-the-clock coverage. The Ringside News writing staff goes out of their way to deliver original content at its highest quality.
