When it comes to pulling no punches on the biggest stories in pro wrestling, Ben Simon doesn’t just deliver the hits—he delivers them with the kind of brutal honesty and sharp wit that makes Wrestling Uncensored appointment television. As occasional co-host of Ringside Report Network’s flagship wrestling show and of our Pay Per View shows, alongside his brother Dave, Ben brings the passionate fan’s perspective that every hardcore wrestling enthusiast can relate to.
Growing up immersed in combat sports entertainment as part of the Simon wrestling dynasty, Ben was destined to join the family business. But don’t mistake familiarity for softness—Ben has quickly established himself as the voice willing to call out WWE’s creative missteps, label underwhelming matches exactly what they are, and deliver the kind of unfiltered commentary that echoes what fans are screaming at their TVs.
Whether he’s dismissing a chaotic eight-man tag as “a car crash,” calling out a legendary wrestler’s questionable comeback as “an insult to pro wrestling,” or summing up a disappointing WrestleMania night with “Give me three matches that matter, or I’m checking my phone,” Ben’s razor-sharp takes cut through the industry’s spin to deliver the truth fans deserve.
Ben’s strength lies in that perfect balance between analytical insight and genuine fan reaction. He can break down booking decisions with the precision of a seasoned analyst, then pivot to the kind of spontaneous, laugh-out-loud commentary that makes you feel like you’re watching with your funniest friend. His quick wit and pop-culture references keep even the longest pay-per-view reviews entertaining, while his willingness to openly debate his brother Dave creates the kind of authentic sibling rivalry that adds electricity to every broadcast.
As Wrestling Uncensored streams live across YouTube, Twitch, Rumble, and Kick every Friday at 10 PM ET, Ben thrives in the interactive environment—reading live chat, responding to fan questions, and turning each show into a real-time conversation with the wrestling community. Known affectionately as “Uncle Ben” to the Ringside Report Network family, he’s become the relatable voice who wears his fandom on his sleeve while delivering the kind of honest analysis that has made Ringside Report Network essential viewing for over two decades.
From marathon WrestleMania post-shows to special crossover events covering both WWE and UFC, Ben has proven he can hold his own across the entire combat sports spectrum. His presence has strengthened the network’s family atmosphere while ensuring that every show delivers both the expertise and entertainment that defines The Combat Sports Authority.
Whether you agree with his takes or find yourself arguing with the screen, one thing’s certain—Ben Simon will make sure you’re never bored and always thinking about wrestling in a whole new way.
