The cheer world has just witnessed a seismic shift as the Arkansas Razorbacks Cheerleading Squad has been officially named the #1 Cheerleading Team on the Planet by ESPN after an adrenaline-pumping, boundary-breaking performance that sent shockwaves through the 2025 International Cheer Summit—and the entire internet.
In what fans and critics are calling the most electrifying routine of the decade, the Razorbacks stormed the floor with unmatched energy, perfectly synchronized stunts, and a raw, relentless power that left the competition in the dust.
“That wasn’t a performance. That was an uprising,” said ESPN’s lead analyst Corey Daniels. “Arkansas didn’t come to play. They came to dominate. And they just put the entire cheer world on notice.”
The squad’s now-iconic stunt—“The Razorback Revolver”—included a 360-degree rotating tower launch combined with mid-air flips and blind catches that had the crowd screaming and the judges stunned into silence. It earned them a record-breaking perfect execution score and the highest creativity rating of the year.

The win places Arkansas ahead of elite squads from Japan, Canada, and the U.S., and marks a historic moment as the Razorbacks become global ambassadors of cheer excellence.
