This is the "official" Fediverse community for all things pro wrestling!

Come discuss pro wrestling! Any company or era is welcome.

Please ensure you have NSFW posts enabled or you may miss out on some threads. Bots are not used in this community.

Rules: (Click to expand)

1. Be Civil.

Users are expected to be civil and inclusive towards one another at all times. Remember the person on the other side of the screen. Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other inflammatory language is prohibited.

2. Keep content related to wrestling.

Any content posted should at least be related to pro wrestling somehow.

3. Spoilers.

Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period. Use the spoiler function when you need to, it's there for a reason. Should your post involve a url to a spoiler (Twitter, YouTube video, etc) please mark the thread as NSFW as well so thumbnails are blurred or just link the content in the body of the post.

4. Vague/Editorialized Title.

Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.

5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.

Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias. Butt-shots you take with your cell phone at a house show aren't.

6. Banned Source(s)/Websites.

Due not necessarily to the content of their reporting, but to their harassing and doxxing of users, the following news sources, journalists, and content creators are not permitted to be posted on SquaredCircle in any context - including direct links, articles, social media, and reports that cite only those sources:

  • WrestleVotes
  • RingSideNews
  • Brad Shepard
  • Billi Bhatti and "The Dirty Sheets"
  • Any post or article citing one of the above as a primary source.

Also due to technical issues, bigotry/extremism, and various other issues, we do not accept URL submissions from the following websites:

  • Twitter/X (Please use Nitter, xcancel, or submit a screenshot if you are unable to source a non Twitter/X url)

Any posts/comments may be removed at the discretion of the moderation team.

There is a contingent of Warner Bros. Discovery execs and staff at tonight's AEW Dynamite in Los Angeles, PWInsider.com has confirmed, including Sam Linsky. Linsky holds the position of Associate General Manager and Senior Vice President, Programming & Operations, TNT, TBS, and truTV and has been a big champion for AEW since it first came to TNT in 2019.

WBD executives are in the house tonight, I'm expecting an, even more, balls-to-the-wall show than usual. Here's hoping it's to put the anti-AEW group out of their misery by finishing the TV contract negotiations.

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ So is Mercedes unofficially with The Elite or how did she swing a championship celebration segment

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 year ago

She is a CEO so she must have some sway!

Of course the CEO is tight with the EVPs.

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I like how Jack keeps that scapegoat bus coming, I'd rather it than the Ford SUV.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago

I'd rather just about anything over a modern Ford lol

This match honestly could've been on Rampage, especially if Mox is gonna beat everybody one armed

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What is this fresh nightmare?

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

TK just wanted to make sure you had a segment in which to take a break, grab a drink, maybe get a bite before the good stuff happens.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago

How nice of him to consider those of us that get home right when Dynamite starts!

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This is fantastic, minus the best friends deletion

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I absolutely don't like this move where the opponent has to sit up and just take it, it makes them look dumb.

Edit: They should work with the camera and production team to try and make it less obvious.

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I hate that it seems only the House call makes them just recovered to situp and also so dazed and confused that they stay in perfect position

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

I don't mind that much, though some do it better than others. I don't see it any different than jumping on a choke slam.

Dragon House?

Rocky out here self sacrificing himself to everyone

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man has numerous business-suit-level contracts and just serves himself as a sacrificial lamb.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

Probably trying to take his mind off of what a dick Trent is lol

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

Killswitch hates chairs!

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

All Jericho needs is a young cocky high flyer, only someone like Sammy Guevara could pull this off

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

Oh shit! Yes please!

Jericho being even more fake as a meta callback to his promo style I'm fine with

The Bounty Hunter sucking up isn't something I enjoy, hope he's playing him

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)
