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.

Who do you reckon will be the wildcard?

Could be Dijakovic or Ricochet, perhaps someone from CMLL or GCW?

Could also be Mansoor or Mason but I would expect them to debut as a tag act.

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was thinking the wildcard would be Hangman since The Elite claimed he was their guy, but then they showed that vignette for Hangman on Collision and now I'm not sure. If he was the wildcard, they wouldn't have tipped their hand like that, would they?

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

Yeah I don't know. It would be uncharacteristic of AEW, but maybe that's the point?

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

Our EVPs know best, TK tends to make decisions that lead to an unsafe working environment

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Honestly I'm not sure. M&M probably not for the reason you said. Dijak or Ricochet would be great to see but I feel if they bring em in they have to win their first match and with the story JJ has been put onto I still feel he has to win and at least to go to the finals, so that wouldn't feel right.

But it's gotta be someone out of the norm or why 'wild card' it? I'd wonder if it could be Adam Cole to 'defend' his previous tournament win but he's not healed up last anyone heard so I doubt that too..

[–] MolochAlter@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Depends, if they want to make the wildcard a megaheel it could work to just kill JJ.

Could be hangman if they want to cement his heel turn. Make him unhinged as fuck, and make him crush sympathetic JJ just to get a one up.

No more cheering

Only boos

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So as a Jay White fan, I have concerns about Saturday. Hangman seems a little deranged

I think the EVPs may have made a teency weency mistake lifting Hangman's suspension

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hanger is just a little angry, I'm sure once he cools off things will be fine

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

Let's go to Daly's Place, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this to all blow over.

Taz is a mark for his son!

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

He should've taken notes from Nigel on how to stay unbiased

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

But does Taz dig for clams?

Mercedes and The Elite are a perfect match.

They did the thing!

Mercedes is with The Elite

Idk if my heart can take a drawn out Don Callis vs Ospreay story. Fletcher is gonna be caught in the middle and Will is way too naive to think he can make a clean break

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

Lol the dance around Britt

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

I hate that I'm actually kind of enjoying Jericho feuding against Hook and his friends

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

It's about time he did something that didn't suck all of the fun out of the room

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

Lower card Jericho that gets the business is fun. Any form of him working with main event/on the cusp guys is just draining

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh god, we have to hear from Jericho all night now.

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

Hey guys! This sucks!

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I think I'm starting to understand Mercedes Mone

So are we getting MJF vs Ospreay at Wembley? Garcia is OK but idk if I would give him an MJF All In match

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

He's so close to being there I wonder if MJF could carry him in a match

So MJF is extremely upset that Will upstaged him and was cheered more than him.

And honestly Garcia deserved this. Very disrespectful what he did to MJF

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

Maybe next time he won't turn down a gift

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's always raccoon fighting time in my heart.
