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.

Two possible outcomes I see here:
- He's been secretly healing and redebuts as a nxt wrestler
- There's no secret subtext and he's getting screwed
If Sterling James Keenan suddenly shows up in AEW's commentary booth, I wouldn't be surprised.
You know what, fuck this, Corey Graves is one of the best they've had, do I like him 100% of the time, no, but he is my favorite in current WWE. I hate Booker T, I don't like Pat's over the top shit, either of them could go, but I could see replacing Booker as a slap to the face because CW and NXT are a step down from the Flagship programs.
Sadly, there just aren't a lot of places outside WWE to work. Especially sucky situation if Carmella one day gets cleared and returns to the road, I imagine her contract has been frozen for these past couple of years.
EDIT: For clarification purposes, I dislike Booker T the announcer, I like Booker T the wrestler.
EDIT 2: The more I'm reading about this, the more I'm waffling between work and shoot. If he isn't let go in the next few weeks, I'll lean more heavily into work. Unless he shows up tonight proving it's a work. My opinion still stands, they should put him back on commentary, I liked his pbp work with Wade.
Graves has now deleted both tweets he put out. Sure, makes me lean to this was real vented frustrations.
