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.

Those bullet point lol

Well he sure ain't bitter.

Wonder who is financing this. Sounds like a Paul L. Job to me

Reading those bullet points, I gotta think Nemeth is overplaying his hand here. The idea that TK would blame Nemeth personally for Punk's departure, to the point of trying to blackball him, seems kind of absurd, especially considering that he wasn't involved in either the incident that led to Punk's suspension or the one that led to his firing, and the people who were involved in both incidents have been featured on television since. It doesn't even factually line up; Punk didn't leave, he was terminated.

Also, that first bullet point is the pettiest shit imaginable.

Reading through some of the stuff, it sounds like one of those ambulance chasing lawyers told him if he made a stink he would get paid off to just go away. I just don't see how he can win this, one side was a dick, the other side told him to poke at the dick until it erupted. Well he's a grown ass man, who should have known better than to rub a dick the wrong way.

Then he shows himself to be a massive douche canoe and claims that he is being blackballed and can never work in wrestling again.... while he... works as a wrestler in TNA. I feel like he's very lucky he has a more famous family member also working there, if it were my company I'd be inclined to bench him.

Damned right, no one needs chaffing.

Funny thing: that claim (that AEW told him to antagonize Punk) doesn't appear anywhere in the actual court documents. And you'd think it would, considering the depth it gets into on the timeline of the events and how much time it takes going on and on and on about how much Tony Khan admires CM Punk and how AEW was created solely to keep TK away from the Khan family's actual businesses.

I have a feeling that was just something Ryan said to garner sympathy from fans, and not actually what happened at all.

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Then I'm hoping for discovery, I'd like to know what really happened during all of that not just I say this happened.
