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.

I said it for the Dynamite thread and I'll say it today... I hate HOOK being attached to Jericho.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

He's probably standing in for Sammy.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The Conquistador mask. 🀣

Idk if I like Collision and Dynamite having the same set. I liked each one feeling different especially since they are such differently paced shows

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They did a double show in the Suburbs of Atlanta this week, this was taped on Thursday I believe. It may go back to normal next time it isn't taped.

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ok, I thought I remembered some double show coming up. That hopefully makes sense.

I noticed TK chose the Collision set on their last double taping. I figured he liked the glossy floor more

Probably he wanted to debut the new Dynamite look for the season premiere (whatever that means to a show with no off-season), so having the new set became a must.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago

It's probably cheaper to transport the one set and use it for both shows, but I agree.

i just realised that the toni storm award was basically just homer winning the first annual montgomery burns award for outstanding achievement in the field of excellence.

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Christians sheer fatherly presence is enough to make one more handsome

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

If Toni isn't giving that award to herself, what are they even doing?

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

With the robes on they kind of looked like Methodist or Lutheran priests and then he had the coin that looked like a communion wafer, I was really wondering what kind of shenanigans were going to come from that, and was disappointed a bit it wasn't that.

bryan: hey tony i want to wind down my career and fight in njpw

tony: best i can do is bring njpw to aew so you can save on travel

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

The mini NJPW-verse is always interesting. Eddie pairs off with Okada and Danielson welcomes Ospreay

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

matthew and nicholas should bring back the over the top rope dq rule but only for their matches and only for their opponents

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

That reminds me: someone tell Tony Khan we're moving so he can keep stealing our ideas.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

Is it still gimmick infringement when your Timeless Mama makes you do it?

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

why would excalibur attack christian like that :(

I'm kind of sad crowds have seemingly quit chanting Luchasaurus at Killswitch.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don't worry, I'm still chanting it at home.

matthew jacksons insta handle doesn't use his passport name. i hope he fines himself.

Maybe I'm burned out on Judas, but I prefer the Lionheart entrance.

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I mean Judas is a lowkey depressing ass song

a perfect circle 🀝 fozzy

songs called judas that make me sad

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Seriously. It's about someone who habitually betrays and alienates anyone who even tries to get close to them, and is crushingly lonely as a result.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (4 children)

We need more rock songs about people who give their buddies a hug and a pat on the back when they're having a rough day.

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

Are you saying somebody needs to remix the Rick Roll song for somebody? Because it would be hilarious.

They should channel their inner TNA and make a ripoff of Walls of Jericho for him.

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is AEW, Tony will just write a check for the real thing.

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

If it were any company other than WWE I would believe that, but I don't think WWE will take that phone call.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

nobody:

me: i hope angelico is having a good day

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As someone who's enjoyed Angelico since his Lucha Underground days, I also hope he's having a good day.

I'm a sucker for anyone who was in Lucha Underground.

Well, almost anyone.

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Didn't take long for Christian to completely hijack Nick's entrance

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago

He just wanted to show his son how to do it properly, what good is all that training if he can't pass it on to his kids?

[–] Brain@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'm so glad PAC can finally return, I'm even more ecstatic for him to be going against Okada.

I just realized, this is the first time Penta and a CMLL wrestler have been on the same show since AEW started working with CMLL.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago

I look forward to the eventual 6 posts by Luchablog explaining how this happened, why it happened, and why Konnan will be and/or is pissed about it.
