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.

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).

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.

So AEW is coming to my town, and I want to go. One problem. Ticketmaster.

In order to sign up for an account, you need to create an account. In order to create an account, you need a phone number. They will not accept my voip phone number, which is what I use.

Ticketmaster says that I need to go out and buy a cell phone, AND sign up for a monthly plan. Just to buy tickets.

Money is in my account. I can pay for my tickets right now. I've been trying since yesterday when they went on sale.

But I can't create an account, because of a lack of a cell phone number.

The box office won't be open until october 18. Show is on October 30th.

So I'm sure all the good seats will be gone by then.

Guess I'm not going to a show I've wanted to go to for 2 years. I couldn't go last year because I was dealing with cancer, and had $0 income.

Use a friend's or family member's number. Problem solved.

And then when it comes time to enter the venue, I need their cell phone.

I don't think so. It's been a while for me, but they emailed me a PDFs of the tickets. They pushed HARD for me to download their apps but I pushed harder that I won't, so the tickets were pdf qr codes. Also, they accepted my Google number, even though they said no VoIP.

Edit: also, that was the last time I bought tickets from them. 100% markup for "fees". Fuck. That. And fuck. Them.

No, you don't. Nobody is checking that the mobile number matches the number used to book, just that you have the ticket. It's not uncommon for one person to buy a number of tickets at once for their friends then send the tickets on as an email or screenshot. Every one of the scores of gigs I've been to the past 5 years my mate buys the tickets and sends it on to me. You can have it on your phone or print it if you wish.
