Two days ago Russo tweeted out the following:

To my BELOVED Supporters,

Over the past few weeks I have received many e-mails, dms and text messages concerning my status with @jcwlunacy .

For those of you who know me, you know I don't hide from the truth, I don't avoid the truth and I certainly don't lie about the truth.

The reason for my silence was that . . . I just didn't know. I just needed some time. I'd been unhappy for a while in @jcwlunacy and I'm not going to deny that. Something had to change.

Without getting into specifics, there were a lot of reasons with the biggest one being that at 65 . . . I'm not the same guy I was 30 years ago. Things have changed, life has changed and more importantly . . . I've changed.

A short while ago I had a phone conversation with Violent J and we have amicably agreed to part ways.

Hey man, it was supposed to be for a few weeks, maybe a couple of months, but we KILLED IT for an entire year.

So now . . . it's time to move on. What the future holds . . . we shall see.

I'd like to thank Violent J---one of the kindest, gentlest, most creative souls I have ever met in my life, the @jcwlunacy locker room---who treated me with the utmost respect, and the entire crew who worked their ARSES off every day.

Yeah, it was a wild ride . . . but, now . . . maybe I can finally take that nap.

God Bless,

Vince RussosBrand.com

Yesterday Violent J gave an interview where he said:

Vince Russo has been nothing short of a massive blessing for JCW and for me in my personal life. Originally, we planned a two or three-month run together and we ended up going an entire year. Every single time I saw his face on Lunacy, it gave me chills. I feel forever indebted to the man and I’ll always love him and miss having his legendary presence on the show," Violent J told Undisputed.

"I have been writing wrestling storylines since I was backyard wrestling at 14 years old, and I've been writing storylines throughout the first 26 years of JCW. Yet I've learned more over this past year working with Vince Russo than I'd ever known. I'm extremely excited to get back behind the wheel and deliver a brand-new era of JCW fans will never forget and will make Vince Russo extremely proud. Nothing to it but to do it, so let’s rock."

Congratulations to Russo for not getting fired for once.

This is super important and everyone needs to know about him.

Edit: I changed the link to a reuploaded version so it should work again.

Welcome to SquaredCircle’s ‘Meme Monday’!

Have you seen a great wrestling meme this week that just made you crack up? Did you watch a silly moment in a show and just need to craft a meme out of it? Well post ‘em below!

The highest voted meme shall win and be showcased in next week’s thread!

We had a tie last week, so here's the other winner!

It's not too surprising considering the loss of the Butcher and the fact that they were wrapping things up soon anyway. They posted the following on social media:

Being on social media has been quite difficult for us lately, so we haven't been using it very much. And now that Enjoy Wrestling is closed, we won't be using it much in the future either.

But we wanted to make a post on here to say goodbye.

This is a video of The Butcher's last entrance. We're all such big fans of Andy Williams and we were so excited to welcome him and The Blade to Enjoy.

The events that transpired at the end of their match were horrific, but we're privileged to have had the opportunity to know Andy and experience his passion for life, storytelling, and performance.

Thank you to all of the fans who shared their memories of Andy over the past few weeks. And thank you to everyone who reached out to us, offering love and support.

We have sunk so much of ourselves into Enjoy Wrestling over these past five-plus years; hours spent deliberating match cards and storylines. Then something tragic happens and all of that stuff becomes so profoundly unimportant.

But what remains is truly meaningful: The community that we've all cultivated through our mutual love for professional wrestling.

Thank you all for being that community. We love yinz.

• Enjoy

Here's a link to the Instagram post if you want to see the video. It played for me while I wasn't signed it, but Meta stuff can be tempermetal about that kind of thing.

I thought they still had two shows left but they only had one, and another promotion, 880 Wrestling, is going to run the date instead. It really sucks they're going out on such a low note, but it's totally understandable. They were a really fun and gay promotion, and they will be missed.

All their past shows, aside from the last one, are available on their YouTube channel.

John Silver is a married man now.

In June 2025, John Silver announced his engagement to Denise Liguori. It appears that the couple tied the knot on September 19.

On Saturday, Silver and Denise shared pictures and videos from their wedding on social media. Fellow wrestler Chuck Taylor was among the guests.

Silver is currently part of All Elite Wrestling. He’s one of the members of The Dark Order stable, which also consists of Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds, Preston Vance, and Brodie Lee Jr.

Fightful [and all of us here at SquaredCircle] would like to congratulate the newlywed couple and wish them all the best as they begin the next chapter in their life together.

Edit: I forgot to give this a title originally, sorry if it federated out with just the url.

Kota Ibushi provides an update following his most recent surgery on a recent leg injury, and on if he will return to the ring.

Ibushi has been out of action since November of last year when he suffered a fractured leg, and has had a range of complications from the injury as a result. Last week, he would undergo another surgery on the leg, and has now provided an update following the procedure.

While speaking in a new video posted to X, Kota Ibushi spoke about the surgery, noting that ‘a return to professional wrestling is almost impossible.’

“Fortunately, the surgery was successful, but I learned a few things from it. It seems that a return to professional wrestling is almost impossible. The plate that was replaced this time will not be removed from my perspective in the future, and will remain like this for life. Thanks to the treatment, I can now go about my life without any problems, but apparently there is a high chance it will break again if I do professional wrestling. When that happens, even daily life becomes difficult. In the past, I would have tried to make a comeback, but I’m confused because I don’t feel that motivation anymore. Is it due to age? Perhaps my body has come to understand that with these legs, I may never be able to return to my prime. That’s what I thought, I’m completely recovered after just two days since the surgery! Even though a comeback seems hopeless, I will definitely return to the ring. I don’t know how many years it will take, but I will never give up. However, my leg is in pretty bad shape, so I’m going to stop pushing as hard as I used to.”

Elsewhere in another update, Ibushi spoke about living on medication usually prescribed to cancer paitents. You can read more about that [below].

Kota Ibushi gives an update after surgery.

Earlier this week, Kota Ibushi underwent a second surgery on his femur, which has sidelined him since October 2025.

On social media, Kota gave an update after surgery and revealed that he’s been living on medication that is taken by cancer patients, which means his condition isn’t “normal” according to him.

From Kota:

“Regarding this surgery. This is the first thought that came to mind—maybe it’s only because of where I am right now, but I feel I need to write it down. It’s the first time I’ve felt like giving up, like I’m about to lose to myself.

“I don’t know what the future holds, but I’m grateful that I was able to wrestle professionally for 22 years.

“Setting aside whether I’ll make a comeback or not, the first question is whether I can even become a “normal” person again. For the past year or so, I’ve been living on medication typically prescribed to cancer patients. That means my condition isn’t normal—my specialist urged me to have another surgery as soon as possible, which led to this procedure. Given my age, I want some time to think things through, but I’m going to try to face the reality of my situation head-on. Surprisingly, I was able to get out of the wheelchair after just one day. I still can’t move very well, but I’ve managed to start using crutches”

He initially underwent surgery in October 2025 when he suffered the injury during a match with Josh Alexander. He underwent another surgery in February when a screw came loose.

It's Saturday, you know what that means! AEW Collision comes to us from Charleston Coliseum in Charleston, West Virginia!

Tonight's card includes, according to cagematch, absolutely nothing, so here's what I pulled from AEW's bluesky:

AEW National Title Match: Andrade El Ídolo (c) vs. Daniel Garcia

AEW TNT Title Match: Darby Allin (c) vs. Myron Reed

And surely more!

Till all are one!

The latest update on 2 Cold Scorpio.

According to court records, 2 Cold Scorpio (Charles Scaggs) was taken into custody and jailed on September 17 following his court appearance in Kansas City.

During the hearing, Scaggs acknowledged he had brandished a firearm, which was in violation of his bond.

Prosecutors filed a motion on September 11 seeking to revoke his bond and have him remanded to jail.

Court records for the hearing noted, “Court finds and believes Defendant to be clearly in violation of his bond conditions, and that said violation is a danger to public safety.”

He will be sentenced on October 9. He previously pleaded guilty on charges of second degree assault and armed criminal action.

He was arrested in June 2024 after getting into a fight with a man during an incident at the Love’s Travel Stop, where he was working as a security guard.

According to Scorpio, he was acting in self-defense. He claimed to authorities he was working as a security guard at the store and asked the man to not smoke inside. He claimed the man became upset and said, “F you the f*** you gonna do?” before threatening him. The victim claimed Scorpio was the aggressor.

You can now eat popcorn out of the head of Cody Rhodes.

Rhodes took to social media on Thursday to reveal the Guile hair popcorn bucket that will exclusive to AMC Theaters for the release of ‘Street Fighter’. In an interesting and possibly unsanitary turn of events, the popcorn bucket is wearable.

The cost of the Guile popcorn bucket was not revealed.

Aside from Rhodes, ‘Street Fighter’ will also feature other wrestlers like Roman Reigns and Hirooki Goto. Jason Momoa, Noah Centineo, David Dastmalchian, and 50 Cent also star in the film, which comes to theaters on Friday, October 16.

The article has an embeded tweet with a video, or you can check it out here on Bluesky.

Years after their first deal fell apart, MLW and Tubi have once again linked up.

MLW has struck a deal to air weekly program Fusion on Tubi, The Hollywood Reporter wrote this week.

Fusion will air on Thursday nights at 8 p.m. ET on the free streaming service, beginning this evening.

MLW was originally planned to ink a deal with Tubi in 2021, although the plan fell through. MLW later alleged in a lawsuit that WWE pressured Tubi to cancel the agreement. Tubi is owned by Fox who, at the time, had a deal to air WWE’s Friday Night Smackdown.

WWE later paid $20 million in an out-of-court settlement.

MLW debuted Fusion as a weekly program in 2018. The show has seen starts and stops over the years, most recently rebooting in late May.

Tubi is one of the many options for catching Fusion. The show will remain available to stream on Saturday nights via Youtube or VEEPs, as well as on Monday via NJPW World.

It's Wednesday, you know what that means! AEW Dynamite comes to us from Chartway Arena in Norfolk, Virginia!

Tonight's card includes:

Singles Match: Jericho vs. Nick Wayne

Six Man Tag Team Match: United Empire (Andrade El Idolo, Francesco Akira & Will Ospreay) vs. Death Riders (Gabe Kidd, Jon Moxley & PAC)

Singles Match: Jamie Hayter vs. Lena Kross

Eight Man Tag Team Match: Cage And Cope (Adam Copeland & Christian Cage), Darby Allin & Steven Borden vs. Don Callis Family (Kevin Knight & Kyle Fletcher) & FTR (Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood)

And more? Perchance.

Enjoy the show and have fun!

Kota Ibushi gives the latest update on his health.

Taking to Instagram, Ibushi stated that he will be undergoing a second surgery on his femur. The current plates will be removed and replaced with the strongest available option.

“I am being hospitalized starting today. Tomorrow, I will undergo a second surgery on my femur. They will remove all the current plates and replace them with the strongest available option, as the doctors said my current ones were simply too weak for my body and leg. Why now? It makes absolutely no sense to me. I am so exhausted from having to go through surgery after surgery. But I am not giving up. I refuse to let something like this end my professional wrestling career. I will make sure this surgery is a success and absolutely return to AEW,” he wrote.

He initially underwent surgery in October 2025 when he suffered the injury during a match with Josh Alexander. He underwent another surgery in February when a screw came loose.

Kota Ibushi was hoping to return to the ring in 2026.

Fightful continues to wish Ibushi all the best as he recovers.

The highest voted meme shall win and be showcased in next week’s thread!

Here's the old house show AEW said they were streaming today in memory of The Butcher. Rebel is on it too!

Live from the Rec Room in Toronto, Ontario, Canada it's Mystery Wrestling 29!

It's Saturday, you know what that means! AEW Collision comes to us from MassMutual Center in Springfield, Massachusetts!

Tonight's show is a tribute to The Butcher, Andy Williams. No matches have been announced and it will likely be a very emotional show.

Enjoy the show. ❤

Rebel spreading awareness.

Taking to her social media pages, Tanea Brooks, a.k.a. Rebel, posted about a bill, ACT for ALS, that will protect ALS research and treatment.

Brooks noted in her post that although it has unanimous support, Congress might keep pushing it off until the end of 2026 or longer.

She wrote:

“PLEASE WATCH AND READ… VERY URGENT!

You’ve heard me talking about how important I AM ALS and their bill – the ACT for ALS – means to me. Renewing it will secure another $500 million for ALS research and treatment access. Even though it has unanimous support, Congress might keep pushing it off until the end of the year or longer. Please sign your name to this petition and tell them that’s not ok. ALS deserves your support, and needs it now. We can’t afford to wait. The ALS community needs hope and we need it urgently ❤️

LINK IN BIO!!!

Thank you for all your support 🙌🏼”

On September 9th, All Elite Wrestling presented the ‘Rebel Heart’ edition of Dynamite. Brooks was featured in several segments on the show, including reuniting with Britt Baker.

Here's a link to the petition if anyone is interested.
