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)/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.

Any posts violating these rules may be removed.

Hayter coming out and I'm reminded of a month ago arguing on Reddit with this anthropomorphic turdblossom who was trying to say that Hayter coming back in 70s inspired attire constitutes a whole gimmick change and not 'the same woman doing the same gimmick but just changing up her look and attire' and I think about that a lot when it comes to how stupid the average nonfunctional mammal is.

Anywho~

[โ€“] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Reminds me of a similar brain dead discussion I had with someone back when Punk changed his entrance music to Cult of Personality, who got upset because they assumed this meant Punk was doing an '80s gimmick and Punk didn't change any of his attire to be more 80s or anything.

Some wrestling fans are fucking stupid, I don't know what to tell you

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yuta is me when I have to listen to Mox do a ramble-promo for the 2957th time without saying anything new/

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago

Oh lord he's monologuing again

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It really is nice of AEW to help me to care less and less about Big Bill and Whatever-the-fuck-the-other-guys-name-was by having them show up in a useless Jericho promo every goddamned episode.

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

I get his name is known, but why anyone would want to be attached to Jericho right now is beyond me

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)
[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago

I'll give Bryan Keith the benefit of the doubt since he's trying to get his career going.

Big Bill though... get it together man!

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

..was Ricochet wearing a sequinned turtleneck or did I hallucinate that?

[โ€“] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

The Sting in the front row was perfect. Like I thought that could have been Sting lol.

Also the way Omega and Osprey back flipped was amazing. I had to drag my wife back into the room and rewind to show her that.. and also when Taz referred to Brian Cage as shirtless.

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And there it is. Bye bye Malakai.

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

Hope he finds success where he goes

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago

No leaders! No masters! No gods!

[โ€“] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'll say it. Julia and Brody are the faces of the House of Black, not Malakai. He's done nothing for me.

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (3 children)

A friend in the former Going in Raw Discord just suggested that Malakai being the one to mist Julia way back when essentially made her the leader of the group. His mist is so pure and all corrupting that Julia became stronger than Malakai.

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

Makes sense for me Kayfabe wise.

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

That'll be my head canon going forward

That last promo was basically that, and it was awesome!

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't disagree! I think HoB can go forward without Malakai

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

Hopefully she'll heal up from that ankle injury and be back soon!

[โ€“] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yessss. And Ruby ๐Ÿ˜ญ

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I sometimes wonder if Ruby is ever coming back and that makes me sad

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She will. She only gave birth on Halloween, she'll have some time to go still during the newborn stage, having to get back into shape, ring rust, etc. With Parker not doing full time stuff right now I assume they'll probably juggle the kiddo and figure out wrestling by mid-year.

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Only October? Damn it feels like it was a lot longet ago!

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well in fairness she's been out almost a year total, she found out she was pregnant in February which is when her last match was.

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 23 hours ago

That's true!

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

~is it bad that I kinda donโ€™t miss Ruby?~

[โ€“] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

Everyone's got their preferences!

[โ€“] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Harley Cameron drop the album, pls

[โ€“] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

For real, Mercedes was grooving for a minute lol.

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

โ€œWhen you land flapjack jones like that, itโ€™s tough.โ€ - Taz

Mercedes sucks for saying no after that song

[โ€“] Hafty@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She didnโ€™t say no, she said โ€œnarโ€
