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.

Every AEW show, Taz just seems to cause CONSTANT non-stop awkward moments, and bickering without payoff.

Meanwhile, everytime Don Callis is on commentary, he's the star of the show. At least the commdntary portion of the show.

And can we all admit that for as bad as Tony Schivone was in WCW, he's pretty great in AEW.

And as much as I hate to admit it, Excaliber is a top notch commentary, and there's a reason he's lead announcer.

........but Taz needs to go.

What is it this week with people asking for things to come to murder as the solution to conflict resolution? You.....Vince telling Shane he'd have to stab him in the heart if he wanted his idea approved.......I'm sure politics will have some of this before November.

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

Bruh, I'm simply saying I wouldn't want such a change, unless I'm dead, in which case, I wouldn't care. Because dead people tend to care about very little. If you wish to elevate this to attempted murder, all I can say is:

I fight dirty, I hug and kiss!

Now, all that silliness out of the way:

If I had to replace Tazz, it would be with Matt Menard before Don Callis. Not because Carny Hot Dog is bad at commentary, I just like Hot Dog Man as a heel manager that occasionally does commentary much more than as a full-time commentator. I also really like Tazz on commentary, mainly for the same reasons you listed for disliking him. He's also aware that the IWC likes his silly/awkward moments, and he leans into that, much in the same way Jericho's Learning Tree gimmick is rooted (pun intended!) in the criticism he's getting.

Matt Menard

I.....uh......who?

Edit: Oh, you mean daddy magic! I can never decide if I love him, or if he's annoying.
