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.

Mina with the new gear, loving it.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

Goddamn, production nailed the coin drop sound effect this time!

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

*watches mina, toni and mariah post match*

...ok I got like...8 different potential titles for this clip when I post it later and I think I know which one to choose.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

Okada when Tana enters the ring: "Eh I've fought you enough before I'm out."

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Okada never fails to make me laugh my ass off with his antics

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

He's a hurdy gurdy away from air playing every instrument

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (4 children)

Okada just calls everyone bitch and somehow gets cheered even harder

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

He gave everyone a shaming kink in just a matter of weeks! It's impressive really!

Decent match, I need more Okada on my TV

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

A good match for Tanahasi to be in since the Acclaimed can easily carry the bulk of the match easily

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

😭😭😭 Nigel speaks for me

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

We are all Nigel right now

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Poor Mariah has to witness all this violence

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

Maybe her conflict is how much she loves having two women fight over her!

Also I guess enjoying that match makes me a certified sicko

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Jack probably shouldn't have pissed everybody off last night

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

Son gonna get learnt today

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Damn OC went back to the dark denim and Pixies really quick

Nigel sounds so concerned for Danielson, he should retire him for his own good

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

πŸ₯²Takeshita is gonna be a star

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 months ago

He's getting there! He needs gold soon!

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

Big Bill is such a dork to start wearing trunks because of Jericho

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I want more Vaquer, Mone should just go full heel but I guess being a delusional babyface kind of fits with the Elite as well

Britt might be the only woman who can upstage Mone effectively

MonΓ© was holding those belts awful close there.

I get why OC was on edge. He can't counter wrestle someone as good as ZSJ.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago (4 children)

OC did a hell of a job though! He did a lot more technical stuff than I've seen him do!

[–] Travon333@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh 100% at his core OC is a counter wrestle that taunts you to get engagement. ZSJ is a shithead in his own right though and has 2-3 layers of counters for everything

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)

He's such a good shit head

Don has been saying it for months! This Ospreay kid is too soft

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago (3 children)

I think Don's going to kick him out, probably in the most Don way possible

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Oh, 100%.

Maybe Ricochet shows up to save his ass. Or maybe Fletcher turns against Callis and stands by Ospreay.

I love Red Shoes never taking shit, fuck your chair Mox lmao.

[–] kessleragain@beehaw.org 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

My friend would be distraught to know Jericho didn’t come out to β€œJudas.”

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

That makes him the Judas in my mind

[–] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Kayfabe question of the day: What does it mean when Orange Cassidy changes his theme song back?
