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.

I'll have to pass on watching this one. I have fond memories of Mick and don't want them muddied by a bad "last match".

Quite Flair

[–] zjti8eit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago

to be even more fair, how many last matches did his homeboy Terry Funk have?

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (2 children)

Honestly, if Flair was able to survive his “last match” I’m not concerned about Mick

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Despite my eyes, I'm still not sure Flair did survive his last match lol.

I just wish Foley didn't give up on DDP and his program, he supposedly had been doing it but at some point just stopped for some random reason. He may be in better shape now if he hadn't.

Ric’s kinda been a walking corpse for a while lol.

It’d probably be better for Mick if he stuck with yoga but I’m sure DDP and Austin will reach out to him to make sure he’s safe and sure before the match. Weirdly probably three of the most decent men the industry ever produced

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ric flair was pathetic in his last few matches

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Well yeah, but he’s alive, I wasn’t sure he’d make it

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah I'm not looking forward to it..but I'll still watch the car crash.

[–] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 4 points 8 months ago

I am down with and I can comment here

[–] kessleragain@beehaw.org 4 points 8 months ago

Mick… no. Just call DDP or something.

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world -4 points 8 months ago

I remember loving Mick and how he pushed the boundaries. Now as an adult I think he's an idiot for doing all that to himself. Not to mention that as good as he was, he opened the door for a bunch of talentless nobodies to enter the wrestling industry, solely on their ability to take stupid risks and bumps.

I loved his Mic skills as makind, and his hard hitting style, but once he won the title, he should have stopped with all the death match shit.

Companies like AEW are filled with guys who think wrestling is just chairs, tables, bumps and high spots. And that's partly Mick's fault.
