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

Did the Young Bucks seriously roll up in a fucking Cybertruck?

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

I hope it was a rental lol

They tried to recall it, but not mine was a great line

[–] kessleragain 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Willow always makes me happy.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Absolutely love her.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 7 months ago (2 children)

forgot dynasty was on since ive been emotionally drained from finishing rebirth will buy it on fite tomorrow since i have to get aew plus again anyway (:

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)
[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

it was amazing. i played the original back in 97 when i was about 16 but everything came back to me like i doesn't miss a beat. the characters honestly mean so much to me but especially aerith! it was 15 out of 10

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Nice! I played the original FF I don't know how many hundreds of hours, but haven't gotten brave enough to get remake or rebirth

yaay! it's so good! ☺️

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm dying to play Rebirth but I don't have a PS5, so I'm waiting for the pc version. Trying to avoid spoilers has been a nightmare. I've lost count of how many times I've played through the original over the last quarter century across several platforms, and I've played through Remake/Intergrade 3 times.

Also, I still want a remake of FFVI (Pixel Remaster doesn't count).

i hope the pc version comes out soon!

id love an actual ffix remake with voice actors too (besides the fan made one)

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Chuck better not join Trent! They'll never let him say shit on TV if he does!

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

No matter what happens I am not ready.

[–] scumm_boy@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Was that a "Go home Jericho" chant?? LOL

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

And a 'please retire' one.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

I kinda figured that might be a faster match since Julia is banged up

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

Fuck yeah Swerve!

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

BOOOOOOOOOΓ“OOOOOOOO the learning tree is stupid

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago (3 children)

What's the deal with Cole giving Wardlow the stink eye?

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

Wardlow just can't find a group that actually likes him :(

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 7 months ago

Wardlow will be out of the group within 2-3 weeks and then feuding with them. Guaranteed.

I want a Brodie vs Eddie rivalry now

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)
[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Two junkyard dogs!

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Officially caught up and ready for tonight's show! Can't wait!

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

5am, up, starting the show and have only had two things spoiled for me, lfg!! XD

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

lol, same. Jericho is making his entrance as I type this.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The chants during that match were stellar lmao

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

My girlfriend joked that the crowd must have practiced those chants because they were on point

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 7 months ago

Hate unites people for bad and for good lmao.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

I loved Eddy getting so worked up he fell over his own feet

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Not Kyle! He's just a boy that doesn't get enough sleep!

But Adam Cole isn't in a boot anymore!!!!

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Walking tall!

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

LOL Fozzy sucks chant

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

Now it's Go home Jericho chant! Absolutely no mercy lol

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Anyone else having frequent buffering on Triller? I bought from them instead of B/R because I always seem to have stutters on B/R, but Triller has been even worse.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

It did towards the beginning of the PAC vs Okada match, but since then it's been okay

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Jesus what a match

Also sorry Bryan you faked that seizure so I'm going to have doubts now

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Yeah I'm not checking till I'm done the event but I'm not even gonna worry for now lol.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 months ago

Jungle Boy is back!Β‘!!!

Absolutely amazing show. Was utterly shocked to see Perry return, but it makes complete sense in retrospect (and now, honestly, showing the All In footage makes a little more sense too). I'm not sure if I expected Swerve to win the big belt, but I'm glad he did; it was a great moment, and he deserves it.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Hey look at that, Mone making another useless appearance for no reason.

We get it, you're gonna fight each other, just like..do something lol.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Given how long it was between "rumor is Mercedes is in talks with AEW" to her actually being "All Elite", we'll probably get her first AEW match in 2025.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago

Followed by breaking a bone and being out a year (but seriously don't lol).

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Max out here going nearly R-rated like Xavier Woods on the preshow lmao.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 7 months ago

He's had that all built up over the past couple of months lol

[–] kubj31196@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

AEW production is so bad, that Bryan/Osprey Knee vs Blade epic clash and they filmed the two guys' butts in mid-air. As WWE's camera work improves, AEW's flaws become more and more apparent.

I mean, zoom out a little bit, damn it!
