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.

Unfortunate news out AEW with several injury updates this week.

An ROH regular is sidelined with an injury, as Cole Karter announced he'd undergone surgery on a broken arm. AEW sources noted that Karter would likely be out of action for a number of months, until the later part of the year or early 2025.

Karter had been performing on ROH TV for the last year, teaming with Griff Garrison. Most recently, they and Anthony Henry defeated Serpentico and The Infantry. Karter last appeared on AEW TV in March 2023 on AEW Dark. The last time he appeared on AEW cable TV was a December 2022 squash match.

Riho also sustained an injury during her AEW Collision match on Saturday. She was poised for a feud with Serena Deeb, but now there's no word on how long she could be sidelined. Riho hadn't appeared for AEW in four months ahead of the start of the feud.

Yuka Sakazaki, who was also planned for a Serena Deeb feud, has also been sidelined with an injury. She's been out of action since April.

Riho has fans?

Yes. I am one of them. Her AEW Unrivaled action figure is displayed among numerous wrestling figures in my home.

I never even heard of the other one.

This coming from the person who gave me a wall of text telling me I needed to familiarize myself with wrestling or else I don't deserve my position as moderator.

•pokes with stick• Hehehe

........?

What? When was this? Did you say something about not knowing what the tag rope was for? Or didn't know the significance of the NWA and the territory system?

I have no idea what you're referencing.

What is being referenced:

Neon is lightheartedly poking fun at you for not knowing who Yuka Sakazaki is, someone who is quite well known across several promotions on both sides of the world and especially to those who watch AEW, in the same way you made fun of him (tho it was more aggressive than just making fun) three weeks ago in this thread:

With this comment...

"…are you serious? That’s scary. I came to Lemmy because reddit has an AI bot that will find keywords, and ban you for contexts that were never being used. I literally threw that last part in as a sarcastic jab at reddit style modderating.

I kind of feel like if you’re a moderator of a community, you should be firmiliar with the source material you’re modding.

He’s been saying that for like 18ish months now. Given that most of their roster is 30s and 40s, a lot of their dads are dead from natural causes. So he says that to literally EVERYONE. There’s even a compilation on youtube, but it all started with Nick Wayne, because it was supposed to be a sympathetic story. Then Christian Cage goes on and on for weeks about how his dad is dead.

Maybe…follow the source material before being a mod?"

..in which you picked on him for 'not knowing the source material he's modding'. As such, he's having his own go at you in return to pay you back. Not hard to figure out lol.
