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.

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.

TNA is going through some pain since the loss of Scott, Anthem is starting to look like Sinclair before they ended up selling off ROH. The conspiracy theorist in me wants to believe that TNA was never supposed to get popular again and when it started, they knee-capped it.

Probably not anything that deliberate, but definitely it could be that D'amore wanted to keep building on the buzz TNA has been getting and grow it, and Anthem doesn't want to make that investment in the company for whatever reason.

Lots of people online were wondering if this all is gonna lead to WWE acquiring them, given how much they're working together (especially with HBK's comment that there's a lot more being planned). If Anthem see's the writing on the wall they may be looking to cash out instead of keeping it going like Scott wanted (but again that's ICW conjecture so~)

ngl i'm really worried that wwe will chew up tna and that would be a bad thing for wrestling :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

A worthwhile worry given...*glances at the uk wrestling scene*
