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’m in a situation where we’re having historic collaboration between TNA Wrestling and WWE. We’re in a situation where TNA Wresting have worked it out with WWE where I can appear on TNA Wrestling as a contracted talent, I can appear on NXT, and I can train at the Performance Center full-time and do indies and do signings. This is unprecedented. It’s never been done before in the business. So thank you to TNA and WWE for figuring it out," Hendry said.

I see big things for him in WWE in the future.

3 years ago I saw some youtube video of him doing weird al style parodies of songs as his entrance to some indy fed. I loved it so much I wondered if he had more......and boy did he!

I said "This guy is going to end up on the WWE or AEW roster. And he's going to be HUGE!!!"

How TNA didn't make the guy their world champion, doing parodies every month at their PPVs, I'll never know.

Now WWE are interested, and he's the most popular he's ever been. You can tell when his TNA deal is up, he's NXT bound permanently until he gets called up to main roster.

And Danhausen would be another great get. How AEW fucked that up, I'll never know. Guy could have been an easy upper midcard, lower main event guy. But the real value of Danhausen, is that you can plug him in ANYWHERE, and it works. You could have him facing Kenny Omega on a PPV for the international/american championship, Then on Wednesday have him in a trios match against something totally unrelated to Omega, and then on Saturday he could be facing Miro.

And because it's Danhausen, he doesn't need a story to do the things he does. He's like R-Truth in the sense that he's off in his own little world, and everybody around him is just reacting to his daily antics.

And he's like Sean Waltman in that he's believable enough to work with anyone, and win, or lose, and it won't affect his character one bit.

And Joe Hendry will probably hook up with him in WWE. Joe Hendry vs Danhausen will sell so many tickets. And so much merch.

To be entirely fair to AEW, Danhausen was hurt for a good chunk of his tenure there. Made it hard to capitalize on the momentum he had going in.
