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)/Websites.

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.

Also due to technical issues, bigotry/extremism, and various other issues, we do not accept URL submissions from the following websites:

  • Twitter/X

Any posts violating these rules may be removed.

Reigns/Rhodes is Match of the Year? It was entertaining, but nowhere near MotY.

I don't see what people see in Cody. He's so boring and his Cross Rhodes is the sloppiest one.

I thought the whole finish the story stuff was fine at first but it just drug on and on, and much like his AEW stuff the man just doesn't know how to change things up, same promo and/or same match every time he comes out. Call me fickle but I kind of miss the attitude era hot potatoes of some titles.

I don't see what people see in Cody

WWE presents him a big star and that's all that matters. But it wasn't that long ago they were calling him a "three star general".

I like him when he's being a smarmy heel cause he does it well. He learned from some of the best.

When he's a face..he's not for me. But I'm not the intended demographic. Cody is there for the children.

We grew up and looked up to the person that Terry Bollea pretended to be, seeing him be an almost goddamned superhero. This generation needs their own Hulk and Cody is as whitebread babyface superhero as it is right now for a little kid watching wrestling. Ain't for me, but if the kids like it I'll live.

Cross Rhodes suck ass tho.

If this is kayfabe, Cody being male wrestler of the year makes sense. But Toni being female wrestler of the year makes zero sense. She lost her mind AND her title. And her butler.
