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.

Nitter

Not surprising in the least as a lot of people figured she'd be on her way out the door once D'Amore was canned (they are engaged for those not in the know). Expectations are that she ends up in Maple Leaf Pro but I could see her doing the indie rounds easily as well.

All of your "who is this wrestler?" questions can be solved in seconds thanks to a new internet invention called "search engines". They seem to be the latest online fad, as there's Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo, just to name a few. They've only been around for a couple decades, so I can understand why you might not have heard of them.

Tap for spoilerBig freakin' /s in case it isn't obvious.

In all seriousness, save yourself the down votes and use Google, or whatever your preferred search may be.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Next you'll tell me computers can make calls and send text messages, too.

Don't forget the 'Hunting Season' scene, that was the shit too.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

he was the bomb in phantoms

also fun fact i never saw good will hunting and the only thing i know about gus van sant is from jay and silent bob and i'm 1000% ok with that.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He was also the bomb as Batman, yo.

Tap for spoilerSeriously, I was genuinely excited at the idea of Affleck as Batman. He really wanted to do the character justice (no pun intended), and he's the one actor that looks the most "Bruce Wayne" of all those to portray him before or since. Unfortunately, Affleck as Batman suffered the same fate as Affleck as Daredevil, the interpretation was poor. If he had written and/or directed those movies himself, the hate would be warranted. But as an actor, all he can do is give the best performance he can within the confines of the director's vision. Hell, look at Ryan Reynolds, people hated him as Green Lantern but love him as Deadpool. The difference is GL is a shit movie, while DP is great. Seems everyone loves DP.

Who's down with DP?

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Who’s down with DP?

phrasing

haha j/k seriously though i will also agree that ben affleck was amazing in dogma (hell the whole movie is amazing - but alan rickman most of all).

but also i can never see any other batman other than michael keaton :(

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Despite being an 80's kid, my very first Batman was Adam West. Batman and Robin were also part of the Superfriends, and would occasionally show up on Scooby Doo. Then came Keaton in '89, and Batman TAS a couple years later. I was also starting to get into the comics around '90-'91. So by the time I was a teenager, I had already learned there were many interpretations of the beloved character, which opened me up to not really caring about continuity nor favoring specific portrayals. What I care about most, is being entertained.

Who’s down with DP?

You knew what you were doing when you typed that.

But, me.

[–] Neon_Carnivore@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

I stole the joke from a T-shirt, the front reads "I ❀ DP" with an image of Deadpool on the back. Not sure if it was official merch or not.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

Word, Phantoms like a ma-fucker. 🀚
