This is the "official" Fediverse community for all things pro wrestling!

Come discuss pro wrestling! Any company or era is welcome.

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.

Ahhh, but I thought Tony was one of the GOOD billionaires?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nothing to do with being a billionaire, everything to do with being a manchild who can't delegate for shit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's a pretty wild take when its clear the travel which is the alleged problem here was entirely delegated.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

"can't delegate for shit" can also mean "is terrible at delegating", which I think applies here.

He let a whole ass game of telephone take place, and spoke to the media giving a half-assed, one sided reading of the situation. Sounds pretty bad to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

He likely is (and should be) so far removed from travel that you're talking about several layers of delegation. The alleged failures of the person organising the travel (bear in mind these issues are from an equally one sided reading from the boys) is miles removed from TK, and it should be - there's many things far more important he should think about other than travel bookings.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but then he should also not stake a hard position on shit he's so far removed from, should he?

Like, there's a reason you stay vague if you're not 100%, just say something like "there were disciplinary issues" if you really want to blame them, don't say something specific enough they can rebut, that's basic corpo speak.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Tony just really needs to hire a proper PR team, and social media team, hand over media call/scrum/twitter duties to them, use his newfound time for a seventh 8-ball a week, and then so many problems will be resolved.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

@GeekFTW @MolochAlter so many of AEW's problems could be solved by Tony Khan letting go of the wheel more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Whoever is booking RoH should be just in charge of booking in general, IMO

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

@MolochAlter wish I could justify the sub for RoH. Glad to hear it's good! I thought Tony was booking that himself too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If he is, then he must be suffering from some dissociative disorder because the booking could not be more different from AEW.

Also, it's easy enough to pirate it, and right now I'm not so confident in anything TK that I'd start a subscription around it.
