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.

Getting cut over questioning flying out of a different airport is rough.

I can also see the fact that they were given flights to take, asked why it wasn't from their usual nearby airport because they'd have to drive, then didn't take the flights and instead just assumed they'd been un-booked for the show because nobody followed up with them?

I think the issue really lands between themselves making assumptions, and whoever it was they questioned the flights with obviously not communicating with anyone else internally about the Boys looking for another travel option, leading everyone else to assume the Boys no-showed.

That's way too reasonable a take for an AEW thread.

Call Tony a crack addict or something.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Tony Montana could run AEW and I'd still be thinking The Boys half caused it themselves.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Well that's rather shitty.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

TK and AEW Front Office Communication Issues, name a more iconic duo.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

TK and Whiteclaws

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

TK and 8-balls.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

I concede defeat.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I wish they'd not been fired, but I worry its notable that the discussion they say they had with the travel person isn't included in any of what they've posted.

Although, even if they have no showed a bunch, Tk made this a story by commenting on the question rather than deflecting or giving a non-answer.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Whoops did a little shitting on the workers

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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.
