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.

Mauro Ranallo is returning to pro wrestling.

Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Scott D'Amore revealed that Mauro Ranallo would be the announcer for Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling.

"Mauro Ranallo has agreed to be the voice of Maple Leaf Pro. He's the man. Mauro has passion for wrestling. I'm so stoked and so honored. The fact that he's willing to say, 'Yeah, I want to be part of this,' to me, is unbelievable. He's the man. He's so good," said D'Amore.

D'Amore praised Mauro for his preparation and passion after making the announcement.

Mauro was the announcer for NJPW in the US in 2015 before joining WWE and working on SmackDown and NXT. He called the AEW Title vs. IMPACT Title match between Kenny Omega and Rich Swann at IMPACT Rebellion in 2020.

Mauro is best known for calling major MMA and boxing events, including Conor McGregor vs. Floyd Mayweather.

Good for him. Glad he has recovered from his time in WWE.

[–] jay@mbin.zerojay.com 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I wonder how much of the problems he had with WWE came down to Vince.

[–] GeekFTW@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Probably a big chunk him, and then JBL pushing him over the edge.

[–] jay@mbin.zerojay.com 3 points 2 months ago
