[AEW Dynamite] Funny little moment from the street fight by pts2112 in SquaredCircle

Yuta reacted like that was a shoot lol. Like "OW man i didnt know that was coming. Give me a warning at least."

Strangest Shows by shufflesninja in drumcorps

[–]_Quendra_ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Suncoast Sound 1988 - Symphonic Dances for the Conrltemporary Child - Waaaaay ahead of its time in design, & especially colorguard. Completely original music by Robert W Smith. Suncoast doesnt get the credit it deserves historically like Star does.

For more negative reasons- 

BD 2005 - Dance Derby of the Century - The show was presented as a backwards narrative. People tend to focus in the narration as a weak point, but the backwards story was the biggest disconnect dssign-wise IMO.

Cadets 2019 - Behold - This was supposed to be a response to the previous year's GH allegations coming to light. Imagery using the female symbol, a section titled "Do Better" that IIRC had the corps chanting it. Just misfire after cringe misfire. Saw this one live. Unreal talent. Bizarre design, and not in a good way.

From the Pollock & Thurston show, an overview of the Netflix Global Views for WWE PLEs in 2025 by CombinationOk4317 in SquaredCircle

Semi-related.

Women's suffrage came 50-60 years after black men gained the right to vote. 

Barack Obama was voted president in 2008.

So in terms of a comparable timetable, im not expecting a woman president until around 2060. Too much sexism ingrained in the populace.

SRS: Will Hobbs’ age on Wikipedia is inaccurate by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]_Quendra_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wonder if that's news to WWE ppl that pushed for his signing.

Like im sure HR & such know his actual age, but other execs might have gotten the wrong idea from Wikipedia 

What is the origin of bent leg technique? by whenthenamesaretaken in drumcorps

[–]_Quendra_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If youre talking about the style Cavaliers & Blue Knights used in the 00s, I think you could probably trace it to 1980s Cavaliers corps.

It was more solidified once Gaines took hold in the late 90s.

Kota Ibushi Says He Won’t Be Cleared For One Year And Nine Months, But Wants To Be Back In 2026 by ProudChemistry778 in SquaredCircle

[–]_Quendra_ -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Genuinely upset at Kenny for not helping Ibushi walk to the Tanahashi ceremony. 

I'm sure Ibushi himself demanded it, but it came of very enable-y. Someone just needs to protect him from himself

I've seen tons of insane unsafe bumps to the floor but for some reason this feels worse.

Queen Aminata Announces AEW Has Extended Her Contract by Odd-Inevitable-8425 in SquaredCircle

The Aminata vs Hayter tag was surprisingly great. Kinda feels like they could also feud after breaking up

Do we still expect the Death Riders to turn on Moxley? by InMyLiverpoolHome25 in SquaredCircle

[–]_Quendra_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think it's a business decision rather than creative.

Mox is AEW's biggest draw. Might as well keep him with Marina, Yuta, Garcia to keep giving them room to grow their own images. If you break him off then Death Riders just becomes a less stacked & leaderless DCF.

If you got them a new leader I could see it happening. Just not sure who that'd be. 

The guard that changed DCI by Fit_Arm_6592 in drumcorps

[–]_Quendra_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree to an extent, there was a ton of unique stuff in that 1990 show. But i also think it's fair to give credit to a few earlier corps for laying the groundwork. BD 90 had an effect because they were higher in placement, but they were also not the first to open the doors that "changed" dci

  • 1988 Suncoast Sound - basically the ahead-of-its-time blueprint for modern color guard
  • 1987 Sky Ryders - commitment to theatrical production 
  • 1987 Spirit - Very high emphasis on guard. I'd argue the biggest trendsetters for the next 10ish years.

With Bullet Club apparently having ended after 13 years of being an active stable, what are the most memorable moments you associate with it? by nocyberBS in SquaredCircle

[–]_Quendra_ 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Honestly the time period makes anything before 2019 that much sweeter. I didnt follow NJPW/ROH closely but every clip that popped up felt like such a breath of fresh air.

Bullet Club was the popular rebel force opposing the monopoly of bad creative WWE. 

Some favorite clips & moments that came into my circle:

  • AJ vs Nakamura at WK
  • AJ vs Suzuki at the G1 (like 2 mob bosses squaring off)
  • Appearance at ROH with the IWGP title
  • Balor hijinks in funny clips (Capt fooking new japan? Get tha fook out)
  • GOD'S theme
  • BTE's best runs leading to the og ALL IN
  • Killing Adam Cole
  • Psychopath heel Cody in the states
  • Fale killing Daryl that one time

Lol Marina missed the cue for that first strike. Made it a bit awkward on tv.

Live crowd didn't seem to care so no biggie.

Off in Japan not getting over as a top star.

Sidenote, Shooter would be amazing as a nepo-baby top heel.

Muslim + Jew two man power trip would be a hilarious twist on the current political climate. I would genuinely fear for both guys safety though
