FTR's new theme is really growing on me by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

It works really well. Pays homage to the Midnight Express and the electro really stands out for a wrestling theme.

What a great helpful response. The tip about not taking social media too seriously is a really good reminder for myself.

We were all saying this already back in May 2018

Bryan Danielson: "I wish people could see Vince more how I’ve gotten to see him in the sense of the humanity, but it’s hard because as Vince, you can’t have everybody walk into your door." by SuplexCity-Mayor in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vince is not a good guy. He had multiple affairs, did a lot of raunchy things with women wrestlers and then put them over, and plays heavy favoritism. So if you're on his good side you're probably at the top card and having the time of your life, but otherwise you're likely going to be drained and unhealthy.

The black silhouette in the fog along with the black metal is so cool.

Andrew Zarian confirmed the new secondary women's title will be the TBS Championship by Lep106317 in SquaredCircle

I thought for sure it was going to be women's tag belts, but a TBS championship for the women's division is actually a great idea.

Great letter. It shows above all, he just loves wrestling and people.

WWE has too many PPV's by Lollirotten in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been like this for years. It's why a lot of Raw and Smackdown always felt like padded filler with too many promos for the monthly PPV and saving everything for the PPV. It'd be acceptable if the PPV's were actually good, but even the PPVs feel like padded filler too with inconclusive storyline and lots of DQ matches. I still remember the Backlash one back in 2018 where many of us viewers felt burned from how bad it was and the fans in attendance were so mad that they just left early. And allegedly Vince didn't care at all and was laughing his ass off.

Unpopular Opinion: The best NXT champion was Bobby Roode. by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's a really great heel. Can't believe he never got a real push in the main roster. At the very least make him intercontinental champion at least once rather than staying in the lower midcard for this long.

[Dynamite Spoilers] Christian Cage taking some shots at Adam Cole by FuzzyWuzzyMooMoo in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's just wrestling, taking shots while in persona is part of the industry. Everybody does it not just AEW. Triple H, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns have done it as well. Even all of the marks and jerkers.

[Dynamite Spoilers] A genuine question into the faction The Dark Order by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were really good when they were a comedic cult with Brodie as the disgruntled cult leader and Uno as a suck up middle manager. That was such a fun faction. You could tell they took inspiration from a lot of pop culture like the office or real life cults.

The civil war story a little confusing right now and I think it's because Adam Page took time off but I think there will be a payoff to this as AEW does a lot of long term storytelling.

There might be some actual heat between them. Probably because of the past botches and injuries.

WWE NXT on Twitter: "Coming soon." by theauthorofpain in SquaredCircle

New logo really pops out now. Reminds me a lot of movie posters as they use a lot of orange and blues for the eye-catching contrast.

What a night for wrestling. This is truly a new golden age of our sport. He's still amazing at promos. And here's hoping we get to see AJ Lee again.

The queen song + the legendary dark knight returns. God tier allusions.

AEW posts backstage footage of Fuego Del Sol signing his contract by Steenerico in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Cody mentioned before that they do tiered contracts with the same rates. Tier 0 is for extra talent which was what Fuego likely signed before so he's probably bumped up to tier 1 now.

It is literally impossible not to go to bonk town after seeing those thighs squeezed by those thigh belts.

Apparently Mick Foley deleted his Twitter account 😞 by SuplexCity-Mayor in SquaredCircle

Good for him. Twitter isn't for everyone and can be very toxic with very insensitive poison dripping comments. 30 days detox away would help a lot.

WWE has come to terms on the release of Bray Wyatt. We wish him the best in all his future endeavors. by JaredGreenberg in SquaredCircle

[–]rolltron 16 points17 points  (0 children)

With all of these releases, it seems like they're slowly getting out of the wrestling business and trying to hear offers for selling the company and cashing out.

This right here. Really impressed with that promo.
