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.

Damn. Guess that's that for her.

Edit:

"Thank you for your continued support of Tokyo Women's Pro Wrestling. This is a sudden notice to inform you that one of our members, Hikari Noa, has graduated from Tokyo Women's Pro Wrestling and has left the organization.

Hikari Noa has been inactive since December of last year, but she has requested to leave and we have discussed her future plans with her, and as a result, we have come to this conclusion.

We apologize to those who have been waiting for the resumption of activities that we have not been able to respond to their wishes. There will be no greeting or comment from her to her fans. We ask for your understanding in this matter as well.

We sincerely hope that Hikari Noa will be able to move on to the next stage of her life.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and worry this may cause to her fans, but we would like to ask for your continued support and help for Tokyo Women's Pro Wrestling."

Edit2: A bluesky post I saw mentioned it could be related to some kind of 'scandal' where Noa may have been involved in 'revealing backstage secrets to a fan', but I'm OOTL when it comes to a lot of TJPW stuff so I don't know the details there lol.

If Hikari got the axe for "sharing backstage secrets", surely the word "termination" would have been used instead of "graduation".

It's possible that she's being moved from TJPW to Marigold, given the timing of this announcement and the premier Marigold show.

I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Edit: Looks like I was wrong.
