For those unaware, ever since the US Presidential Election there has been a mass exodus of users from Twitter/X over towards Bluesky and this also includes several pro wrestlers, wrestling media and promotions beginning to use Bluesky as their official social media of choice.

For those who are on Bluesky, ImADifferentBird has put together a starter pack of Bluesky users who are part of this ‘Wrestlesky’ community, and there are several others as well.

There are currently several pro wrestling feeds on Bluesky, listed below:

Primary pro wrestling feed

Puroresu feed

Joshi feed

Wrestling art

To date, AEW and TNA have both joined (ROH too but they aren’t active yet) and we’ve been seeing a big influx of pro wrestlers coming in and reactivating old accounts or creating brand new ones.

Should there be any wrestlers or anyone else you want to point out specifically, drop the info in the comments below (and/or recommend them to the maintainers of any starter packs if they aren’t listed).

Hopefully we’ll be able to do away with posting twitter links entirely soon!

Edit: EVE, NJPW, and Maple Leaf Pro have all also joined!

    Thank you for all the extra info!

    My experiences here, on Mastodon, and now BlueSky have been so positive with people freely offering tips and advice like this. For a long time I’d kinda thought the internet was just shit.

      And more: If you search my profile on BS (same name), i retweeted a day or two ago a thread with 5-6 blocklists for maga/trolls/musk nutters/cryptobros/scammers/NFT fuckers, and search ‘wrestling blocklist’ you’ll find 1-3 with wrestling jackasses too

      A lot of the internet sadly is shit, but we just gotta relearn the old ways to improve it again. We always had ways to find what we needed, we just got complacent with the methods that were easiest to have spoonfed to us and stopped putting in effort to find better options. Since the pandemic people have been smartening up bit by bit, and a big move like this T>BS deal goes a long way to helping that.
