Didn't see mention this, but Leslie Lee III died last November. He was famous in joshi fandom as JohnHyperionHe ran his own joshi dirtsheet called Dirty Dirty Sheets. RIP
>>19684889It seems he died of suicide. https://xcancel.com/leslieleeiii/status/1989436127351325171
And yes, he was JohnHyperion
Men's mental health is important guys: if you feel hopeless, just bump the same five posts over and over again on /pw/.
This motherfucker was a lolcow who was still obsessed with Covid and masking in 2025. Don't know about his earlier stuff in the IWC, but let me give you a rundown on his last few years.>Ran a leftist nerd podcast called Struggle Session (I'm not kidding), has had the Chapo Trap House guys guest on it>Was a AEW fanboy and hated WWE, called them evil>Punk gets fired>Suddenly turns on AEW>Says TK is also now evil and incompetent>Had a one man attempt to cancel Will Ospreay because he thinks Ospreay did a Benoit tribute move in his match with Danielson, and this was evil according to him>Starts repeating Cornette talking points and even interacts with guys like AEWMole and XeroNews>Still says WWE is evil through out all of this, so gets hated by all sides>People make fun of him, he name searches himself on Xwitter, gets into arguments which usually ends when he blocks the person. Has gotten into fights with people who made fun of him months ago but only sees their tweets much later. >Claims to have long Covid and made it his whole thing. Calls people racists/antiblack for no longer wearing masks in public in 2025. >Attributes each new death and the rise in cancer to Covid. People have pointed out he's a black guy in his 40's and is obese, which might be the cause of his health problems. He just blocks them. Pic related was how he looked. His doctors probably told him he doesn't have long covid, he's just fat and needs to lose weight. Which made him an hero himself.
>>19684896Here's him on the old Shimmer forumshttps://shimmerwomen.proboards.com/thread/3722/ayumi-kurihara-appreciation-thread?page=8
>>19684915The best part is, other leftists found him annoying with his long covid bullshit. The Chapo guys guested on his Struggle Sesh podcast years ago, and barely anyone of note did the podcast in the last few years. He only Taylor Lorenz because she's a psycho who still masks in public in 2025. When he died, the Chapo guys didn't even mention him on their podcast. I think just Will Menaker retweeted a RIP post, and that's it from them.
Probably my favorite of one of Leslie's last blowups. >One of his Twitter enemies is an AEW fanboy called Hurtkull/Otis P. Stinktrigger>Otis makes fun of him a lot for being a closet Cornette fanboy for awhile>Leslie fucking hates him>Later Otis posts a gofundme, saying he has to take care of his wife who has cancer>Leslie screencaps and says Otis isn't so happy now that his wife is now sick with what Leslie thinks is Long Covid>Otis freaks out, yells at Leslie, and says his wife got breast cancer and she had no prior Covid infections>Otis makes over $3,000 on gofundme>Leslie makes one too at the same time, barely got over $800 before he died
>>19684915This was most of Leslie's posts in the last year of his life.
>>19684915Oh, and also comic book Twitter hated him too because he also apparently had really bad takes, such as pic related.
>>19684952After Kurt called him out Leslie deleted the tweet in pic related
>>19684907Kek
JOHN HYPERION IS FUCKING DEAD?!!I remember him from like 12+ years ago on Joshifans. He was a massive Kana (Asuka) mark because she was hot during the period where Kana was getting heat for being an unsafe shitter trying to be like her hero Akira Maeda. If anyone there criticized her he'd sperg out and start arguments. I got involved in one of his sperg outs because I criticized her and he followed me to a different site/forum to continue trying to Correct The Record.He used to run a site called Dirty Dirty Sheets that was focused mainly on joshi (the ones he found hot of course; he wasn't going to talk about the dykey butch ones). He's partly responsible for the whole perception of Act being an innocent victim of Yoshiko because he was the one who did that interview about how she's just a poor soul with grave's disease overcoming adversity (even though the rest of the article also shows she's a menhera with a severe drinking problem).
>>19684975He was an English Teacher in Japan, which is how he got to interview so many joshis.
>>19684889HOLY>>19684892FUCKIN>>19684896K>>19684915W>>19684952A>>19684924BOTY>>19684955
>>19684983He also wrote this piece of shithttps://medium.com/@lleeiii/japan-s-no-good-very-bad-black-history-month-39e1adbe6efd
>>19684915>Long Covid
>>19684889>He was famous in joshi fandom a-didn't even need to open the thread to know it was suicide
>>19684975Joshi fandom outside of Japan has largely been oe of three types of fans: lesbos/fags, gooners and people who just like wrestling. After Joshifans died, he lesbos/fags seem to have eventually ended up on r/JoshiPuroIsland and are generally the ones into old lady promotions like Oz, Marvelous and Senjo as it's what most carries the lineage of the 2000s (and thus '90s) stuff.The gooners ended up on places like r/stardomjoshi and as expected mostly stick with the promotions that have the pretty wrestlers. These were the types who were obsessed back in the day with Kana, Ayumi Kurihara and the Shirais. Kevin Wilson and Leslie Lee/John Hyperion fall squarely into this category.The third group was more nebulous. Some of them fell into the lesbo/fag camp, some into the gooner camp, some really did just only give a shit about wrestling. Dave Meltzer, for example, falls into the gooner-leaning contingent of this camp.
King of Kings gets another one
>>19684985
>>19684915Yeah, it was weird how quickly he turned on AEWhttps://x.com/leslieleeiii/status/1646980051559419904/
>Jonathan Daniel Brown had an annoying Chapo-affiliated podcast about video games named Struggle Session with two dirtbag leftists personalities during the 2016 election. One of the other hosts killed himself last week after becoming a long covid obsessive and was trying to tweet tough threatening tweets to Tim Dillon, even tho he was still scared to leave his house over Covid and would kill himself that same week. Jack Allison the third guy, got famous for writing a Kimmel take down post since he was a writer on his show that revealed Kimmel to be a giant pushover as a boss who Allison yelled at for giving him a raise and in general was an entitled insane person that quit an amazing job for basically no reason. Jack and his then wife were very early Leftist streamers who stopped doing it right after the pandemic. They got divorced, the wife transitioned and is now making bad electronic music with their MtF girlfriend.

This dude wasn't just another joshi fan.He ran r/ProWrestling, which was Reddit's first Pro Wrestling board. But he ran it so annoyingly (He refused to allow discussion of WWE) that people made r/SquaredCircle.Leslie Lee aka JohnHyperion is the reason why we have r/SquaredCirclehttps://old.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/o9rhu2/the_rsquaredcircle_archives_the_first_day_of/
>>19685052Here's him ranting on why other women's wrestlers like Kana and Serena Deeb deserve more attention then Punk when he did the Pipebomb lolhttps://old.reddit.com/r/prowrestling/comments/ibbba/the_picture_on_the_right_is_cm_punk/
imagine knowing this much about a dimeless internet personality and not being ashamed
>>19685061>I know it may not be apparent to newer CM Punk fans, but that’s him over there. The person in the foreground is Kana. She’s has a BJJ and Muay Thai influenced wrestling style but is known as much for her talent in the ring as she is for her outspokenness outside of it. She also draws in a lot of fanboys with her love for video games, and even works as a graphic designer on top of wrestling and owning her own salon. She does things her own way, even though it’s pissed off a lot of the establishment in Joshi Puroresu. If you check out her matches and read an interview with her, you'll start seeing CM Punk.>The wrestler in the background is Serena Deeb. A few days after graduating High School she packed up all her belongings and drove to OVW to train and fulfill her dream of joining the WWE. She did this without the sort of developmental deal that gets handed out to bikini models. She spent years training and working there and was noticed by a very talented male wrestler who had recently come to OVW with a deal from the “indies.” He immediately noticed how hard she worked and how talented she was, so he put in a good word for her with his old manager Dave Prazak, who runs the top female wrestling promotion in North America: SHIMMER Women Athletes.
Bros I don’t give a shit about Reddit or twitter dramaI don’t have either of those for a reason
>>19684889Kwab
>>19685067>Serena came into SHIMMER having to prove herself, as she was still quite young and inexperienced compared to wrestlers like MsChif, Cheerleader Melissa, and Sara Del Rey. As she attempted to climb the card she was unfortunately derailed by a car accident that forced her out of the tournament to crown SHIMMER’s first champion. In spite of the biggest opportunity of her career being taken away from her, she persevered until after a few years she was holding her own with those top names. She travelled the country and the world to improve her craft and, yes, even got cosmetic surgery so that she was more “Diva” esque until, and finall,y she was given a developmental deal by the WWE (leading her to move, again, to FCW). She spent another year there outworking and outwrestling the lot of former models WWE futilely attempted to turn into wrestlers before finally being called up. Again, it was the good word of that same former “indie” guy who helped get her on the main roster. He needed a woman for his stable, and someone dedicated enough to have her head shaved in front of a live crowd in order to play the part. Serena, without hesitation, jumped at the opportunity to live her dream to be in the WWE.>For these years of dedication, hard work, the WWE repaid her (and all the fans who want to see real women’s wrestlers) by putting her in just one televised match for a few moments against Kelly Kelly. Shortly after, when the writers got bored with her faction, she was fired by this company she had dedicated her entire adult life to working and performing for.
>>19685074>Unlike a lot of other women, Serena did not let this become the end of her career; instead it was truly the beginning. Since then she’s worked for nearly every wrestling promotion worth a mention, including Ring of Honor where she had a show stealing match on their Wrestlemania weekend Pay Per Views. She also fulfilled one of her other dreams: wrestling in Japan. She debuted for Tajiri’s SMASH promotion early this year and has since been brought back again where she faced the top heel in the company, Kana in a semi-main event singles match in the legendary Korakuen Hall. >I got to see Serena just this past weekend when after having two matches nearing the 20 minute mark on Saturday in New Jersey, she flew out Sunday morning to San Antonio to put on yet another 20 minute epic. She gave a running spear on the apron leading both her and her opponent, Amanda Fox, to crash to the floor. Less than an hour later she was smiling, talking with, and greeting every fan who came up to her (whilst wearing a headband to cover some of the battle scars from the weekend).>That’s the sort of thing she’s been doing every weekend since being released by the WWE, busting her ass to always put on the best performance for fans, no matter where and no matter what. She’s never let the bullshit she’s had to deal with get her down, not even for a second. She’s driven and passionate and unfuckingstoppable. So, as I’m sure is clear by now, the guy who helped Serena, pictured on the right, is CM Punk.
>>19685082>Oh, and the logo on the left is CM Punk as well. Before making is transition to joining the WWE, Punk look to change up his style to something more soap opera friendly. His finishing move use to be a pedigree from the top rope (The Pepsi Plunge). That wouldn’t work so he “borrowed” a move from KENTA, the Jr. Ace of NOAH, called the “Go-2-Sleep.” He also took that slap-slap-backhand-high kick combo from KENTA (while taking the anaconda vice from New Japan’s Tenzan). You know why CM Punk wears green this time every year? It's to honor NOAH founder Misawa, who tragically died in the ring two years ago this month. The logo has been CM Punk for quite a while.>We always have and always will promote people you don't know yet. The world of wrestling is so big and CM punk has been one of the biggest proponents of showing that. Even early on in WWE, when they were doing that horrific "Who killed Vince?" angle, CM Punk conducted his FBI "interview" wearing a Sara Del Rey T-shirt, getting "Death Rey" promoted on WWE.com. He's always using whatever platform he has to get the word out on people in wrestling who aren't making millions already. That's what CM Punk does, and that's what we do. That's why the pictures are CM Punk, but not CM Punk.>That’s the message to all the well meaning, honest users here.
I met him once in 2013, aka "the normal days" before everyone went nuts with politics, completely by accident. I just knew he was another wrestling fan. I always pictured JohnHyperion to be a nerdy White guy with glasses.
>>19685089>To the anonymous troll: if this Reddit was around in 2003 you’d be the guy bitching about us, “promoting skinny indy wrestler with a stupid Pepsi tattoo that no one has heard of” instead of having a picture of The Rock after he cut some “badass” promo on Stone Cold. I’ve been a fan of, and supporting, CM Punk for longer than some have been watching wrestling at all. And as anyone who has followed Punk’s career knows the last thing he’d ever want is for people to get together and worship him, especially at the expense of promoting wrestlers who haven’t been lucky enough (his words) to make it as big as him. Your comment captures an attitude that Punk is entirely disgusted by, so I’m not sure how you or anyone who upvoted it consider yourselves a CM Punk fan. Hell, you can’t even recognize his picture.>TL;DR>The picture on the right is Serena Deeb, someone Punk has supported and he'd much rather it be her picture there than his. Look Serena up, she's awesome, as is Kana, as is NOAH (where Punk got a lot of his moves from). Glad people finally asked about it.

Weird disillusioned antisocial people are drawn to wrestling and maoism (MLM) huh.
Leslie got a whole article about how crazy he was.https://unherd.com/2025/11/the-last-of-the-covidians/
>>19685901does unherd still have sandbrook writing for them?
>>19685924Idk who that is
Leslie was so weird.Was the perfect stereotypical IWC nerd to be an AEW fanboy, but turned on them once Punk got fired. Then he basically became a Cornette guy (But WWE was still evil btw).
>>19685881This, why are there threads on people not even remotely related to the business except some opinion piece no one asked for
I remember hearing he knew Kris Wolf before she wrestled because they were both English teachers in Japan.
>>19684889He was a giant asshole who waifu'd Kana so hard that he would literally stalk people across different sites just argue with them if they criticized her. I remember he once literally signed up for a forum I was on just to throw a tantrum about me because I said Kana was an unsafe shitter, which she was, this is when she was throwing shoot buzzsaw kicks at the heads of her opponents.Basically at the time there were a few different types of joshi fans. There were the workrate smarks who wanted everything to be like AJW circa 1993, the dykes who liked watching dykes, the gooners who only liked the pretty wrestlers, and then the random people who ust liked it as its own thing. Leslie, along with guys like Kevin Wilson, were 100% in the gooner camp and you could tell because of who all their favorites were: Kana, Ayumi Kurihara, Manami Toyota, Stardom in general, etc.As lulzy as he is, I think that ProWresBlog guy could probably tell you about the joshi fandom of the time because I think he was around it too. Although I think he might have been more a DVDVR guy and not a Joshifans guy.Fun fact, and I hate to post a Reddit link but he's also literally responsible for r/SquaredCircle existing because he ran the main pro wrestling subreddit but was such an unbearable asshole and would ban people for arguing with him and shit that SquaredCircle was made to have a wrestling subreddit where people didn't have to deal with him.https://old.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/o9lr1l/happy_10th_birthday_rsquaredcircle_10year/
>>19685960>Shit talks Hulk Hogan like most black socialists on X>kills himself four months later for being a fat fuckAnother W for Hogantranny?
I liked how he had a one man attempt to cancel Will Ospreay because Ospreay apparently did a Benoit tribute spot at Forbidden Door.
>>19684889>He ran his own joshi dirtsheetOh. I figured he was famous in the joshi fandom for another reason.
>>19685960See, I know indie and puro guys who do both hate WWE and WCW (that’s nothing new, there was smarks who hated both WCW and WWF in the 90’s).But Leslie was weird where he was repeating Cornette and Vincel talking points while also still calling WWE evil.
>>19684975>>19684998Why are you literally stealing old posts I made you fucking faggot?
>>19686027Like there’s snowboiiii on Twitter, who doesn’t like AEW or WWE (and even NJPW). And he still shits on Cornette guys and WWE fanboys all the time.
>>19686039Snowboiiii makes fun of AEW conspiratards all the time.
>>19686013>Ricky Starks is roughly 10 times better then Will OspreayAnd where are they both now?
