Why Does dropkickd Say JavaScript Is Not Enabled?

dropkickd shows the "JavaScript is not enabled" message because the site is a JavaScript-dependent web app, not a static page. Its rating, review, and list-building features are rendered by scripts in your browser, so when JavaScript is blocked or fails to run, the site has nothing to display except that notice. To use dropkickd, enable JavaScript for the site (or for your browser generally) and reload the page.

What dropkickd actually is

dropkickd is a social platform for pro-wrestling fans. According to the site itself, you can rate, review, and compile lists of events and matches from promotions such as WWE and AEW. The site also states it is not affiliated with those companies.

That description matters for this problem: rating, reviewing, and list-building are interactive features. They need client-side code to accept your input and update the page, which is exactly what JavaScript provides.

Why the message appears instead of content

The page's own fallback text explains the situation: you need to enable JavaScript before using dropkickd. In practice, this message can appear for a few different reasons:

• JavaScript is turned off in your browser settings. Some users disable it for privacy, performance, or security reasons, globally or per-site.
• A browser extension is blocking scripts. Content blockers, privacy extensions, and script managers can prevent JavaScript from running on a site even when the browser setting is on.
• The page loaded before scripts could run. A failed or interrupted load can leave the fallback message on screen.
• A restricted environment. Some corporate networks, managed devices, or locked-down browser profiles disable scripting by policy.

The result is the same in every case: no ratings, reviews, or lists load, because none of that content exists without the scripts running.

How to fix it

1. Check your browser's JavaScript setting. In most browsers this lives under Settings → Privacy and security → Site settings → JavaScript. Make sure it is allowed, either globally or for dropkickd.com specifically.
2. Reload the page after changing the setting. The message is rendered at load time, so an already-open tab will not update on its own.
3. Disable script-blocking extensions for this site. If you use an ad blocker, privacy extension, or script manager, allow dropkickd.com and reload.
4. Try a private/incognito window or another browser. Extensions are usually disabled in private windows, so this quickly tells you whether an extension is the cause.
5. If you are on a managed device or network, the setting may be locked by policy. In that case, try a personal device or network.

Expected result: once JavaScript runs, the fallback message disappears and the platform's rating, review, and list features load normally.

Common snags

• The setting looks correct but the message persists. This usually points to an extension or a stale cached page rather than the browser setting. Hard-reload (Ctrl+Shift+R or Cmd+Shift+R) or test in a private window.
• It works in one browser but not another. Compare the two browsers' JavaScript settings and extension lists; the difference is almost always one of those.
• You cannot change the setting. On a work or school device, JavaScript may be disabled by administrator policy, and only your IT administrator can change it.
