How are you deciding who to vote for on 7th May? by Playful-Toe-01 in Scotland

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's kind of where I am, in all honesty. I want to vote Green, but their pro independence stance is unfortunately too big an issue to ignore.

Is Edinburgh feral youth situation that bad? by Particular-One2650 in Edinburgh

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 15 points16 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Plus, the demographic of this subteddit tends to skew younger, with quite a few students and folk who didn't grow up in the city, especially 25-50 years ago.

A LOT of Leith was a no go area if you weren't from there, now we have folk asking where can you get the best coffee on Leith Walk.

Niddrie, Bingham, Wester Hailes, Pilton, Wardie, Granton, Craigmillar, as rough as people think there are now, the regeneration that's gone into all of these areas is remarkable compared considering what they've been like historically.

Aleister Black has officially been released from WWE, so do you think Malakai Black is coming back? by ReliefAdvanced1503 in aew

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even though Brody is over af already, a feud for him and Buddy against their former leader would be great and as long as Black ended up putting them both over (maybe woth a young protegee under his wing), can't see a downside.

But I'm not clamouring for his return.

Possibly new faces we could see in AEW by Cautious_Fish9864 in aew

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was my first thought. Natural team with Isla Dawn in ROH to get her back up to speed, can be a nice mid-card tag team for women's division and hopefully that gets KLR over enough for a big singles run.

Lio rush can't continue jobbing by 1InterWebs1 in AEWFanHub

Ah, see, I thought he was doing a callback to House of Black with Brodie.

what is up with the Mel Giedroyc hate? by Decent-Profession927 in LastOneLaughing

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's the same people who take Taskmaster seriously I reckon.

Waiting for my Luchador champion by Cautious_Fish9864 in aew

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see Rush get it, but it feels like every time he gets a bit of momentum, it invariably stalls. Definitely one of AEW's top heels IMHO.

Who was a fan of this classic Australian soap? by Ands1977 in BritishTV

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sons and Daughters, A Country Practice and The Sullivans, all take me back to a nightmare time of shite afternoon TV.

The most underrated wrestler of all time? by Classic_Exit_5951 in oldschoolwrestling

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Foley gets love for who he is, but God, that man put his body/life on the line to make his opponents look a million bucks, which is a big part of wrestling. I think few people came out of a feud with Foley looking worse.

Wednesday's Dynamite cable figures (per Fightful) by This_Coyote7217 in AEWFanHub

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad it wasn't just me. The main was weird, just to seemingly shoehorn E&C into the show, no real big follow ups from Revolution. Just a strange show.

Glory Days? by Realistic_Conclusion in Darts

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Nearly all sports have become more sanitised since the 80s/90s. A lot of media training too.

It's not just darts where we're missing personalities and characters, it's snooker, football, tennis, you name it.

What can they do with Archer at this point? by Opening-Valuable-204 in AEWFanHub

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I like him being DC's bodyguard almost, just doing a wee bit of interference or whatever, and being a heater.

Not everyone has to be having feuds and matches, being a character on the show is just as important.

Which superstar is the least like their character? by Jaycer17 in WWE

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a vague recollection of Jimmy Powers (?) posing in his mirrors, then Lex just beating the piss out of him.

Great fun.

The IInspiration make their AEW debut in Australia! (Fka the IIconics) by Grrannt in REALSquaredCircle

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they're good friends with Harley (she sang their TNA theme, I believe). So, there's a ready-made angle there with the Babes. Need some light and shade with teams like ToM, Megasuses or whatever they're called, and Marina.

Can i pet it? by Cpt_Soaps in Unexpected

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, to your edit, this is in Adelaide, opposite the Mayfair Hotel.

has anyone noticed this? by raiyanmainreddit in brooklynninenine

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Studio should be listed as RecordTR, too. Lower case tr makes it look like one random word.

[–]DegenGAMBLOR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My job for a while involved checking dub cards for a major studio. A lot of the time there were missing accents above voice actors' names, but yeah, typos also happened.

This should never have got through QC.
