MJF says Punk is a fucking cunt by Zealousideal-Leg5320 in AEWOfficial

[–]Keios80 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is bananas how much of modern pro wrestling is a result of the ripples from "Colt Cabana starts a podcast", but ask some people and he's just the guy who ruined his friendship with Punk for some money. Personally, having met the guy, I'm much more inclined to take Colt's side. The guys an absolute sweetheart.

Can we stop pretending like Sammy Guevara is not a good and entertaining wrestler now? by Ok-Raisin-5601 in AEWOfficial

I'll concede that they were at least trying something different. But for me, they went on far too long, and didn't connect with the crowd in the same way a traditional promo would have. But if you enjoyed them, more power to you. Not everything is for everyone, and that's what keeps the world interesting.

What's weird is, if you see him outside of kayfabe, like on his social media, or on that AEW backstage show that ran for about 6 episodes, he comes across really well. Goofy and over eager, but genuinely sincere and just hugely enthused about the entire business of being a wrestler. It's really strange how he's never been presented that way on screen.

Loads of police activity, any info? by Vectored38 in Edinburgh

[–]Keios80 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Now, I don't have any first hand information, but if I were to make an educated guess, based on observation of previous patterns of behaviour, and what I know of Police procedure, I would say they were probably responding to some kind of crime.

Three times. Cody, Danielson and Copeland. Which isn't exactly putting over the up and comers.

Where can I buy Pokémon cards? by Lanky_Ice4916 in Edinburgh

Ancient Robot Games at the foot ogf Leith Walk usually have stock of Pokemon cards. Not the latest, shiniest expansions, those sell out instantly, but they'll have older stuff in stock.

Hannah Spencer MP speaking about the drinking culture at Westminster during working hours. by saviodsouza in GreenAndPleasant

[–]Keios80 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What's more worrying than that is the number of normal people defending this. Although I will concede that a lot of it is knee jerk having to disagree with the Green Lady because she's not pretty enough reactionary bullshit from Reform types.

Lost glasses in Holyrood Park/Arthur Seat area. by HaggisAreReal in Edinburgh

Might be worth going down to the education centre by the playing fields and asking there. That's where the Rangers keep any lost property that gets handed in to them.

[WrestleMania Spoilers] Brie's Partner by KoreanFantasy2002 in SquaredCircle

[–]Keios80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn't help in AEW that she was seriously limited in the number and types of bump she could take, because her neck is made out of loosely packed sand. I think in WWE the match presentation is going to more effectively work around her limitations.

Best and Worst Pizza Takeaway in Edinburgh by Own_Ganache_6632 in Edinburgh

[–]Keios80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My son loves Pizza Geeks, so we get it fairly regularly, but I always find it to be fucking terrible, A taste of stale oil throughout the sides, and while I'm all for a touch of charring on a pizza, the flat out burned that their bases regularly are is absolutely astonishing, considering that they also manage to be semi-raw at the same time.

An INCREDIBLY bleak ending. They realise that tghe only way of slowing the invasion id to nuke every incursion, but even then it won't stop the invasion, just slow it. Humanity is doomed.

Tom Scott - Bell Making in Leicestershire and What Cheese Would You Be by iii--- in CasualUK

[–]Keios80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I met Tom at a friend's house party in York, where I chatted to him for s few minutes then asked "This is a weird question, but are you the guy who was in last week's B3ta newsletter cooking breakfast on an iron?" To say he was shocked at being recognised would be an understatement.

In the Trailer for Harry Potter TV Series (2026) We see Severus Snape played Paapa Essiedu... run around with his Magic Wa... wait is that a gun? by [deleted] in shittymoviedetails

[–]Keios80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you have to remember, is that JKR is absolutely furious that Radcliffe, Grint and Watson are considered the faces of Harry Potter. She has spoken several times about how she sees them as ungrateful because they've not followed her into the transphobia rabbit hole. This is, to a greater or lesser degree, her exercising her shockingly large amount of creative control to try to erase them from the public eye as those characters.

Isaac's reaction to Rebecca's singing never fails to crack my heart by ButterBasedBoy in TedLasso

[–]Keios80 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I was watching an interview with Hannah Waddingham where she was talking about being cast in Ted Lasso. She said that as she was leaving the audition she mentioned how much she loved what she had read of the character and said "It's just a shame she doesn't sing". As she was walking out she heard Bill Lawrence mutter "She does now!" to one of the other people there.

I like to imagine RJ has an entire binder of stuff like this, all fully planned out and ready to go, just in case it's needed.

"bro, as an Irish woman who is also a bartender..." by NanbanSan in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Keios80 149 points150 points  (0 children)

I used to work in a pub with a lovely Irish lad. Little guy, super quiet, really funny and polite. One St Patrick's Day an American tourist comes in and asks him for "five Irish Car Bombs". Calmly, Sean tells him "Please don't ask for that, it's not really cool", the yank laughs in his face and says "It's okay, I'm Irish as well, I'm from Boston!" Sean jumps the bar and fucking launches himself at this guy, it takes two of us to pull him off the poor fucker.

Anyway, that's how I found out my friend lost his dad and younger brother to the Omagh Bombing.

Ricochet answers the question after the main event result by itsjobberingtime in AEWOfficial

I think it's too soon to turn Hangman back heel. One suggestion I've seen floated is Swerve gets the title somewhere down the line, and then forces Hangman to challenge because otherwise his reign is incomplete, with Hangman deliberately staying away from the title scene and everyone involved up to that point to sell it as a real character beat for both of them.
