(BUSTER) Best of Continental #4

This starts with Solie announcing the dream match would be Street vs. Austin Idol which didn't take place before Golden came out whining about the Bullet and their loser leaves town match that night. (11/4/85)

 

Then we get clips of Bullet injuring Robert Fuller and a promo by Robert from his jacuzzi. (11/4/85)

 

Elimination Match for the Southeastern Tag Titles: The Nightmares (Danny Davis & Ken Wayne) © vs. "Wildfire" Tommy Rich & Johnny "Crash" Rich (11/4/85)

 

This is different than their previous wars as they work this like a regular southern tag but at a great pace and everyone bouncing around the ring. Wayne & Johnny Rich would get eliminated quickly and Tommy would get an O'Connor Roll immediately on Davis to win the titles. This was so fun but way way short especially compared to their wars. No nomination but extra material.

 

Rich's cut a celebratory promo afterwards with Johnny holding a chicken suit saying that the Nightmares could get a rematch if one of them wore a chicken suit which pissed them off but they accepted.

 

Southeastern Heavyweight Title: "Exotic" Adrian Street © vs. Norvell Austin (11/4/85)

 

Miss Linda was barred from ringside here and Street is pissed about that. Norvell comes out blazing early taking it to Street inside and outside the ring with Norvell slamming Street on the ringside table. Norvell chokes Street in the ropes until Miss Linda comes out dressed up in a tracksuit wearing a doorag and punches Austin allowing Street to roll him up for the win. Cool angle at the end but this was basically a squash until then.

 

Next we get a taped promo from Lady Maxine in CWF and she is coming in to help Norvell Austin take care of Adrian Street & Miss Linda.

 

Then we get promos from Norvell & Street.

 

Continental TV Title Tournament: Roberto Soto vs. Larry Clarke (11/4/85)

 

Soto wins fairly easily after Clarke botches Soto's headscissors attempt so Soto just kills him with a dropkick.

 

Next we get a promos by Roy Lee Welch & Ken Timbs.

 

Lights Out Loser Leaves Town Match: The Bullet (Brad Armstrong) vs. Jimmy Golden (11/4/85)

 

This is a war at the bell as Bullet can't get his satin jacket off with Golden working him over like an animal. Bullet comes back firing some awesome punches before Golden hits the ref with a clothesline by mistake. Bullet locks on a sleeper which brings out the Flame who uses a loaded mask to KO Bullet. As this happens the REAL BULLET shows up and puts Golden in a figure-four while the real Bullet locks on a sleeper on the Flame. Golden submits and must leave town. This was a FANTASTIC angle and a slam dunk extra.

 

Then we get promos by The Bullets and Flame afterwards.

 

The next show starts with Flame & Robert Fuller vowing revenge on The Bullet for sending Golden packing last week. (11/11/85)

 

Next we get clips of Street injuring Austin Idol.

 

Then we get another taped Lady Maxine promo.

 

This is followed by promos from Bullet, Brad, Soto, Welch, Flame, & Robert.

 

Continental TV Title Tournament - Finals: Robert Fuller vs. Roberto Soto vs. Roy Lee Welch (11/11/85)

 

The rules are the first man to win twice is the champion. Soto & Welch start it off first and work this as a total scientific match with tempers flaring at the end of course. Soto would win after a double collision and Fuller jumps in immediately to get a pin on a schoolboy. Fuller then uses his loaded boot for the first time to KO Welch to win the title. Fun segment.

 

Next we get promos by the Rich's & Nightmares.

 

Mask vs. Mask: The Bullet vs. The Flame (11/11/85)

 

Flame does the introductions here which is awesome. Bullet is back out wearing his black satin jacket and white mask like last week. Bullet jumps Flame on the floor and they are brawl through the aisle into the darkness. You can't see what is going on here for a bit but finally they get some light over there as another fake Bullet jumped out of the stands. Flame gets taken back to the ring and loads up his mask but the fake Bullet threw him head first into the corner knocking the Flame out. Fuller runs out with his loaded boot and takes down the Bullet who is unmasked as Brad Armstrong. Brad gets beaten up as Soto runs out to make the save and he is throwing bombs here until Boomer H. Lynch makes his return. Soto gets destroyed until the real Bullet makes the save with a steel chair. Another wild awesome angle and a slam dunk extra.

 

Fuller & Golden come out for this show demanding a cage match against Bullet & Brad. (10/21/85)

 

Loser Leaves Town Match for the US Jr. Heavyweight Title: Roy Lee Welch © vs. "Professor" Bill Ash (10/21/85)

 

Very fun southern style slugfest with both guys just pounding each other with punches, kicks, & elbows. These were two of the more unsung guys in this territory and this is their time to shine and they are up to the task. The finish was cool as well as Welch reversed a bodyslam into the corner into a vertical suplex to win. Nothing fancy here just action and this is worthy of a low-end pick.

 

Next we get a promo for a show in Pensacola where Brad almost calls Bullet "dad" and catches himself which brought out smiles from everyone.

 

Roberto Soto vs. Bob Johnson (10/21/85)

 

Easy win for Roberto and a promo to follow about Flame trying to injure him with clips of the match from last week.

 

Then we get promos by Norvell, Street, & Fuller.

 

Continental TV Title Tournament: "Exotic" Adrian Street vs. Jimmy Backlund (10/21/85)

 

Street jumping in Jimmy's arms then kissing him on the mouth was an awesome way to start the match. Jimmy shows some spunk here but Street is too dominant.

 

Next we get promos by Bullet & Brad who have accepted the Studs challenge for a cage match and they show how Bob Armstrong & Ron Fuller were injured in a cage match.

 

Then we get promos by the Rich's.
