March 19, 201411 yr comment_5595107 Looking forward to listening to this...but..ahead of my listening.. That angle with Pritchard and the White Boy is PHENOMINAL in its realism and craziness...the payoff at the end is great and Solie's reactions are a HUGE part of it at the end... Its a shame a lot of their matches post this arent around in full....I would have loved to see the payoff....anyone else know if they are ther?e?
March 25, 201411 yr comment_5595793 We kill it on this show. Continental was a blast and we absorb it and then give back podcast wonderfulness.
March 25, 201411 yr comment_5595823 All these podcasts and animated gifs and photos on these boards and we still can't get that 80's set that was going to contain Continental footage. COME ON PLEASE

July 4, 201411 yr comment_5610962 I really appreciate Titans TV for making footage available before hand. Especially since this is my first experience with Continental. DWB is a big favorite of mine though and familiar with some of the other guys. Martin needs to go watch more SMW. DWB went pretty even with Roberts on promos in 94. I don't love heavy punching matches as much as Pete but I do like that these guys make their punches look so convincing. And the promos are top notch. I noticed Flair did a backward flop bump against the Bullet. Don't remember seeing that one before. Very quick match. Solie's call on finished seemed to be on a five second delay. I found Solie to be very entertaining here overall. Full arm drag and a twist sounds delicious. Also enjoyed guys doing their own commentary of matches they were in. The Fullers were great. DWB is great but yeah that was one of the weakest trying to stop a fight attempts ever. Yes, Dirty White Girl is pretty hot. She was missing her outfit there. Wait, so she legit went with Dundee later on? And yeah I love the Dirty White Boy song. I'll admit I was a bit uncomfortable at first with the angle with Pritchard and the whole domestic violence thing. Was getting where Martin was coming from on this one. Solie was something here with his total disregard for DWG. We got a television show to run! The payoff is great though and the hanging spot was crazy. Fun show and anybody can watch the stuff they were talking about. Great to have Johnny along. Always nice to hear some Stu Hart. I hope Harley Race makes a comeback at some point. Also appreciate you guys giving some history of Continental for those of us who are not familiar with it. Great show again.
July 4, 201411 yr comment_5610991 I didn't know about the 3rd Headhunter in the cage angle before I just watched it. That was pretty awesome stuff and I'll have to check out what you guys thought about it on the show. Kevin Sullivan is really fun on commentary for it too.
July 11, 201411 yr comment_5612169 I can't believe I didn't comment on Kelly gooning it up at a Halloween party. It is nice to have a Titan's host who can take care of things.

July 11, 201411 yr comment_5612182 Well now you were probably hidden behind a glass wall but my comments were more directed towards a gentleman who lost an arm wrestling contest to a girl and got hit in the head in a stone throwing contest.
