I'm curious to hear more about the details of Paul & Eddie Gilbert leaving Continental for NWA in 1988. They had made Continental pretty hot then and all of a sudden they were gone.

I think Meltz mentioned the swing deal recently saying that it was a babyface spot and while he was with Heyman they told him to stop

Bo has really gotten over among the sports guy casual types I follow on Twitter.

Road Warriors in their prime were awesome to watch live

WWE isn't even the worst talking about social media anymore.....ESPN has taken that throne....all they do is talk about tweets

This was a great show because of the venom that was rightfully spewed and just think how much more pissed I would've been if I had dropped $60

I think Jericho wins but by DQ

Solie was definitely referencing the Midnight Rider title change

I got Amazon Prime and that one lump sum a year sucked this year because I was a little tight on funds....I'd MUCH rather pay a small sum every month.

What do you think the WFIA was back in the day....all smart fans that would go to conventions every year in different cities to shoot the shit. Dave went to all the early WFIA conventions and the smart fans of that era were like a secret society in a way as they had their own little newsletters competing against the Weston mags. Another thing that hasn't been brought up here I think is when you had outlaw groups such as the Poffo's in 1979 totally exposing the business by giving out secrets about the Memphis/Knoxville guys they were competing against on TV. Also Buddy Rose at the Cow Palace which has been brought up many times. Now on the JCP heel crowds.....Techwood Studios created that kinda environment with the Horsemen fans in suits and the Corny fans in suits and tennis rackets. Those crowds at times were as smart as ECW fans 10 years later....just watch how they treated Dusty in 1988. I know because I was there.

It is still going on....that was why we had the issues earlier which caused Loss to institute the new policy

They are getting all their ducks in a row it appears

I think the Gilbert era Continental is overrated actually....compare it to the promotion two years earlier and it isn't close IMO. I have a lot of non-internet wrestling fans who constantly wax poetic about the Attitude Era and Monday Night Wars in general wondering why wrestling now can't be as fun as it was back then.

I'm going a different route here... Most Overrated = Attitude Era WWF, ECW 1998-00, Ring of Honor 2005-current, Chikara (the entire time) Most Underrated = Continental Championship Wrestling, St. Louis Wrestling TV shows before the split, Mid 90's USWA, World Wrestling Council house show matches

Somebody has been watching the latter days of Continental

I actually have no problem with the match being cancelled because I think the match would've went to a shit finish anyway and Ambrose more than likely would've jobbed. They already jobbed him to Orton on TV and did a massive beatdown so making him job again would not be good.

I rewound it and the landing was horrible on his knee then the bump to the floor was no help. The finish looked totally audibled and killed the potential Ambrose run in

If Not Jameson Then Who?????

Chick Donovan Oh I forgot the Horsemen were faces then so....there was a young spunky face named Robbie V

It is interesting to note that I have seen WAY more people complaining about MLB.TV this year than ever......not a coincidence I think as they are being stretched way too thin right now.

Muhammad Hassan is a guy that never gets talked about but could've been a major star if he had stayed around.

This video is like the WAR 6 man of Instagram videos: http://t.co/gaSwDc0uDh

I think that is ML Curly who you are talking about and he went to prison for molesting kids.

If it wasn't Lesnar then Big Dave had all the forces behind him to be the ace

This poll is fantastic for so many reasons
