Colour me interested in you guys having a Top 20 ep as well.

Is there ever going to be new eps of The Dangerous Alliance?

While these two clips are from 1984, I was hoping the Titans boys could jump in the Quantum Leaping Lanny and go forward in time to do a live watch. First Mean Gene tours the home neighbourhood of Adrian Adonis, with Dick Murdoch turning up halfway through. Then, Adonis visits Murdochs ranch. Both segments are pure wrestling gold. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QE_BB3KZUE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47WR2ZeO7ec[media][/media]

As a fan from Australia since 1980, I grew up on the WWF but would read every Apter mag cover to cover, no matter which promotion the story was on. So that included Continental. This podcast was outstanding, I learned about so many matches, angles, feuds, characters. Very much looking forward to Part 2. Please keep giving coverage to the territory legends. Much appreciated to both Kris and Beau for the time and effort put into such an exhaustive look at Year One of Continental.

Very much enjoyed Chad's reasoning on the Japanese and Mexican workers he included. For someone like myself who has only dipped into the promotions of those countries, some of his match recommendations make me more keen to seek them out. As for Parv, you said your fave company is All Japan. Could a future project, as a one off, or maybe a few shows, be an All Japan for dummies type show? Where we get a brief history of certain matches and feuds, so I know why these guys are fighting each other? I find it hard to be invested, when it is just This Guy vs That Guy.

Titans boys, on Daily Motion, look for a match featuring two of the Titans faves, Sgt Slaughter vs Greg Valentine from WWF 1984. I had never heard of it, hope it's a new one to you boys as well. Thank you any Titans product, to me, it's all quality and sustains me when my interest in current wrestling is shaky at best.

Been waiting for a new one, thanks guys. Interested in where the HHH challenge you are set, is going.

Trying to fit this 4 hour epic in before work this afternoon. Really enjoyed the first part. Parv and Chad, on Daily Motion, look for a guy named Buddy Watson and an AWA show called StarCage 85. I had never heard of this show, but looking at the line up, I think it needs the Big Boys treatment. He also has AWA Super Sunday. http://www.dailymotion.com/playlists/user/RedneckSpiritHunter/1

I agree re being a train wreck. But I kinda expected that. I wasn't waiting for analytical insights, I was wanting nincompoopery. And I got it. Fun stuff. I would also like to hear another ep like this. I am sure if you guys throw things around enough, you'll come up with a concept. The fans are demanding it. Don't be WWE, give us what we want.

As much as I love 80s tag wrestling, I just can't get excited about that line up. I can put up with some crap and mid level stuff, but nothing apart from the SF/Harts matches, really jumps out at me there. If you are after any matches for any point in 1988, I went through my collection and found these. Ones that I remember being good; Hogan and Bigelow/DiBiase and Andre 06\02 Hogan and Bigelow/DiBiase and Virgil 13/03 Rockers/Rougeaus 25/10 Rockers/Busters 17/12 Ones that may fill a show; Patera and Haynes/Race and Herc 18/01 Strike Force/Bolsheviks Feb Warrior and Muraco/Gang and Bass 25/04 Stallions and Houston/Bolsheviks and Akeem 29/11

I was an Adrian Adonis fan, enjoying his stuff right up to his passing. Challenge - book Adonis back to the WWF in 1988. Has he dropped weight? Is he still Adorable? Any chance of a run as a face, how would it happen and play out as time goes on? Who would he feud against?

Johnny Valiant managing Demolition. Valiant is a loud New Yorker, yet he's with the new monster, kickass heels. Grand Wizard and Sgt. Slaughter. There is Wiz in his sparkling suit and turban, there is Sarge in his former Marine get up. Heyman with Curtis Axel. Not even Heyman could make this chump look credible.

I think this feud worked cause Martel and Santana invest themselves in the new team right away. And back then, faces were faces, and fans loved them for it. The Malenko/Scotty match that Marty mentioned is a corker.

Outstanding work. I can see myself visiting often to track down shows I've missed.

I usually enjoy the reaction shows as everyone gets a say. But the last part, where Johnny was trying to get across his liking of the Sheamus MITB cash in, only to be shot down at every turn with comments along the line of Ýou're a fucking idiot' made me sour on listening to future reaction shows. I would have thought differing opinions would be welcome, so it sparks debate. It just became a total mess and not worth giving time to when there are so many other pods out there.
