Best of Continental Wrestling Volume 2 {DVD Review}

Reviewed By Jason Lockard

I remember the wrestling boom of the '90s. Whether it was World Wrestling Federation, World Championship Wrestling or Extreme Championship Wrestling, It seemed everyone was watching!

Then after the Monday Night Wars it seemed people's desire for wrestling died with the death of WCW and ECW. That is until now! We are entering a mini wrestling boom. And JADAT Sports is releasing 5 volumes of The Best of Continental Wrestling. We reviewed Volume 1 here. But now it's time to look at what is included in Volume 2 of The Best of Continental Wrestling.

* Dr. Tom Prichard vs. King Roy Lee Welch

* US Junior Title Match
Tim Horner (C) vs. Ken Timbs

* Al Scott and Jim Barnett vs. The HeadHunters with Kevin Sullivans 

* Nick Patrick vs. Bill Ash

* US Junior Title Match
Scott Armstrong (C) vs. Larry Hamilton

* Jerry Stubbs vs. Frank Lancaster

* Gordon Solie interviews Kevin Sullivan, Jerry Stubbs with The Headhunters

* Kevin Sullivan vs. Tim Horner

* Southern Street Fight
Mr. Olympia vs. Dirty White Boy

* Gordon Solie Interviews Kevin Sullivan with The Headhunters

* Exotic Adrian Street vs. Wendell Cooley

* Final of the Continental TV Title Tournament
Roy Lee Welch vs. Roberto Soto vs. Robert Fuller

* TV Title Match
Robert Fuller vs. Brad Armstrong

* Gordon Solie interviews Tommy and Johnny Rich featuring footage of Rich's tag title win.

* Dutch Mantell Interviewed

* Dutch Mantell vs. The Bullett

* Dutch Mantell's farewell promo

* Exclusive Ron Fuller Interview (Part 2).

This Volume is over 20 minutes longer from Volume 1. Very cool! And we get to hear the iconic voice of wrestling in the 80s Gordon Solie. On this over 2 hour DVD, as was with Volume 1. Some of these matches are started already in progress or are just footage added into the interview segments, which is a bit of a bummer.

But in these Volumes, Jadat Sports tries to piece together matches that follow a storyline. Which as we all know is what wrestling is about telling a story!

Now the audio and video of each match and segment vary. Some are more clear than others, but I would call none of them unwatchable. The Interview with Ron Fuller is part 2 of 5 which will be spread out over the 5 volumes. Which will make this a must add to any wrestling fan's collection.

So if your a classic wrestling fan, or want to witness some of the greats of yesteryear. The best of Continental Wrestling Volume 1 & 2 is a good place to start!
