Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Russel Ebert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adam West (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ebert comes to the cage accompanied by Mean Street - Van Halen. West comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Batman TV Show Theme Song kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Russel Ebert has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Russel Ebert seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
