TTFC:A Wednesday Night Brawl 3 PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ultimate Warrior (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Warrior has chosen Ultimate Warrior Entrance as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Ultimate Warrior was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
