PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Crazy Dog (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rock Machine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dog's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Beat It. Machine is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Hell Yeah. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
