Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chet Rollins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Wangler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rollins kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is God's Gonna Cut You Down- Johnny Cash. Wangler has chosen Tha Sinn Air Ais as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
