PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Michael Cole (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kendall Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cole kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Michael Cole's Entrance music. Thomas is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Blow The Whistle By Too Short. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
