Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Will Rook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wesley Templar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rook's entrance music is Shinedown-Simple Man. A fine choice. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
