The finale to HONOR FC's incredibly successful Wednesday Warfare series had a fitting end in front of a sold out Palmtree in beautiful Las Vegas. This event was one of the highest rated in the history of the series and was a fitting end to a series of fights.

Frank "Bruiser" Brody (6-4-1) vs Darc "The Wild One" Von Hayek (4-4)

This fight was an absolute stand up war between two of the better prospects in the welterweight division. Brody was able to use his quick feet to avoid clinching with the tough MT practitioner Von Hayek and out strike him on his way to a devastating KO finish.

Result: Frank Brody KO Roud 1

Dom "Dueces Wild" Danky (24-15-1) vs Jeffrey Sarpong (10-3-1)

Both of these guys are stand up fighters through and through and have established themselves as two of the better fighters in the middleweight division. Danky was able to put away the incredibly tough Sarpong with vicious elbow strikes while pressed up against the cage; a surprising victory given that Sarpong was dominating until Danky was able to clinch.

Result: Danky TKO Round 1

Dack Fayden (15-8) vs Alex "Almighty" Irwin (7-6)

This was the second fight between these two tough welterweights. Irwin had a huge stand up advantage in this fight and was looking every bit the favorite as Fayden was riding a three fight losing streak; two which came via strikes. However Fayden was able to weather the first round storm of Irwin, bring the fight to the ground and finish this via armbar in the second giving him a 2-0 advantage over the hard hitting Irwin.

Result: Fayden Sub Round 2

Bruce "Mr.Jiu jitsu" Gracie (24-18) vs Sub Norris (24-18)

This fight was every grappling fans dream as these two black belts spent nearly a round a half demonstrating some of the best BJJ the promotion has ever seen. After a truly fascinating ground battle Bruce Gracie was able to finish with a great armbar.

Result: Gracie Sub Round 2

Rock "Taijutsu" Lee (10-4) vs "Veliki" Ljuti Hrcak (17-5)

Hrcak took a surprising route here as he went for nothing but takedowns and avoided his usual gameplan of swinging for the fences. For Lee it was business as usual as he used big shots to finish his opponent early.

Result: Lee TKO Round 1

"Go" Phukyorselvf Uzannavabizch (30-12-1) vs Augustus "DEADSHOT" Belmont (27-14)

These two light heavyweights came out of the gates fist flying and launched everything the had at one another. Fortunately for "GO" he was able to land a few well timed shots and drop the ridiculously tough Belmont.

Result: TKO Uzannavabich

Vinnie "Danger Zone" Jones (12-4) vs Super Hans (27-11)

This what a bit of a shocker as Super Hans was able to take the 155lb belt from Vinnie Jones with a dominant performance. Even more surprising is how well Hans did on the ground against the former champ who is well known for his wrestling. Hans was able to bring Jones to the ground and end this gritty fight in the fourth with some serious ground and pound.

Result: Hans TKO Round 4

This was an exciting conclusion the WW series and I think I speak for everyone when I say that I can not wait to see what Mr. Monk and HONOR FC have in store for us next.
