Funny that UFC and WWE are part of the same brand. Wouldn't surprise me if some of the UFC folks are leaning on WWE script writers on how to position rivalries on camera and giving pointers on creating heat.
Someone mentioned earlier that it is 'white trash'. I haven't watched it in years, and I did watch it recently. It's sort of reminiscent of GSP-era UFC, but seems like with more production values and ######bags. It is definitely a hillbilly version of what I remember.
I even watched the bare-knuckle league on TV a few weeks ago. That was more entertaining and with better sportsmanship than whatever the UFC is doing now.
Maybe I'm old, but I miss the days of younger UFC, PRIDE, Strikeforce and DREAM.
