“I’ve said it before in other industries,” Champion said. “If the shoe fits, steal it. The UFC has figured out ‘I’ve gotta have a way for these guys to start getting an audience following’ in order to take them into a pay per view environment.”
The premise of the untitled show as Champion tells it:
“It’s a concept of you roll into town, some kid’s been picked on all his life, and somebody picked on him. So let’s put the guy who picked on him in the ring with someone who knows how to fight, see how he enjoys that.”[/quote]

What’s the matter, you don’t like watching train wrecks in slow motion?
So let me get this right…you’re gonna have a show where a bunch of angry man-boys who have been training for 6 months fight the guy that used to give them wedgies in gym class who is now overweight, has 3 kids, and sells insurance?
