Jack Swagger just signed to fight in Bellator

[Bonefan32]

Why is Jack Swagger fighting Kevin Owens?

 

[LastManStanding]

one of the funniest things about MMA is how they have their fighters show up like they are dressed for some prestigious job

like, what you wearing a suit for?

 

[Batter Up]

Surprised Bellator hasn't signed Punk yet. Freak show fights against jobbers and aging former pro wrestlers feels like the natural next stage of his MMA career.

anyone got a link?

they're currently 3 fights away from Swagger's fight so it could be within the next hour

Jack Swagger about to fight

anyone got a link?!!!

Swagger is a -900 favorite you gotta drop $900 to win $100

the wrestling fan / Game Stop manager he is fighting is a +500 underdog

 

[trick]

He beat the fat guy in 2 minutes with an arm triangle choke

 

[LastManStanding]

Swagger already choked the mark out

this will provide a great smiley from @3Rivers because fat dude was passed out like after the ref stopped it

 

[Berniewood Hogan]

swagger is the first pro wrestler in a LONG time to win a legit sanctioned shoot fight while holding a rassling title (the lucha underground championship)

which makes Lucha Underground the current GOAT wrestling promotion, fukk WWF, fukk ROH, fukk 'em all!

they saying he "refused" to release the submission looks like he held on a couple of seconds too long, but certainly didn't "refuse"either way he heeled it up tonight and got the MMA die hard fans mad as hell

Swagger really turned heel in MMA after choking out a mark.

 

[Dylmatic]

I always liked Swagger, he was good in the ring. I hope he can get another AEW or WWE run after this MMA shyt.

at him getting more heat last night than when he was WHC tho.

 

[Norrin Radd]

Make em mad, Jack

a side choke isn’t as “dangerous” as it looked, it’s essentially a blood choke, as soon as he let go the danger was over. It just looks bad visually but they don’t hurt much, you wake up like wtf happened?

Royce Gracie used to hang onto holds after he let go of Ken Shamrock when he tapped on the opposite side of the ref and Ken was like I didn’t tap bro even tho the replay showed he clearly did.


It’s not like he was cranking on an arm bar/heel hook


It was fun seeing mma twitter get so angry about it, Hager might have gotten himself a marquee match/good pay day with that “heel” turn
