WEC

Monday, June 8th, 2009

Just wanted to drop a line as an addendum to the Extreme Rules rant and say that the show I chose to watch instead last night was the WEC show on TSN2 and it completely blew away the WWE PPV.  I’d call it the best MMA show I’ve seen since the UFC with Lesnar v. Couture, in fact.  Jose Aldo’s running knee will be haunting my nightmares now, and Brown v. Faber was a major star-making fight for both guys.  If Faber was bigger, he could be a major pro wrestling star because he’s got personality and the looks.  Anyway, just great fights up and down the card and a no-nonsense job of producing it for TV by WEC as well.  If EliteXC could have produced this kind of quality show, they might not have disappeared so fast.
