PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hulk Hogan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pete Patterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Patterson's choice of entrance music: "I'm Too Sexy". Patterson has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
