Well.. I mean.. UFC PPVs are on Saturday, WWE on Sunday.. so yea, pretty gentlemanly of them to come to terms on such a pressing issue lol

lol I don't watch UFC so I wouldn't know. I said "supposedly' for a reason, because it's what I saw someone say elsewhere in passing.

Fun idea, terrible rules and awful execution. It was dreadful.

Cornette explained in a podcast once why he thought the idea was shit and how he tried to talk the creative team and Vince out of it but they didn't listen. I agree with everything he stated. Nobody wants to see boxing on a wrestling show, unless it's just a one time match. Not all wrestling fans are boxing fans, and those that are want to see wrestling or something related to it (promos, segments, etc.) when they tune into a show like Raw, they don't want to see wrestlers who aren't professional boxers try to pretend they are.

The other issue was that even if it was real (and it was), since everyone knows wrestling is fixed, people will just assume that the BFA tournament was fixed as well and thus have no interest in trying to see WWF pass off incorporated parts of a real sport as 'real' on an otherwise predetermined show.

My problem was the stupid rules and scoring. If they would have just done real amateur boxing and had more interesting contestants it wouldn't have been such a terrible flop.

It should be a good ol fashioned hardcore match. Want HHH with his sledgehammer. Saying that as matches go im not hugely fired up.
