I was like...that's like 'What do you mean? Call Triple
H? What do you mean?' He's like 'Nah, just call him...I'm
giving you his number. I want you to call him.' And
I was like 'Oh my god.' Well now I can't [not call
him]...So now I had to...So I sent him [Triple H]
a text. He calls me and is like 'Is this really Killer
Kross?' Cause like, I don't know, it could be a crank
caller or somebody gets his number. So we talk, and
a few months later, I was in 'NXT,' and that's kind

Combat
Sports via Grok
Combat
sports are competitive physical activities involving
one-on-one combat where the objective is to score
more points, submit, disable, or defeat an opponent
through regulated techniques. These sports have a
rich history, tracing back to various ancient civilizations
and have evolved into diverse forms practiced worldwide:
Boxing:
A sport where competitors use their fists to throw
punches within a designated ring, aiming to outscore
or knock out their opponent. It's one of the oldest
combat sports, with roots in ancient cultures like
Egypt and Greece, and became an Olympic sport in 1904.
Mixed
Martial Arts (MMA): Often seen in promotions like
the UFC, MMA combines techniques from numerous martial
arts including wrestling, boxing, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
It gained significant recognition in the 1990s and
is known for its no-holds-barred approach within a
regulated environment.
Brazilian
Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ): Developed by the Gracie family in
Brazil, BJJ focuses on ground fighting and submission
holds. It became popular through MMA and is now practiced
globally for both sport and self-defense.
Muay
Thai: Known as "The Art of Eight Limbs,"
this Thai martial art uses punches, kicks, elbows,
and knee strikes, making it uniquely comprehensive
in terms of striking techniques.
Wrestling:
With styles like freestyle and Greco-Roman, wrestling
involves grappling techniques to pin or throw an opponent.
It's one of the oldest sports, with historical ties
to ancient Greece, and is a mainstay in the Olympics.
Judo:
A Japanese martial art emphasizing throws and submission
holds, judo has been an Olympic sport since 1964,
showcasing its global impact on combat sports.
Kickboxing:
A hybrid sport that incorporates elements from boxing,
karate, and other martial arts, focusing on both punches
and kicks. It's popular in both professional and amateur
circuits.
Combat
sports also serve various benefits beyond competition,
including physical fitness, mental toughness, and
self-defense skills. They are regulated by organizations
to ensure safety, with rules varying by sport and
sometimes by region. In Australia, for instance, combat
sports are overseen by bodies like the Combat Sports
Authority of NSW, ensuring participants are registered
and events are permitted.
These
sports are not only about physical confrontation but
also promote discipline, respect, and sportsmanship
among participants. They have a cultural significance,
often tied to national heritage, and continue to evolve
with new techniques, safety measures, and competitive
formats. (Grok)

Professional
Wrestling Overview: Professional wrestling is a form
of athletic theater that combines mock combat with
drama, where the premise is that performers are competitive
wrestlers. It's distinguished by its scripted outcomes
and emphasis on entertainment over genuine competition.
The staged nature of matches is an open secret, maintained
through a practice known as "kayfabe," where
both wrestlers and spectators pretend that the performances
are legitimate competitions. Wrestlers perform as
characters with distinctive gimmicks, including unique
attire, stage names, and entrance themes.
Current
Landscape: As of early January 2025, the wrestling
landscape in Australia includes notable promotions
like Pro Wrestling Australia (PWA) in Sydney, which
focuses on providing both adult-themed and family-friendly
shows. United Pro Wrestling (UPW) is another key player,
particularly in Queensland, known for its quality
events and character development. Melbourne City Wrestling
(MCW) has been active with events like their anniversary
celebration planned for March 15, 2025.
Global
Influence: Wrestling has achieved mainstream success
worldwide, influencing popular culture with its terminology
and concepts. It's performed across various promotions
globally, with unique styles in countries like the
U.S., Mexico, Japan, and Europe. The largest promotions
continue to be WWE and AEW, with significant cultural
impact through television, music, film, and video
games.
Community
and Culture: Professional wrestling has developed
its own culture, including a vernacular specific to
the industry. Fans engage through live events, online
discussions, and fan-created content, showing the
community's dedication and passion for the sport-entertainment
hybrid.

always been super active and I pick up things pretty
fast."

wrestled professionally from 1937 to 1956 and launched
her own World Women's Wrestling Association after

the way up"
"There
was a period of time where I remember putting my hands
on my hips and I just felt solid, like there was just
more of me."
"Wrestling
is a lot about safety"
"To
take the bump, you spread out"
Deborah
Ann Woll, Francesca Eastwood, Marie Avgeropoulous,

ability to weave story and have it be structured but
improvised -- there's an essence there that is so

it's not punching each other all the time, but it
is really about affecting the other person"

Man: The WWE and WWE NXT remain on fire in what is
tipped to be a record breaking year for the world's
leading professional wrestling based promotion. As
we tipped off a year ago, TKO's brands including UFC,
need to keep a tab on ticket pricing as many households
have tightened their budgets to adjust to global economic
conditions. As a golden rule, the market will decide
how much the public will spend on live entertainment
and live sport. The Netflix factor can be expected
to see WWE trend even more than usual on Elon Musk

Five
New Fighters Join UFC Ranks
Based
on the information available up to September 5, 2024,
there hasn't been a specific, widely recognized report
or announcement directly titled "Five New Fighters
Join UFC Ranks" that would detail new UFC signees
in one go. However, through various sources and posts
on platforms like X, we can piece together some insights
into new or notable fighters who have either joined
the UFC or are making significant moves within the
organization:
Nassourdine
Imavov - While not a new signee, Imavov has been making
waves in the middleweight division, recently climbing
the ranks after notable victories. His progress might
be of interest if looking at fighters who are new
to the spotlight or making significant impacts in
the UFC.
Benoît
Saint Denis - Another fighter not new to the UFC but
has been moving up in the lightweight rankings, indicating
his rise within the organization's hierarchy.
Bruno
Silva vs. Ismail Naurdiev - This matchup was announced
for UFC 308, indicating both fighters are active within
the UFC, though not necessarily new to the roster.
Jorge
Masvidal - While not a new fighter, his potential
return to the UFC, as discussed on social platforms,
could be seen as a significant update for UFC fans,
given his past prominence.
Mikey
Musumeci - Although his event is with ONE Championship,
mentioning him indicates the kind of cross-promotional
interest that might also apply to UFC fighters, especially
in grappling or submission-focused bouts.
From
the information available:
Direct
New Signees: There's no consolidated list or announcement
directly from UFC or widely recognized MMA news outlets
specifically titled "Five New Fighters Join UFC
Ranks" that matches your query directly.
However,
fighters like those mentioned might be considered
"new" in terms of their rising prominence
or recent significant UFC activity.
General
Sentiment: From posts on X, there's a lot of discussion
around fighters' movements, match announcements, and
returns, but these are not explicitly framed as "new
fighters joining the UFC."
Instead,
they reflect the ongoing activity and interest in
fighters' careers within the UFC.
Implication:
If there were an event or announcement about five
new fighters, it might not have been widely publicized
or could be part of smaller announcements spread out,
which might explain why there's no single, clear-cut
source directly answering your query.
Given
this, if there were indeed an announcement or event
about five new fighters joining the UFC, it might
be more localized or specific to certain regions,
or the information might be spread across different
platforms and not consolidated into one report. Always
keep an eye on official UFC channels or reputable
MMA news sites for the most accurate and up-to-date
information. (Grok)

Sean Brady in the welterweight division. Burns, coming
off a loss, was looking to bounce back and prove he
still belonged at the top of the division, while Brady
aimed to solidify his position among the elite with
a win over a former title challenger.
Co-Main
Event: Jessica Andrade was set to face Natalia Silva
in the women's flyweight division. Andrade, known
for her significant weight cuts in the past, was experiencing
what she described as her best weight cut for this
fight, indicating her preparation and focus on this

Changes: The event faced a setback with the cancellation
of the fight between Ovince Saint Preux and Ryan Spann
due to Saint Preux's illness, reducing the card to
12 fights.

meanwhile, shared insights into her weight management,
highlighting her adaptability across weight classes.
Event
Significance: This event was crucial for several fighters,
especially Burns, who needed a win to remain relevant
in the title picture, and for up-and-comers like Natalia
Silva, who could make a significant leap with a victory
over a seasoned fighter like Andrade.
Given
there are no direct results or detailed fight outcomes
from the event itself in your query, this summary
focuses on the buildup, expectations, and the context
surrounding UFC Vegas 97. For actual fight results
or detailed play-by-play, one would typically look
for post-event reports or live updates which weren't

Brock Lesnar vs Jon 'Bones' Jones being speculated
by sports media commentators; Will WWE top brass make
it happen for WrestleMania
For
months there's been speculation running rampant about
the potential match up of Brock Lesnar aka 'The Beast'
vs Jon 'Bones' Jones.
Due
to Jones recent drug testing fail it would appear
that the obvious place for the match up to happen
would be under the WWE umbrella, and what better event
to have it take place than WrestleMania.
WWE
is always looking for unique, high interest (and grossing)
main event matches, and there's little doubt that
this dream match would draw massive publicity, and
would certainly help sell out an arena (and boost
WWE Network subscriber numbers at the same time).
Would
the risk of booking such a dream match be worth the
potential risk and payoff? Only a few select top brass
in the WWE would know, those individuals would be
the likes of Vince McMahon and Triple H. Pat Patterson
would possibly be in the decision making also, and
could very well help book the match, should it be
scripted, as all WWE matches are. Or, would the WWE
just have these men fight for real? Problem is if
its for real, as the WWF Brawl For All was, both men
could get seriously hurt and be out of action for
many months. Then again, both men would be part-times
and are special attractions, so it's not like they
have to be out on the road going to arena to arena,
following such a bout.
There's
also talk whether UFC / MMA sensation Conor McGregor
may seriously look at one or more matches under the
WWE banner no matter what the result from his clash
with Floyd 'Money' Mayweather, who is not a stranger
to the WWE ring, having previously fought and beat
'The Big Show' at WrestleMania 24.
It's
certainly interesting times for the WWE / Sports Entertainment
- MMA - Boxing connection.
Let's
all hope that a Lesnar vs Jones and the upcoming McGregor
vs Mayweather fight surpass the infamous Ali vs Inoki
match from 1976.
As
Bruce Buffer says, Let's get ready to rumble. Let's
now cross to ringside with Mauro Ranallo for the call
of the action.
