Ronda Rousey to star in Road House Reboot 


Variety is reporting that UFC Bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey will star in the reboot of the classic action film from the 1980’s Road House that the late great Patrick Swayze made famous.
Released in 1989, the original film starred Swayze as a bouncer hired to clean up one of the rowdiest, loudest bars in Missouri, The Double Deuce. A gentleman with a degree in philosophy, Swayze’s character’s calm is put to the test when he needs to protect the town from a corrupt businessman.
Rousey embraced the idea of having the staring role but said she wanted to be respectful before perusing the project so she reached out to Swayze’s widow Lisa Neimi for her blessing which she gladly gave.
Sources say that MGM are currently talking to screenwriters and that production is likely to begin in 2016 with Rousey playing the roll Swayze did in the original. Previously having roles in The Expendables 3, Furious 7 and Entourage this project is sure to be Rousey’s biggest role up to date.

Word going around is that there was suppose to be a mixed tag match at Night of Champions pinning Lana and Ziggler to go up against the team of Rusev and Summer Rae.

Lana took to Twitter and Instagram to address her injury. She had this to say: “I have dedicated my entire life to becoming the best sports entertainer I could be. Ever since I have debuted in @wwe I have continued to go to @wwenxt & come hours early before live events to train & learn how to fight. I wanted my first match to make the #WWE Universe proud. My wrist fracture is proof that WWE & professional wrestling is not fake but very real. This is a bump in the road & can be discouraging but for every person that has believed in me and has ever chanted #WeWantLana I will keep going. From here forward I will share every part of my journey to my first match. Thank you to every fan that has cheered for me & chanted my name, you all give me the strength to be brave. I will continue to give everything I have to becoming one of the greatest women in WWE & entertainment.”

Huge co main event named for UFC193

  What Dana White wants Dana Whie gets. When he sat down with New York Times late last month  he said he wanted Rousey and Jedrzejczyk both defending their titles on the same card. That card in question was suppose to be UFC195 but thanks to Lawler and Condit getting scraped Rousey and Holm were brought in as a replacement to headline the UFC193 card in Melbourne Australia.

A card that was already expected to break an all time attendance record just got all the more interesting. Today at the UFC Go big press conference in Vegas  it was announced that UFC Straweight Champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk will be defending her title for the 2nd time against challenger Valerie Letourneau in the co main event.

Jedrzejczyk’s original opponent was suppose to be Claudia Gadelha but due to a thumb injury she sustained in her last fight she’s unable to compete. Both Letourneau and Jedrzejczyk are coming off wins in their last fight. Letourneau who is (8-3) is coming off a Unanimous decision win over Marya Maroz from this last month. As where Jedrzejczyk who is (10-0) is coming off a 3rd round TKO victory against Jessica Penne from June

With this fight added Austrailia looks to be in for a treat. UFC193 will be the first event in the company’s history to have two women’s titles defended on a card. UFC193 takes place November 14th, 2016 from Melboene Australia and live on PPV

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria retires from MMA 

  
Former UFC and PRIDE Fighting Championships heavyweight champion Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira has officially announced his retirement from the sport of mixed martial arts.

Nogueria made the announcement today during a UFC press conference in Brazil. Nogueria came up short in his last bout against Stefan Struve who won by unanimous decision at UFC190

During the UFC190 post fight press conference Dana White said he felt like Nogueria was done and that he was going to talk to him about retirement. White also went on to say he would offer Nogueria a position as brand ambassador for fighters and fans.

Nogueria accepted the position and will begin work within the company immediately. Throughout the past 16 years, Nogueira has been a stalwart in the heavyweight division, well known as one of the most ferocious submission fighters to ever compete in the sport. He became PRIDE heavyweight champion in 2001 after defeating Heath Herring and would win his next five fights in a row before being dethroned by Fedor Emelianenko.

On behalf of MMA fans everywhere that you Big Nog for all the moments and memories
