Rizin garnered some traction, peaked at 10.3% on FujiTV during Tenshin vs Fujita

Until they stop adding events in advance, which we are due for 2 officially in decemeber.

I really hope it gains traction and eventually becomes Pride 2.0. Right now the presentation and feel is there but the talent is not. They need to bring in a bunch more gaijins who have name value and/or are considered credible.

I was on the RIZIN bandwagon being such a huge PRIDE fan, but the feeling just wasn't there. Neither was the presentation. It didn't even have decent English commentary like PRIDE did. I went off and haven't watched an event since, doesn't feel like the PRIDE i knew.
