Interesting...is he going to be a typical dumb muscle role?

Well at least he found a place to pay him.

 

[Sixstring]

Good for him. It's probably a lot of fun and has quite an audience.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I want to see him in a nightstick match against Nailz. Nailz would destroy him imo

 

[Prince Nephilim]

Wonder what his finisher is gonna be?

Maybe step in uppercut ala Werdum.

It was cool to see Masvidal on AEW and hit his flying knee

@HHJ is gonna have a wrastlegasm

Good for JDS. Hopefully he’s happy and paid well. Hated watching his decline. Seemed like a good hearted and kind person

[Lights Out 101]

Nice, good for him.

JDS deserves more respect round these parts. Extremely nice guy who had a monster run in the HW division at one point.

 

[Sensee]

I hope he does well in wrestling. He was fun to watch in his mma prime. Nothing but respect for junior.

 

[WaylonMercy5150]

[WaylonMercy5150]

He always had charisma...

 

[Darragh]

He is probably one of the most likeable guys in the game.
