News Upstart WFL hoping to sign close to 200 fighters next year

[SalvadorAllende]

A promotion coming out the gate looking to sign 200 people before theyve even held one show doesnt give me high hopes for their success

At the very worst we get to enjoy a good season.

I agree

Personally I could care less about the team gimmick since we’ve already seen it before in MMA, but if done right it could help build up a local fanbase. 200 fighters is ambiguous, but you need to cast a wide net to find potential stars. They likely won’t have the capital to sign big names so they’ll have to develop their own talent

Most important is to give all these 200 fighters a fight. We do not want to read daily that x-fighters have signed with them and nothing happens. Just look at bare knuckle fights.
