BAEST MODE!!!

Bellator's mistake was that the tournaments were for title shots. They should have just thrown the champion into a seeded tournament bracket and let the belt get pushed along like in any other sports league.

No one gave a poo poo about the Bellator tournaments and slightly tweaking the format would have made the promotion less hilarious which is bad. At least then we'd get situations where champions would lose non title matches and the guy who won had to enter a tournament to get a shot. That's funny for months. Seeing the champion put in a tournament where the crowd doesn't give a poo poo about anyone in the tournament? Boring.

easy fix would be to put the current champ in the seed and make it a one night tournament. Call it Battle Of ____ whatever major city they run in.

You can't do a one night tournament in any commission state without rules that completely defeat the purpose of a tournament.

Remember when one admin had an anti-ufc hardon and would delete event pages for like a year and a half?

That guy must still exist because there's a bunch of (YEAR) in UFC pages for minor events.

There might be good reason to let it pass since there is mounting evidence major corporations are starting to push out the small businesses.

The secret to huge rights fees are having your ratings plummet. WWE, UFC, now Bellator.
