UFC runs a better wrestling company than the wwe does

Think about it... at most, 2 shows a month and 80 per cent of the shows are very good- excellent.

The build up to the big fights is usually about 5 months. The results actually mean something. When someone goes over the top and goes apeshit (see Brock Lesnar and Dan Henderson this past saturday) it actually means something because people don't see it every single fucking week. When guys actually have a feud, people really care about it, there is actual emotional investment. Again, look at Bisping vs. Henderson, the young cocky upstart running his mouth against the aging, much respected veteran who people were questioning. The way the fight ended was definitive and unpredictable. If you want to see heat about something go into the mma forum and see how much people are going nuts about the controversy.

There's drug tests after every fight. There's bonuses for submission, ko and fight of the night. There's insentive to perform. It doesn't matter if you're the top guy, you can get knocked off at any point, one punch changes everything.

Big signings actually mean something, because they can actually succeed because it's really up to them how they do.

Most importantly, MMA holds the inpredictability wrestling so desperately craves.

Essentially mma pretty much nabbed the attitude demographic, the demographic that craved the in your face unpredictability that wrestling used to offer.

The undercard fights actually mean something as well. Every fight has implications one way or another, there's never a throwaway fight.

Vince needs to start taking notes.
