Johny Hendricks’ Steakhouse Closes Down After Fails To Profit

The steakhouse founded by former UFC welterweight champion Johny Hendricks has closed its doors.

Back in 2015, Hendricks opened a steakhouse in his hometown of Midlothian, Texas. Titled “Bigg Rigg Steakhouse,” after the fighter’s UFC moniker, the restaurant has since closed its doors.

The establishment offered everything from $13 eight-ounce sirloins to $21 16-ounce T-Bones. The former champion would go on to claim that the restaurant was established as a way to give back to the community.

“Restaurant is done. I tried a business that failed; you learn from it and move forward.” Hendricks stated.
