"@philbaroni this is actually pathetic. This is what people wanna see? Go to a god dang gymnastics competition. Suplex, bodyslam, piledriver do some old school wrestling man. DDT, I remember when the frankensteiner was the most you’d ever see someone flip. I say Boo to this BS" https://twitter.com/dc_mma/status/942420416185978880 Daniel Cormier takes a moment to answer questions in a media scrum Former WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes, son of pro wrestling legend Dusty Rhodes, decided to butt heads with the UFC light heavyweight champion over the matter. "It's not pathetic. The paying audience enjoyed it. UFC is thriving, and pro-wrestling has been going strong since 1920...besides most of y'all ask hunter for a job when the wheels fall off anyway and most are on the comp list at staples...so lay the fuck off." https://twitter.com/CodyRhodes/status/942532290244210688 That being said, Cormier was quick to shoot back with a response. "I do ask for comps, I am a fan, I didn’t say anything about anything but that sequence of the match. Just be very careful bud! I’ve been a fan of urs too but be very careful. Lay off the cuss words it’s not that serious. And I won’t need a job. I’ll be good." https://twitter.com/dc_mma/status/942532982371262464 For more MMA news click here.
