Alistair Overeem defends the Heavyweight title!
Shogun Rua battles his way through a hard-fought tournament, earns a title shot against, arguably, one of our most beatable champions, and xx - Camp Cannon sits on 5 points, rather than giving Rua even the SLIGHTEST boost. What a god damned waste of a tournament win.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
