    I didn't think that they would pull Rampage off of the NYE card. The headlining fight, Mir/Nog, doesn't appeal to the common fan. The UFC is going to need people who the casual fan can recognize..Wandy and Rampage are that.

    TUF will make Mir and Nog more recognizable and they held a mediocre card for the last 2 TUF coaches and it sold plenty of PPV's.
    Of course the coaches were Rampage and Forrest so who's to tell :D

    The NYE card is going to be a good one. Hopefully Page/Wand is on it. Hopefully I'm at it!

    amen.. Hopefully you do make it.. then you have to post all your photos posing with various fighters here :ghoti:

    just one hint.. if you run into Dan Henderson, DO NOT ask if he will put you in a choke hold pose for the picture. ;)
