What you’re about to see is a highlight-reel of sorts from a 1998 flick called Champions. We’ll let IMDb handle the synopsis:
William Rockman (Louis Mandylor) is a champion "Terminal Combat" fighter who retired from the sport after accidentally killing a young man while training. Five years after his retirement, Terminal Combat has been banned by the government and has gone underground. The "new" Terminal Combat is just that; one combatant in each match usually does not live to tell about the experience. When Rockman’s younger brother is killed in one of the underground matches by his old rival, the King (Ken Shamrock), Rockman enters the tournament to exact revenge on the King, not knowing that the King and his wife, Daria, have been enslaved by Max Brito (Danny Trejo), the tournament’s greedy promoter. When it becomes known that Brito intends to rake in huge bucks for a rematch between Rockman and the King (their last fight 5 years before had ended in a draw), and that he also intends to kill the King either inside or outside of the ring (and therefore keep Daria for himself as a concubine), Rockman, the King, and other tournament survivors band together to plan Daria’s rescue and their escape.
Anyway, I feel bad for anyone who had to watch this, but Trejo is a legend, and it’s pretty cool that his character’s last words are "AHHH! BEEYITCH!"

commentsNice wrestling vid, too bad CB Tappaway doesn't deal well with pain.
PS: I don't get all the CB hate
Ya know, I've been having a shitty week. That Shamrock vid made me LOL
"Shamrock vs Dignity"....hilarious!
- I felt so bad for the TKD guy who got KTFO'd, I coulda swore he was wearing glasses.
- Watching the TKD fight, it made me think that I would love to see more axe kicks ala Andy Hug in MMA. When they're done properly and with lighting speed, it would be an awesome weapon to have when you mix up, punches and fake kicks.
