I'll give you fit finley....he can still go at 50! ...but regal has always been too slow and would get dominated in the fast pace world of MMA, IMO.

Heres who we're speaking of when we say Fit Finley, hes a active wrestler again in the WWE after quite afew years off, and you'd never tell by the way he wrestles aggresivley and everything , that he was 50. He's a good avatar if anyone is going to create a irish charcter :-)

And havnt you guys ever watched walker texas ranger? (Ive only seen the funny clips on conan,lol ,but still!) and laugh at all the mistakes and unrealitys and unseen cornyness? If you have seen it, you'd know Walker cant be defeated , he'd submit Hunter Dogan via torture of forcing him to watch walker texas ranger. Thats 30 minutes of a good day wasted! I much rather just laugh at how badly producted the show was which Conan O Brien highlights on his show for my "shits and giggles".

Chuck Norris is a dangerous man if there was a UFC senior division he'd win for real. Hes a legendary points karate champion & brown belt in BJJ so despite all the corny walker texas ranger crap he'd still be a force to be reckoned with! Oh and he'd glady face Hunter Dogan and kick his ass Also Les Henderson would gladly have a match on the anniversary show against Inoki mabye lol. *COUGH* WORKED DRAW *COUGH*

I don't think any pro wrestlers could make it in MMA, they're all just body-building actors. I mean their are tons of ripped fighters in pride and ufc that get their asses beat by guys who don't appear to be in great shape. Like that ripped giant guy that Alexander put down in like 10 seconds. The only wrestler I really ever liked was Goldberg back in the good old WCW days. He has some serious toughness from being a professional football player and a little work on his hands he'd be good to go.

You're saying that just because someone is a pro wrestler that they cant compete in Mixed Martial Arts? Sure, if you pulled a pro wrestler out of WWE and stuck him on the UFC 62 card he'd get served. The same results would come from pulling a hockey player or a basketball player from their sports of interest and expecting them to do fairly well in MMA without training. And you just named Bam Bam and....Hulk Hogan? out of all the wrestlers to choose from you chose two elders who basicly lived off of their entertainment value rather than actual wrestling skill? Believe it or not, some pro wrestlers actually do have wrestling skill. Kurt Angle, Shelton Benjamin, Charlie Haas, Brock Lesnar, ect and if you look at Matt Hughes, when he first came onto the scene all he had was wrestling experience. It was only after he trained in Jui Jitsu, used his hands and boxed more, that he became a well rounded fighter, so I wouldnt root any wrestler out unless they either have serious injuries (Kurt Angle) or are just.....no..(Chris Masters, Balls Mahoney, HHH.) Please don't be one of those "Hate wrestling because it's fake and that's the only explaination I can give of it" types of peoples I dont like pro wrestling, but I dont have one of those unhealthy hates for it either. Poor Man's Opera if you ask me.

Come on people, Bam Bam Bigelow whooped Kimo's ass.
;D
With the right training and dedication any athlete could do fairly well in MMA. Wrestlers, even PRO, are athletes with a lot of exceptions in some cases, but most of them could do great with training.

Maybe we could create Wee-Man to fight Sean Tovin. He's supposed to be damn strong for a dwarf, and he did put up a good fight against that child Thai boxing champ.

Sean Tovin was just a big joke if you guys didn't know, I created the username and everything.
But he could be brought back due to popular demand.
