UFC President Dana White And Wrestling Fan Get Into It Over PPV Prices, Wrestling Being "Fake"
While promoting tonight's UFC 190 on Twitter this afternoon, UFC President Dana White had a rough encounter with a pro wrestling fan regarding the price of the show.
A Twitter user criticized White and the UFC over UFC 190's $60 price tag in comparison to WWE Network's $9.99 price tag. White said that he agreed the price was high, but that fake entertainment should have a $9.99 price tag.
White followed up and said that he wasn't disrespecting anything WWE did, and noted he had positive interactions with WWE Superstars in the past, but was looking to differentiate UFC and WWE in his statement.
Wrestling Inc will have full, live coverage of UFC 190 tonight, with quick results of the prelims at 7 pm eastern, and full, round-by-round coverage starting with the PPV at 10 pm eastern.
