When ownership of a company changes hands, there's no love or loyalty to the old regime, something two recently released UFC legends learned firsthand. No matter how long you've been around, it's out with the old, in with the new.

When Viacom announced that Bellator MMA founder Bjorn Rebney was being let go on June 18, 2014, the CEO of Bellator was surprisingly silent in the face of social media speculation about why, until this tweet on June 29th.

While some people may have thought he was in Mexico to watch some fights or scout talent for a new promotion, the truth behind this tweet went unexplained until Rebney recently appeared on Ariel Helwani's MMA Hour to explain.
