Bjorn Rebney reappeared on Wednesday in a new form, no longer the merchant sailor Edmond Dantes from the Bellator days, but now a full-fledged Count of Monte Cristo — the defender of justice against the tyrannical UFC! — descending from the remote Anaheim Hills of California! — speaking legalese a mile-a-minute, but in a way that didn’t preclude him from saying ‘wussup’ to Mike Straka.
Weird? Hell yeah, weird. Meaningful? Probably that too. People aren’t afraid to stand up to the UFC anymore.
At some point you knew all that grumbling would grow up into something more action intensive, something like a singular chant in a loud voice, and on the last day of November in 2016 it did.
