MattM Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The board's are a buzzing that Cro-Cop is out. Already a weak card as far has big names go (not talent). If true this surely isn't going to help sell the PPVs. Way to short of notice to find a legit fight ready replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
