Would be great if they aired their Prelims
Been saying it for years bellators Prelims are of great quality spike is slipping not airing them but more exposure on multiple networks is wonderful.

@MMASun @Jason_Floyd People are missing the bigger story here. Is NBCSN paying anything to WSOF? How are they making any cash?

Zuffa is funding all of this. They are either colluding with Fertitta friend and former NSAC commissioner Sig Rogich of the WSOF to manipulate the MMA market (mainly fighter market)... or the WSOF is in actuality a Zuffa front.
Collusion is illegal. The US federal governments competiom police at the federal trade commission put Zuffa under the microscope during the Strikeforce aquisition. They stated that they would keep the Zuffa/UFC file open.
I'm sure that starting a new B-organization would have drawn a lot of attention from the FTC. It also would have if Zuffa publicly bought Invicta to corner the major-league women's MMA market. We'll it looks more and more like both things may have been pulled off without anybody in the MMA media even knowing.
Collusion
A non-competitive agreement between rivals that attempts to disrupt the market's equilibrium. By collaborating with each other, rival firms look to alter the price of a good to their advantage. The parties may collectively choose to restrict the supply of a good, and/or agree to increase its price in order to maximize profits. Groups may also collude by sharing private information, allowing them to benefit from insider knowledge.
Front Company/Organization
A front organization is any entity set up by and controlled by another organization, such as intelligence agencies, organized crime groups, banned organizations, religious or political groups, advocacy groups, or corporations. Front organizations can act for the parent group without the actions being attributed to the parent group
