Many non UFC fans say they are not interested in the product because the find it boring. These are wrestling fans I assume, as they are on this very forum. Now one thing I notice about wrestling fans is this fact. We love to see a gimmick match thrown into the mix. We love our ladder matches, our hell matches, our no DQ matches and what not.
Now how would you feel about the UFC using matches that have a gimmick. UFC is a legitimate sport, unlike the WWE and so they would have to be more tasteful with these gimmicks. As we have seen before, there have been gimmick matches in the WWE that did not involve a ridiculous assault on a normal one on one wrestling match.
The closest that I typically see from UFC relating to a gimmick match is having the Ultimate Fighter coaches fight each other. Most even simple gimmick matches could not happen in UFC, I can't even see a two on two match being regulated. Now one match that I could see the UFC using is having two fighters fight over something unique to them. Have Guida fight someone in a hair vs hair match. the match could be build as something more than just a lightweight match and could draw more people in.
What are your thoughts? Any gimmick matches possible for UFC?
