Recovering from Brutal Losses

Tonight was my second POW PPV show. Ahnu 4-0 was defending his Cruiserweight Championship against Zed Marlowe 2-1. Match starts and Ahnu throws a rolling backfist and KOs Zed in one move.

Ouch. So Zed is 2-2 now but that was pretty humiliating. How do you rebuild a guy from such a brutal defeated in the MMA game?

I'd probably do the same thing that a real-life promoter would do: feed Zed a steady diet of weaker opponents. After he's pumped up his record a bit, start challenging contenders again.

Yeah, that works really well. Also, buildign that it was a fluke might work. (In POW you're just going to get fluke victories like that every so often anyways)
