Dan Severn vs Kross? Who is he gonna face? Good question, based on that lineup listed on FITE, I would assume Severn. But at the 10th Anniversary show it was announced Kross would face Mir with Aries in the corner of Mir. I think that match listing might be wrong.

I just watched that segment on FSW Youtube channel, same. I thought Mir vs. Kross would have been the match up? Actually looking at the line up, I feel like there is some missed opportunities and match ups that are happening. Not sure how the matches were being booked, but I don't feel like this is the strongest line up it could have?

Ryan Couture is a pro-wrestler now? it turns out this is indeed Ryan Couture's first-ever wrestling match: Ryan Couture is making his pro wrestling debut Friday under the FSW banner, performing on the same bill as other notable MMA names including Frank Mir, Tom Lawlor, and Dan Severn.Las Vegas, NV — When you carry the Couture family name, you’re pretty much synonymous with the sport of MMA. So it was no surprise to see Ryan Couture turn up at the Fighter’s Only World MMA Awards 2019 in Las Vegas on Wednesday.
Couture wasn’t presenting, but rather just taking in the show, which was expected to feature a cameo from his famous father Randy.
And it’s not MMA that Couture is gearing up for next, he told Cageside Press. “Kind of been taking a break from fighting, and focusing on the gym and coaching, really enjoying that.”
Instead, Couture’s next appearance will be in the squared circle, as he makes his pro wrestling debut for the Future Stars of Wrestling promotion.
“Gave into some peer pressure, doing my first ever pro wrestling match on Friday at an FSW event here in town. That should be a laugh if nothing else,” Couture admitted.
Some other Xtreme Couture names are on the bill, including Gina Mazany and her husband Dave. The event is titled “Natural Born Killers,” and the MMA connection doesn’t stop with Couture.
“I believe the main event is Frank Mir and Tom Lawlor, Stephan Bonnar’s on there somewhere, Gina’s wrestling Kyra Batara, she’s at least locally a well-known name in MMA.” As for Ryan Couture himself, “I’ll be taking on Dave [Mazany].”
This Friday in Las Vegas at the FSW Arena is where the action goes down. And while plenty of pro wrestlers get flack upon jumping to MMA, there’s no denying that the two professions have long been intertwined. Especially with the likes of Dan Severn on the bill Friday.

There is a meet and greet before this show tonight, I think mostly for front row, but I got a ticket secured for it even though tonight I am sitting GA and I am hoping to make some signings for the game tonight.
