WWE Rips On UFC 91

 
The latest report from Dave Meltzer's F4WOnline notes a WWE article (that has apparently been taken down now) which goes out of its way to specifically bash the UFC 91 undercard despite it proving to be one of the most exciting cards to date: "...Many of the fights on the UFC PPV ended in the first round leaving UFC producers scrambling to fill the three-hour event with content. The dearth off hearty competition left many viewers to watch less prestigious undercard fights and only served to bolster claims that UFC pay per view events can often be a `crap shoot' in regards to filling the full three hours."
