Countdown to Rua vs. Lawler premieres tonight on Showtime
Showtime’s countdown show for EliteXC’s next card on Sept. 15 in Hawaii featuring Murilo “Ninja” Rua vs. Robbie Lawler for the EliteXC middleweight title will debut tonight at 1 a.m. ET on Showtime.
I recommend that loyal 5 Oz. readers check out the countdown show because a certain someone you know might be appearing on the show opening his big mouth about the matchups.
If you’re not able to see tonight’s showing, here is a schedule of future airings:

Goldberg?
Is he still announcing for their events? I like the Mauro and Quadros team.

“The Dream Team” of Mauro and Quadros are the best in the business. However, I believe Bill Goldberg will still be a commentator for the major EliteXC cards.

Just watched it Sam, you got some good exposure there! Also, you were the “shiniest” talking head – I think the ref should have wiped you down before they filmed!

They did wipe me down and the dome was still shiny! Bald heads and bright lights don’t go well together.
