Suring DreamStage is asking for trouble with the Yamaguchi Gumi guys.
I doubth Dana is going to step foot in Japan for a long time and if he does, there is probably going to be a big discount on “white” meat ramen in Kobe.

[...] shotgun wedding has been brought up to the surface again recently with one of Zuffa’s many tin-man companies filing suit against DSE, the former owners of the PRIDE brand. Rehashing the whole thing is an exercise in futility, [...]

its business. If you make a bad deal, take it like a man and move on.
It was a horrible deal for the UFC but its not Prides fault that the UFC brass are so stupid to sign the contract.

Fraud is one of the elements of a typical corporate veil piercing claim

“what exactly are they going to sue DSE for since zuffa already has all the DSE assets?”

No they don’t. They own much more and I think their highest earner is HUSTLE which is a wrestling show.

If DreamStage is a shell company and thus has no assets, it is meaningless to sue DreamStage. But if , Hustle is a corporate asset of DreamStage and can be sought after. However, Zuffa also sued Sakakibara in some form of corporate piercing claim or as an individual defendant.

Somebody (that means you, Sam) needs to get a copy of the complaint, which should spell out why Zuffa sued. Might not have anything to do with White.

LOL, they should sue Dana for running all negotiations in Japan into the ground. How long will they keep him? He’s burning more bridges that than nazi’s did in WWII
