The UFC On The Pages Of Playboy?
April 5, 2008
Word on the street, according Dave Meltzer’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter, is that “Rachelle Leah of UFC All Access will be doing a Playboy cover.”
The moment I read this little nugget of testosterone I instantly thought: “What a strange choice.”
Now, we all figured it was only a matter time before the UFC and Playboy got in bed together (get it?). Both cater to the same demo and being associated with the likes of Playboy will only further solidify the fact that the UFC has gone mainstream. The bunny has certainly worked wonders for the World Wrestling Entertainment divas so it all makes sense from a business and exposure standpoint.
However, I find it strange that Playboy would choose Leah over, say, current Octagon Girl Arianny Celeste (and, by the way, since we are on the topic of Octagon Girls, why is everyone getting all heated and emotional about these lovely ladies on the Internet? Look around, there appears to be an abundance of weird commentary being written on this topic in the MMA blogosphere).
