Jake Hager, better known as “Jack Swagger” in the professional wrestling world couldn’t have had a better MMA debut at Bellator 214 Saturday night.
The former WWE star and amateur wrestler out of Oklahoma made easy work of J.W. Kiser (1-2 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) with a submission two minutes into the first round.

Hager also didn’t forget his WWE roots coming out to the octagon using his old “We the People” moniker while current WWE superstar Ron Killings (aka R-Truth) rapped his entrance music.
