Back in the early 2000s, WWE Hall of Famer, Kurt Angle, had a captivating theme song before entering the ring. There were no lyrics in his theme songs but the crowd loved to chant “YOU SUCK!, YOU SUCK!.”. However, the former Interim UFC welterweight champion, Colby Covington did the same tonight at UFC 268.
Colby ‘Chaos’ Covington faced off against Kamaru Usman for the welterweight championship inside the mecca of fighting, Madison Square Garden. However, Covington surprised everyone when he walked out with Kurt Angle’s theme song.
