Alex "Blue States Lose" Blagg is a pretty prototypical New York blogger, except for the fact that he used to wrestle in high school. That bit of athletic glory in his past somehow inspired him to arrange an actual, physical wrestling match with Quentin "Rampage" Jackson, the current Ultimate Fighting Championship champion and honest-to-god badass of the first order [Best Week Ever]. We won't give away who won this battle of equals! The full video is after the jump. Keep in mind that Rampage's favorite technique is called the "Power Bomb":

Before even watching this, I'm gonna predict that there's been no Blue States Lose 'cause both of Blagg's arms are broken?
the last minute stomach punch was kind of amazing.
@DorothyMantooth: ...aaaaaand, looks like I was right!
The best part, though, is how Alex tries to pull his headband back down right before dude tosses him over his shoulder!! Heeee! You can take the boy out of the Blue States Lose, but...
"But I'm a blogger" is the adult's "Don't hit me - I just got braces?"
satisfying
Get off the mat and write me some goddamned Blue States Lose, fuckwad!
Blagg was holding back. I want a rematch.
UFC is serious sports for us gays. I actually had a 20 minute conversation with my straight brother in law about it.
Pareene, I volunteer you for this next.
"Power Bomb"? ... fortunately, the wrestling match didn't end with Rampage pulling out the sports section and starting to whistle ...
fuck, if blagg is out of commission that means nothing but michelle collins stand-up barrage.
which is like being suplexed by a black man. but with no mat.
@Hamilton Nolan: I think Sheila could beat this guy.
I used to swim, can I do one of these with Marisa Miller?
not to mention that was a belly-to-back suplex. not a power bomb.
god.
@mitchel_stevens: Yeah, when the post mentions power bomb, someone should really get power bombed in the video.
@Conbon: How 'bout Mark Spitz?
@DorothyMantooth: That seems less fun.
@Conbon: Oh, I'd enjoy it!
That trouncing requires a post match butt cheek taping in the locker room.
That would have been a lot more fun if it had been Jakob Lodwik. But, hey...then I guess I wouldn't need this jacket!!!
I like Rampage Jackson a lot because he kicked Chuck Liddell's ass so fiercely right as the Iceman was sorta becoming a big deal.
Maybe he'll do us all another favor and kick Ellen Page's or Diablo Cody's ass next.
I used to drive a car. Can I wrestle Danica Patrick?
It's impressive that there was no cackling laughter. Granted I don't have the sound on, but you can always hear the cackling.
@John Carney: I own underwear. Think Miranda Kerr is up for this?
Delahaye could stuff both of them.
Could have this guy do that to Julia Allison? Please?
I kind of want to wrestle Quentin Rampage Jackson... NAKED.
@fiveinchtaint: Bender, if I lose my temper you're totalled, man.
@BettyCrocker: Team Hughes all the way, baby.
@Mary Mouse: Blagg v. Delahaye, COMING SOON.
@Bell County: Totally?
@Mary Mouse:
he probably did. hey-oh.
@fiveinchtaint: Totally.
I think I enjoyed this more that the Hait-ians!
@valet_of_the_dolls:
Hughes is a punk, Team St. Pierre!
Velcro?!? That is the Worst Championship Belt Ever.
all the wrestlers from my high school are now are now broadway chorus boys.
@whoneedslight: Oh, it is on.
