It’s been almost two weeks since the sale of Bloody Elbow went public and GRV Media took over the various properties they acquired. Staff was warned the week of the sale that the new owners wouldn’t be keeping them and that’s been the case in actuality. They did put out a call that they were looking for experienced writers for producing content on the h…
While our fearless leader battles malware demons and other wicked foes, I sneaked back into his bunker for another chat with longtime investigative journalist Zach Arnold. I don’t know where Nate hid the shotgun (even though I said it was by the door), and I’m pretty sure that the mongrel outside the gates isn’t his mighty hound, but I did pull the shad…
It’s been a hot minute since we’ve had a Bunker episode, so we decided to do something a little different. Nate pulled the blinds, put the shotgun by the door and the attack dog patrolled the perimeter as he welcomed me into his hallowed grounds for a bit of a role reversal. This week, I put Nate in the hot seat to provide a detailed update on what’s go…

This week, Nate opens up the MMA Bunker for one of his patented tête-à-têtes, this time with Icon Sport founder T Jay Thompson. Thompson reminisced on what those early days were like in Hawaii as one of the first promotions in the sport not named UFC. He also discussed the downfall of fighters that were once on his roster like Phil Baroni and Jason “May…
It’s that time again, time to pull down the shades, lock the doors and buckle up for a new session in the MMA Bunker. Kid Nate has another great interview, this time with one of the three founders of SB Nation, the Blogfather, Jerome Armstrong. Armstrong talked about how he got into the blogosphere, his background in politics, how he met up with Nate.

The last few years has seen a dramatic shift in online media for all spaces, not just our fair MMA community, nor even the sports community at large. It’s affected all of us from sports to mainstream news and entertainment coverage. Sites like Buzzfeed, Vice and Deadspin saw massive downsizing, owner changes and all manner of disruption resulting in man…
For the last four or five months (maybe longer), insiders have buzzed around the MMA gossip vine with rumors of a possible Bellator sale. The suitors have always been reported to be either an entity from Saudi Arabia or PFL. The PFL rumors were shot down at the time, but recently, chatter has begun again, and the whispers are that PFL is back in the run…
This week’s MMA Bunker has Kid Nate pretty hot under the collar. The state of MMA is on his mind and with the recent spate of dismal UFC cards, his attention has landed upon Bellator, first and foremost. He’s got some other grievances to air out, but Bellator and Patricio Pitbull get the first stingers.
