Report: Former WWE Star Jake Hager Set For MMA Return At Bellator 250
Jake Hager’s return to the Bellator cage is set.
As per MMA Junkie, the former WWE and current AEW star will feature at Bellator 250 which takes place October 29 at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. His opponent will be fellow unbeaten heavyweight Brandon Calton with both fighters having a 2-0 professional record.
Hager, however, has one no contest to his name after his last outing in October last year where an accidental groin strike rendered opponent Anthony Garrett unable to continue.
