During this week's open workouts for UFC on Fox, Barnett ended up working an exhibition pro wrestling match, taking bumps just two days before his big heavyweight fight with Ben Rothwell.

Barnett started by warming up and hitting pads, before a masked man, who we can only speculate is El Hijo Del Reebok based on his gear, attacked him. This isn't the first time Barnett has used open workouts to put on a pro wrestling match, as he did it in Strikeforce as well.
