Mixed martial artists continue to branch out to other opportunities both on television and in athletics. The latest fighter to step into a new competitive arena is Arizona Combat Sports fighter Aaron Simpson, who will be featured on the current season of "American Gladiators" on NBC. Simpson was an assistant coach at Arizona State University training alongside future MMA standouts such as Cain Velasquez, C.B. Dollaway and Ryan Bader. Arizona State on Tuesday announced the discontinuation of its wrestling program. Currently, Simpson sports a 2-0 record in professional MMA. He will look to make his mark in the American Gladiators competition this season along with his wife, Kendra Sirignano, who will compete in the women's division.

I didnt know ASU discontinued its wrestling program. That's a crying shame...they were the best in the west and this is another sign that wrestling as a college sport isn't exactly growing..
