Randy Couture hopes ‘Gym Rescue’ series helps some of MMA’s ‘growing pains’

BAD MMA News — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 23:30:00 +0000

Randy Couture counted seven Xtreme Couture franchises in the U.S. and Canada at the height of MMA’s boom late this past decade. Then the market cooled, and gyms began to close. “The economy, especially in the gym industry, has been very difficult,” he told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “The economy took care of a bunch of them. There’s two left now with Las Vegas and Toronto.” You could see irony in the UFC Hall of Famer’s new role in “Gym Rescue,” a new reality show that mirrors the popular “Bar Rescue” program, or a bit of savvy casting from the cable network, which inked Couture to a TV deal early this year. In the show, Couture travels to cities around the country to help MMA gyms in the fickle business of getting everyday people into the cage, and keeping them there.
