Two days before Bulldog Bully Stephenson, Hammer Clarion and Nakazumi Hawaaiti step into a triple threat for the vacant DRC Heavyweight Championship, Hawaaiti had one last word on the staredown between his two rivals that made headlines last week.

“Clarion wants to stand a foot from Bulldog and say nothing. Bulldog wants to be gracious about it. Fine. Stare at each other all you want,” Hawaaiti said. “Friday isn’t a conversation between two men. It’s a match between three. I’ll still be standing when the staring stops.”

Neither Clarion nor Stephenson has responded as of publication. With the triple threat now the closing image of Reckoning #1’s build, all three men have had their final say heading into fight week.
