Video: The epic entrances from Bellator’s New Year’s Eve sweep over Rizin

Team Bellator had a pretty epic way to ring in the new year Saturday, and its members’ entrances were equally epic.

Bellator fighters went 5-0 in their matchups against Rizin fighters at a crossover event at Saitama Super Arena near Tokyo. Former featherweight champion A.J. McKee and current champ Patricio Freire got wins at the top of the bill. But so, too, did Kyoji Horiguchi, Juan Archuleta and Gadzhi Rabadanov.

Check out some of the epic only-in-Japan entrances from the fighters on the New Year’s Eve card below.
