Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger Returns to Bellator MMA Cage Tomorrow

Former WWE United States Champion, ECW World Heavyweight Champion and WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger (real name Jake Hager) is scheduled to have his second fight in the Bellator MMA promotion tomorrow night at Bellator 221, as he will face T.J. "Tombstone" Jones, who currently holds a professional record of 1-1.

As fans might be aware, Swagger made a successful Bellator MMA debut back in January of this year against J.W. Kiser at Bellator 214. Swagger defeated Kiser by submission in the first round of the fight.

The 37-year-old Swagger was a very talented amateur wrestler before his time in WWE, as he was an NCAA Division I All-American heavyweight wrestler.
