WWE’s Charlie Dempsey Set for Return to Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XII Against AKIRA
WWE NXT Heritage Cup Champion Charlie Dempsey is set to return to Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport for his third appearance.
Dempsey first competed at Bloodsport X, securing a win against Matt Makowski, but lost to Royce Isaacs at Bloodsport XI. He will face AKIRA at Bloodsport XII, with both competitors aiming to recover from recent defeats in the tournament.
Bloodsport, known for its unique and gritty MMA-influenced format, has previously featured several WWE-affiliated talents, and Dempsey’s participation highlights WWE’s current openness to cross-promotional appearances.
Charlie Dempsey vs. Akira takes place on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at Josh Barnett’s Bloodsport XII, presented by Game Changer Wrestling. The event streams live on Triller from Jersey City, NJ.
