“What a Nightmare”: Fans Plead Joe Rogan to “Uninvite” Former UFC Heavyweight for UFC 293 Fight Companion Episode

Israel Adesanya versus Sean Strickland will be a monumental clash. The build-up to the middleweight title clash has been intensified by the fiery exchange of words between the two rivals. To add to the excitement of the bout, the UFC is ready with their broadcast team, where Jon Anik, Daniel Cormier, and Laura Sanko will take on the roles of commentators. Unfortunately, the fan-favorite UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, won’t be present at Qudos Bank Arena. Yet fans won’t miss out on his reaction to the fight.

People can see Rogan’s live reaction to the bout through JRE. But, it seems that many fans are not at all happy with Rogan’s chosen fight companions.

Joe Rogan announces his fight companions for UFC 293

UFC commentator, Joe Rogan, took to Instagram and announced, “Fight Companion! Tomorrow night during the main UFC card on pay per view. We’ll be live on the PowerfulJRE YouTube page with @samtripoli @brendanschaub and @bryancallen.“

The fans, who are usually excited to watch Rogan’s live reaction to fights, were highly disappointed about this one. The major reason is that the former ‘Fear Factor’ host’s fight companions are Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen.

Interestingly, the former UFC heavyweight has appeared on the show a whopping 88 times. This makes Schaub the most appeared guest on JRE. The second-most-repeated person on Rogan’s show is Eddie Bravo, who was a part of the Spotify podcast 85 times.

Bryan Callen appeared on the show 84 times. The major reason for their frequent appearance is that they are the trio of guests who are Rogan’s fight companions. However, it seems that the fans are finally getting bored after seeing them so many times.

Fans do not want to see Brendan Schaub: “Get rid of Schaub”

One fan felt that Schaub and Callen’s coming together as Rogan’s fight companions were nothing less than a nightmare. Another fan asked Rogan if he could “uninvite” Schaub so that they could peacefully watch the podcast.

• “What a Nightmare”
• “Can you uninvite Schaub?”

It’s hard for the former ‘Fear Factor’ host to replace him, as Schaub is his dear friend. In fact, Rogan played a big role in Schaub’s decision to retire from MMA. The UFC commentator once got honest with the fighter about his MMA skills, and that moment seemed like a hiccup in their friendship. But the two left the awkward incident behind and remain good friends till today.

One fan wanted the UFC commentator to ignore the former UFC fighter and bring comedian Shane Gillis to watch live fights. Meanwhile, another fan claimed that Callen and Brendan are just good at irritating the fans.

• “Get rid of schaub and bring on Shane Gillis”
• “This is the Bryan and Brendan annoyingly unfunny button.”

An Instagram user was only ready to watch the podcast if there was an edit without Schaub. Another fan pleaded with Rogan to bring other people while reacting to live fights.

• “If someone make an edit after its finished cutting out all of schaub, that would be great”
• “Man, can you please do a fight companion with different ppl. Keep Callen or Eddie but pls not Sam or Shuab”
• “Lol looks like we all agree no one like Bryan or Brendan”

Apart from being friends with Schaub, Rogan has referred to Bryan Callen as his brother. The two have been close since the 90s and share their love for comedy, combat sports, and podcasting. Thus, regardless of what Rogan’s fans feel, it doesn’t look like Schaub or Callen will stop making appearances on JRE.
