“The Bruiserweight” Pete Dunne is ready for his Bloodsport debut.
Josh Barnett announced Dunne will compete at Bloodsport XIII on April 17. Dunne is the second active WWE Superstar who will compete at the next Bloodsport event, following Natalya.
“A “Strong Style” Englishman, from the tough, industrial city of Birmingham. He has no problem trading blows or submission holds – wherever the fight goes, this “Bruiserweight” wrestler is up for it,” Barnett wrote on Twitter/X. “ Pete Dunne is coming to Josh Barnett’s: Bloodsport XIII.”
Dunne recently had a short feud with PENTA on the RAW brand. His last match on the show was loss to Ludwig Kaiser in a triple threat match that also involved the luchador. Dunne’s last match (to date) in WWE was a win over Cruz Del Toro on the March 6 episode of WWE Main Event. Prior to that, he feuded with Sheamus on RAW and sporadically wrestled on Main Event.
