Pic: Brendan Schaub’s hilarious Wikipedia edit after Joe Rogan’s verbal beatdown

With hilarious results

This is one of the better Wikipedia edits we’ve seen in a while

Brendan Schaub was on the receiving end of a vicious beating at the weekend. Between the seemingly endless pummelling, the cheap shots when he was down and the horrendous below the belt shots, it was extremely difficult to watch the heavyweight in agony like that.

No, we’re not talking about his loss to Travis Browne at UFC 181. We’re referring to his appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, of course.

The American comedian/UFC commentator went to town on the fighter, calling into question his talent as a mixed martial artist and even suggesting that he should retire before he gets seriously hurt. Regardless of whether Rogan’s opinions rang true or not, the car-crash podcast made for tough but compelling viewing.

Following Rogan’s verbal assault, some comedian had the wise idea to edit Schaub’s Wikipedia page. The character updated his professional record to include the confrontation with Rogan. Whoever did it scores major bonus points for the ingenious play on words to produce the new term “VKO”, which I’ve added to my lexicon accordingly.
