Tucson, AZ The World's Most Dangerous Game Company, Running With Scissors (RWS), can now also boast the most lethal collection of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighters in the videogame universe. As part of the marketing campaign to keep its successful POSTAL franchise in the public eye, RWS CEO Vince Desi began to sign up local MMA fighters to sponsorship deals. The team currently includes rising UFC star Drew "The Master" Fickett, Ed West, Shane "Battle Cat" Johnson, Chad Griggs and female powerhouse, Hayley "The Hammer" Salazar.

Since signing with RWS, only one loss has been absorbed by these five gladiators while they have tallied a total of seven victories.

On February 24th at Rage in the Cage 79: The Rage Returns from the Desert Diamond Casino in Tucson, the trend continued. Ed West (8-1-0) retained his Rage in the Cage (RITC) Lightweight Championship in a three round unanimous decision against Carlos Ortega, while Shane Johnson (6-4-0) scored his third straight submission victory, this time locking up Seth Bacynski's leg like a pretzel and getting a tap out to the kneebar.

"As soon as the fight started, I realized he wanted to slug it out. He was gonna try to swing heavy and take my head off." So Ed sat back, using a combination of his reach advantage and "what I considered a huge psychological advantage I had over him since I'd fought him before and beat him before, so during the fight I did a bunch of things to screw with him. Once I realized I could hit him at will and still escape easily, I pretty much poured it on, but the dude had a head like a brick and I just couldn't put him out, despite how bloody he was. I taunted him, I'd flinch and then I'd hit him, anything I thought would throw him off." he confessed with an unrepentant chuckle that makes him such a perfect choice to enter the ring in full POSTAL garb. "I came across as very arrogant and cocky." In fact, when the fight was over and Ed got his hand on the microphone, he delivered a classic pro wrestling-style promo, informing the crowd that he didn't care whether they showed up to see him win or watch him get his clock cleaned, just as long as they showed up.

Shane "Battle Cat" Johnson, meanwhile, continued to steamroller the opposition. He was jubilant when we spoke to him about his third successive first round submission. "It was an exciting fight on a fast night when guys were getting their butts handed to them pretty quickly." At 6'2" and 220 lbs. Seth Bacynski was no tomato can. "I knew he was a good striker," Shane reported. "But I just took him down and gave him a lesson in grappling. It seemed like he was a fish out of water as soon as we went to the ground and I sensed that right away. So I figured I didn't want to stand with him."

The Battle Cat's next fight is set for L.A. on April 7, with an unfortunate opponent yet to be named. On the same card, Chad Griggs looks likely to take on the King of the Cage Super-Heavyweight Champion, Cadillac. "If it wasn't for sports," Shane told RWS, "we'd never know what we're capable of."

At Running With Scissors, meanwhile, excitement over this new group of sponsored fighters has been both a marketing score and a personal pleasure for the POSTAL team, virtually all of whom are MMA fans. "First and foremost, we sponsor people we like," said Vince Desi. "People who never give up." Then he stopped for a minute and smiled. "People like us."
