Chuck Norris' WCL will be returing to the Frank Erwin Center on January 20, 8pm for their Inaugural Season National Championship. The four teams set to compete are the Miami Force vs. the Houston Enforcers and the Philadelphia Fire vs. the Los Angeles Stars. In the WCL the fighters are rewarded for punching, kicking, and kneeing, but are penalized for stalling and passivity. Here's what Mr. Norris has to say, “Our goal with the WCL is to bring together the world’s most skilled martial arts experts by region and to provide sports fans with an unmatched level of fighting action in every second of each round of every team contest.” Tickets are currently on sale and cost $25, $35, $100, and $150 (limited number of floor seats available), and can be purchased at all Texas Box Office Outlets. Charge by phone at 477-6060 or 800/982-2386 or order online at TexasBoxOffice.com.
