Dustin Poirier watches on as MMA star drops The Rock’s signature WWE move moments before scoring KO win

During a fight on UFC legend, Anthony Pettis' promotion, APFC, one of his hunters dropped one of the most bizarre movements in an MMA cage of all time, observed by Dustin Poirier.

During his time in the UFC, Anthony Pettis set off some of the craziest movements to see in the Octagon, with his characteristic 'Showtime Kick' as one of the most iconic moments in the MMA history.

Since leaving the UFC and then taking a step back from competing, 'Showtime' has created his own MMA promotion, Anthony Pettis FC.

APFC is the self-proclaimed fastest growing MMA promotion in the United States and all their events that are broadcast live on UFC Fight Pass.

MMA Fighter drops the characteristic movement of the rock during the APFC event

On Sunday, APFC 16 took place from Milwaukee, with various titles on the line at the top of the bill and UFC legend, Dustin Poirier was present to view the night of fighting.

However, it was a fight on the undercard that went viral and stole the headlines, after Miguel Sanson had dropped the characteristic WWE movement of the rock, the elbow of the people.

There have been many bizarre movements in MMA, but this can be the first opportunity in which a hunter has integrated a famous WWE -Finisher.

Swanson continued his opponent, Chris Johnson, shortly after 'The People's Ellebow' picked him up and hit him on his head in another WWE-like movement.

The subsequent scene was quite a disturbing scene, because Johnson had to be connected to oxygen and was stretched out of the cage after a while.

Dustin Poirier was hit with a similar movement after brutal UFC Ko loss

After Poirier was brutally eliminated by Justin Gaethje during their UFC 291 BMF title fight, Poirier was hit with the characteristic movement of the rock by referee, Herb Dean.

'The Diamond's' presence on APFC 16 comes during a quiet time in his career. After his UFC 302 loss for Islam Makhachev, Poirier revealed that he will retire after his next fight.

Although the former UFC -Interim light weight champion does not yet have an official fight, rumors continue to circulate that he will complete a trilogy against the current BMF champion, Max Holloway.
