I don't understand why they would want to pick up the debt. I think any org. that can put TV commercials and premium channel orders in it's ledger could do pretty well as far as staying solvent. But why not start from scratch rather than pick up the fubar that is pro elite?

Taking on the debt may be worth it to obtain ProElite's stable of fighters....
