Also for Rampage, pretty sure he got the nickname as a kid because he got into his fair share of trouble during his youth.

It was a professional wrestler name Mach pronounced Maha

Stephan Bonner got his nickname from one of the fighters on TUF. They were just throwing around nicknames for everyone and some one said Bonner looked like a pycho and he has that all american accountant look at the same time thus "The American Psycho". They got it from the movie. Your Welcome Everyone. This was a good thread. Props to Bulletproof.
