I’m very proud to update that report with news that Frank fought his first match and came out on top, and more importantly that at least one part of my childhood is still in tact. It’s disheartening when our childhood heroes turn out to be disappointments — adulterers, racists, Republicans (any combination of those things being purely coincidental) — so let’s all bask in the knowledge that at least one former Power Ranger really CAN kick ass in real life. He’s still got that whole “Jesus Didn’t Tap” thing going against him, but, you know, it’s not like he’s wrong about that. (Jason David Frank: one more thing in common with Jesus.) What with the Pink Ranger holding it down weekly on “Flashpoint“, I think we’re about ready for a reunion, yes? (Minus the Yellow Ranger, of course, RIP.) Get on that, Jimmy Fallon.

Video (and awesome soundtrack) after the jump:

It’s hard to see, but for anyone who cares, the move Frank used to win was an omoplata. Which isn’t as badass as a Dragonzord missle, but close. MMA girls breaks it down for you here.
