"We've got six Spanish bullfighters coming from Spain, not traditional Matadors that harm bulls this is going to be 100% just entertainment. They're going to dodge bulls and they get judged based on how close the bull's horn gets to them. And then there's also going to be members of Bull Fighters Only coming and doing freestyle bullfighting. Where they get judged based on how well they control the bullfight for 60 seconds."
