It looks as if there will be a lot of mayhem afoot in the Saddledome this summer.

Tuesday, journalist Ariel Helwani tweeted that there's a plan to bring UFC 289 to Calgary on June 10.

That, Helwani added, would be a make-good for UFC 149 in 2012, when a lot of last-minute changes to the card resulted in a terrible night of fights.The 2012 event sold out, drawing over 16,000 people and grossing $4.1 million, but the main bouts were so lacklustre, even White complained about them.article."I hope we didn't leave a bad taste in Calgary's mouth. But now we regroup.Current plan is for UFC 289 to take place June 10 in Calgary … Alberta … Canada.

The UFC card would be the first in a trio of summer slugfests: on July 15, there will be an All Elite Wrestling card at the Saddledome, followed on Aug. 11 by a World Wrestling Entertainment Smackdown event.Tickets for the Smackdown go on sale Wed., April 5 at 10 a.m.
