List of WEC bonus award recipients

WEC Bonus Awards are three separate cash bonuses usually awarded to four fighters after each WEC event, based on internal decision by WEC management. More/fewer bonuses have been awarded at some events, especially when no knockouts or submissions occurred.

  • Knockout of the Night is awarded to the fighter with the most impressive knockout/technical knockout.[2]
  • Submission of the Night is awarded to the fighter with the most impressive submission.[3]
