Ralek Gracie is pushing hard for his latest project The Foundation. His hope is that this venture will end up redeeming him to community. Truth be told The Foundation – currently priced at 1.99$ per episode has very little chance of redeeming his narrative even though it is a love letter to bjj.

In a fresh new video Ralek explains he has no regrets: ” I was villanized in a way. There was a couple instances where like  in the media and in spotlight and through that process Eddie Bravo came out and said “Oh you sabotaged my event.”. That’s just Eddie Bravo being being a vampire trying to take energy from Metamoris which he was extremely jealous of at the time. And it’s just a reality. He’s calling me complaining about s**t and I don’t even want to bring up private conversations but then like it’s hilarious. And the point is I’m now the villain. And people love villains – they love it and I’m falling into the story of what people mean into jiu jitsu. “

Ralek added:

“The athletes that got paid by us know they got paid way more than they should’ve been paid because I was there saying let’s try to get these guys like really hyped let’s give them the support they need. Like nobody was getting paid in jiu jitsu when Metamoris started. “

From there Gracie details where his failure stemmed from:

“I move too fast, I gave too much, and I wasn’t patient enough and I wasn’t conservative enough I didn’t negotiate enough. I was too open to have my sharks running my business I negotiated with everybody and I gave too much of the business away. “
