WEC 43: Cerrone vs. Henderson is scheduled to take place on October 10, 2009 at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas.
The main event was originally expected to be WEC Lightweight Championship bout between current champion Jamie Varner and challenger Donald Cerrone. This was to be a rematch of their bout at WEC 38 which ended in a controversial technical split decision, but Varner was deemed medically unable to return to competition. Instead, the WEC will have Cerrone face Ben Henderson, for the WEC Interim Lightweight Championship, with the winner slated to fight Varner in a title unification bout when and if he is medically cleared. The event was scheduled to take place on September 2, 2009 at the Covelli Centre in Youngstown, Ohio. However, due to headline Ben Henderson suffering an injury, the event was later rescheduled.
