This is indeed happening. . . .
For many months, Conor McGregor has been trolling athletes of the WWE roster and even calling most of them pussies. He even included Brock Lesnar and fellow UFC fighter CM Punk into the conversation, saying he’d slap the head off the entire roster.
Well, UFC President Dana White and WWE owner Vince McMahon have had a working-relationship in recent years – including allowing Brock to compete over the summer against Mark Hunt.
In a sit-down with ESPN, McGregor’s manager confirmed interest from their end, hinting that something could be in the works if World Wrestling Entertainment meets their request in contract negotiations. We’re sure this will have something to do with WrestleMania, as he’ll more than likely have a few RAW appearances before the company’s biggest event of the year.
Let us know in the comments if you think McGregor should make the full-time switch to sports entertainment and leave the realism of the octagon alone.
