“I don’t know. They [UFC] should’ve platformed our own combatants,” he claimed. “Put them next to those guys. Put our guys next to those guys, what, so who the f**k are you? What’s up? Let or not it’s seen by the general public, after which we’d have something to look ahead to on our side. Bouts to look ahead to, guys to look ahead to. Remember, these guys crashed here and there. It builds the story.”
Will Conor McGregor and Roman Reigns face in WWE?
It’s unknown if the vocal barbs will lead to a WWE confrontation between the 2. They previously exchanged words on social media when McGregor claimed that he could “slap the top off your entire roster. And twice on Sundays,” talking about WWE. Nonetheless, the “Tribal Chief” clapped back, saying, “[You’re] the dimensions of my leg. Shut up.”
Then, after an image was posted of Reigns on the UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House, McGregor responded by asking, “Who?”
If there’s one thing that WWE has taught fans, it’s to never say never. As McGregor’s MMA profession winds down, there may be at all times a probability he tries his hand at skilled wrestling after he retires.
McGregor vs. Reigns can be a marquee feud. Reigns has previously placed on a terrific match with a star wrestler, Logan Paul. He can also be the reigning World Heavyweight Champion, defeating former UFC star CM Punk at WrestleMania 42 to win it. He has defended it twice against Jacob Fatu since his reign began.
