John Cena thinks that Conor McGregor would be a great fit in the WWE

05 September 2021

Former WWE champion John Cena feels that MMA Superstar Conor McGregor would be a great fit in the WWE.

Cena gave his opinion while talking with Dan Patrick on the That Scene with Dan Patrick podcast (h/t Eric Mutter of Wrestling Inc).

"He'd be fantastic. He is what we do. What he does is a little less predictable. Our surprises are getting people to show up at random, and trying to weave the choose-your-own-adventure to a different alley. His surprises are getting a few teeth knocked out or getting an operation. Not to say that doesn't happen with us, mistakes happen with us. But in his profession, it's not a mistake. It's a certainty,” Cena noted.

Cena further went on to add that he is hoping to see McGregor in the WWE soon as it is something that interests him as a wrestling fan.

"I hope because I want to see it. At my core, I'm a fan and he's interesting. He has a gravity about him. I want to see him perform,” Cena added.

McGregor had been trading social media exchanges with professional wrestlers for some time now and last February, Triple H had also noted that McGregor was welcome in the WWE.

The highest-paid athlete in the world as per Forbes, Conor McGregor’s last fight came against Dustin Poirier in the UFC and the Irishman had suffered a defeat in the match after breaking his leg. Conor is currently recovering from the injury.
