UFC star Paige VanZant has expressed interest in a career with the WWE once she’s done competing in MMA. Although VanZant is still focused on her professional mixed martial arts career, she did bring up in a recent interview with MMA Weekly that she spoke with WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon while attending global tech conference Web Summit.
“I’m not ready to leave the UFC just yet,” said VanZant. “I love being a professional fighter and I still have a long career ahead of me. I also think the WWE is an amazing organization and it’s a very athletic entertainment industry which would suit me. There’s probably huge potential for a crossover down the line and of course I’m a big fan of what they do, so it would be great to be a part of. I got the opportunity to talk to Stephanie for a little bit on Tuesday which was great.”
