Israel Adesanya made his UFC 276 entrance to The Undertaker’s music with an urn and a hat before beating Jared Cannonier to retain his Middleweight Title.
Following the event, Adesanya discussed the possibility of him wrestling in WWE while speaking with BT Sport. Here are highlights:
Possible future in WWE:
“Definitely, that’s something I’ll try my hand at later on. Just for fun. I’m not saying it’s going to be a full-time job, but I’m definitely going to jump in the WWE or something along that line, just for the entertainment factor. I grew up, jumping off the couch, broke my arm doing shooting stars.”
His entrance at UFC 276:
“Tuesday was the day I came up with that, just pondering. I didn’t realize the McMahons were in the house, that was kind of cool. Triple H too. I’m a kid who grew up in the Attitude Era. Wednesday nights, during wrestling, I play those tracks like the Batista entrance, Stone Cold entrance, just to get the mood while we wrestle, going into the trenches. Even the Undertaker’s theme. It comes to me. I let these things come to me, just for the show.”
