There is speculation that WWE officials may have reached out to UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov after he sent out a tweet asking fans about potentially heading to WWE.
Khabib made headlines due to his post-fight brawl with Conor McGregor after their title fight at the UFC 229 pay-per-view event that saw him retain his title. Things are tense between the UFC and the champion as a result of it.
It’s possible that WWE attempts to make him a deal to come in for an appearance or this is just the latest tactic in Khabib’s plans as he recently threatened to quit UFC if the promotion releases his training partner who was also involved in the brawl.
@WWE ask me to jump inside.
