UFC superstar Conor McGregor is excited about the prospect of competing in the WWE following reports about an imminent merger.sources, Vince McMahon’s professional wrestling promotion is in advanced talks to be sold to Ari Emanuel’s Endeavor Group, the parent company of UFC.The deal is expected to be announced imminently and will see WWE and UFC form a new publicly traded company, but they will continue to operate as two separate sporting institutions.
Endeavor, who value WWE at $9.3 billion, will own 51% of the new combat sports and entertainment company, while WWE shareholders would get 49%. The deal will end WWE’s decades-old status as a family-run business. Vince McMahon’s father founded the company in the middle of the 20th century before selling it to his son in 1982 who has since made it into a global phenomenon.
Not everyone took McGregor’s potential foray into the world of professional wrestling well and WWE legend Paul Heyman made his feelings about the Irihsman clear with his response to the picture.
Can't wait for him to get the 619
Brock Vs Conor McGregor
Perfect for Conor, he can just pop off to WWE after his UFC days are done, perfect for the WWE too
Sick of getting his leading leg kicked out and getting beat in UFC so trying his hand at Pantomime scripted fighting.
