Michael Bisping names UFC superstar as a 'natural fit' for WWE

Michael Bisping names UFC superstar as a 'natural fit' for WWEDAZN

Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping believes Conor McGregor would be a perfect fit when it comes to featuring in the WWE. 

With McGregor's colourful personality, he is likely to be someone who would thrive in the world of professional wrestling and with a huge fanbase at his disposal, there is the possibility of a new audience being exposed to the sport. 

"I can see Conor in the WWE, it's all the same company these days. He's a massive star," Bisping told Betway

"So if people want to watch him in MMA, they'll want to watch him in the WWE, I think that's a safe bet for him as well.

"You don't want to take punches to the head forever. He's a born entertainer. I can see that as a very natural fit."

If McGregor did decide to make the switch to WWE, he would be following in the footsteps of UFC legend Ronda Rousey who made the switch in 2017 and since then has become one of the company's biggest stars, and won multiple titles in the process.
