Conor McGregor Teases Joining WWE After His UFC Career

UFC star Conor McGregor has said he would be interested in working with WWE, after his career in the Octagon has ended.

Speaking on a tour of Ukraine and Russia, the 31-year-old fighter said he already has an opponent for his January 18th fight in Las Vegas, but didn't want to name them in fear that UFC would switch them out.

When asked about his future after the UFC, McGregor said Hollywood and maybe the WWE, but admitted: "I've had a bit of beef with those guys over the years."

It's true that the Irish fighter has had a love-hate relationship with WWE, one moment badmouthing the company, and the next teasing an appearance.

McGregor's antics outside the cage may also make WWE hesitant to bring him into the company, appearing in court earlier this month for an assault charge after allegedly attacking a man in a pub.

In July 2018, McGregor pled guilty to multiple criminal charges after a violent altercation following a UFC 223 media event.
