UFC fighter Colby Covington comments on a possible career in WWE
In an interview with SI.com, UFC fighter Colby Covington commented on a possible run with WWE after his MMA career is over…
“I’d love to cross over and come into the WWE. But I love being a UFC fighter. I love fighting; it’s my passion and what I was born and put on this earth to do. After my career with the UFC is done, WWE is something I’d love to dabble in.”
At the UFC 272 PPV event in Las Vegas, Covington made his entrance to Kurt Angle’s WWE theme song “Medal” and there were fans that did the “You Suck” chants.
