Following WrestleMania 39 it was announced that Endeavor will acquire WWE and that WWE will merge with UFC to form one publicly traded company. After the announcement was made there was a lot of talk about social media regarding potential dream matches involving WWE and UFC stars, and Dolph Ziggler wasted no time calling out Conor McGregor.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING #WrestleMania

TMZ recently asked Ziggler about a potential fight with Conor McGregor, and the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion suggested that he would like to face off against McGregor in a series of matches culminating at WrestleMania.
“Yeah, WWE and UFC, and he’s called us out a couple of times, so I appreciate that, and I can go a little bit, so I would still do it. Make it a best-of-three, octagon, boxing match, wrestling, fighting, WWE. Then set it all up for the [best-of-three] at WrestleMania. I mean, that’s just where the money is, but not everybody can go and back it up, but some of us can.”
Conor McGregor has teased potential involvement with WWE for years, but so far he has yet to work with the company. Do you want to see Conor McGregor vs. Dolph Ziggler? Sound off in the comments below.
