UFC fighter Conor McGregor made some comments about WWE stars during a recent UFC conference call and he referred to them as, “messed up p**sies.”
McGregor poured a little more gas on the fire this morning when he said that he would “slap the head off” the entire WWE roster.
Say what you want about Conor McGregor, but he definitely knows how to promote himself. Since he made the harsh comments about WWE stars, McGregor has been a hot topic among wrestling and MMA fans.
Former WWE announcer Jonathan Coachman commented on Conor McGregor taking a shot at the WWE roster and he pointed out that McGregor is a #classicheel and likely just trolling us all.
Remember what I always say smart dudes know what is good for business. #classicheel. @TheNotoriousMMA https://t.co/TOsat43cz0

Coming from a guy who built a career copying my persona, I expected the type of class we get from Ronda or Anderson. pic.twitter.com/iVoC0Xva5g

After Diaz finishes you again, I dare you to try guys like Dolph, Brock, or Fit.

I think McGregor could do well in the featherweight division……if the WWE had one. https://t.co/90XGpSICS9

Never show a Jack Russell a mirror. It thinks it's a majestic Irish Wolfhound. Really, just an annoying wee yapper trying to sell tickets.
