Mike O’Hearn hints at MMA preference

Continuing his tradition of having ask-me-anything sessions with his fans, O’Hearn held a similar session the other day on his Instagram stories. His followers jumped at the chance of the opportunity to ask questions to O’Hearn. While the questions ranged from the best way to start the gym and even O’Hearn’s favorite car, one fan wanted to know what the bodybuilder would prefer in terms of pro wrestling.

A curious fan asked “AEW or WWE?”. To this interesting question, O’Hearn’s response was something different. He replied with a GIF that read “UFC Fight Pass” showcasing his preference for the elite MMA promotion. Despite hinting at the fact that he prefers UFC over WWE or AEW, the seven-time Fitness Model of the Year has a history with the WWE, the mammoth pro wrestling promotion.

In the past, Mike O’Hearn had revealed how he almost become a part of the WWE ring and signed for them.

In a YouTube short, O’Hearn had talked about how he had almost started walking down the path of becoming a pro wrestler. “Uh, in 92, which is funny because it was the same year Billy signed. Shane McMahon came out and had dinner with me…” he said in a podcast. The bodybuilder was apparently roped into WWE as the Gladiator character. However, the plan never worked out.
