Conor McGregor’s name is undoubtedly at the top of the list when people use the names of various titans in the world of mixed martial arts to characterize the sport. The 35-year-old has proved his mettle in the octagon on numerous occasions, as evidenced by his accomplishment of capturing titles in two divisions.

It appears that ‘The Mystic Mac,’ who has been absent from the sport for some time, may enter the squared circle. Given a prominent RAW star’s recent remarks about him, it looks like a possible scenario. However, what was stated by the Raw wrestler? Now let’s investigate.

The WWE superstar Jey Uso is all set for his WarGames match. However, he tended to media duties first and appeared in an interview with Billboard. But when he mentioned ‘The Notorious’ Conor McGregor, combat sports fans across the world sat up in notice. Well, Jey was asked about the entertainer he was looking forward to seeing in the WWE after Logan Paul and Bad Bunny. Responding to that, he expressed why he wants to see somebody like McGregor enter the WWE.

He said, “First one that comes to mind is Conor McGregor. He’s kinda been tip-toeing around us a little bit. He’s had interactions with a couple of us, but never fully got in here. I’d like to see what he’s about.” It surely won’t be new for the fans if an athlete from a different domain enters WWE. Nevertheless, Jey continued, “I love Shaquille O’Neal, so I personally think about LeBron James and I know he’s a huge fan. Let’s run it. They can all catch this Superkick though. Sexyy Red can get her ass Superkicked too!”.

Thus, Shaquille O’Neal and Lebron James are also the ones that Jey Uso wants to see in WWE. However, a guy like O’Neal has stepped foot inside the WWE ring before, but it will be interesting to see if McGregor gets himself inside the ring in the future. Moreover, his entry into a different realm of combat sports is not a new experience for the 35-year-old.

The Irishman has traversed the combat sports world with his earlier foray into boxing

Conor McGregor has always been a highly scrutinized individual. Especially during his famous boxing battle with Floyd Mayweather, which was billed as The Money Fight and The Biggest Fight in Combat Sports History. The boxing bout took place at the T Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, and was a light middleweight bout. With twelve rounds planned, it had the second-highest pay-per-view buying rate in history—only surpassed by Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. The record certainly shows the grandiosity of both bigwigs.

However, it was eventually a sad day for a guy like McGregor since he had to suffer a loss at the hands of Mayweather by a technical knockout. Moreover, Mayweather extended his winning streak to 50 matches with this victory.
