“Throwing Daniel Cormier’s A** Over”: Ex- UFC Champion Makes Ambitious Royal Rumble Plan to Catch Joe Rogan’s Eyes

For WWE fans all over the world, it is the biggest time of the year—the time of the Royal Rumble. It is indeed a grand event for the WWE community, where the wrestlers fight against each other at the time of the annual match. For WWE followers, the Royal Rumble is an official announcement of WrestleMania, the greatest event of the year.

However, what if there is a Royal Rumble for the UFC? It would be difficult to say the name of a possible winner considering the long list of UFC fighters we have. Nonetheless, the former two-division champion is very confident about winning the event if there is one for UFC fighters. He not only wants the big win but also wants to make sure that the 55-year-old UFC color commentator, Joe Rogan, notices him as the greatest combat athlete of all time.

Henry Cejudo aims at Joe Rogan and Daniel Cormier

‘UFC on BT Sport’ took to their Twitter handle to ask the audience who they think will win if there is a Royal Rumble for the UFC fighter. They posted a graphic with the names of thirty UFC fighters along with the question. There were also photos of some of the present-day greatest fighters. Henry Cejudo reacted to the photo immediately.

He retweeted the post, giving an answer to the question. The answer is obvious, he would win the fight. He wrote I‘m going to start to finish like @reymysterio in ’06, and throwing @dc_mma‘s a** over the top rope in the finals!  And then maybe @joerogan will finally recognize me as greatest combat athlete of all time! #RoyalRumble

The surprising factor of the tweet is that Cejudo not only wants to perform and win like Rey Mysterio, who won the Royal Rumble in 2006, but he also wants to eject Daniel Cormier from the event. The messenger didn’t forget to mock Joe Rogan, who openly talks about his opinions on various stars.
