Is Conor McGregor Heading For WWE After Retirement?

Is Conor McGregor Heading For WWE After Retirement?

McGregor vs Brock Lesnar we need to see!

Partially because we need Conor McGregor to be in sport otherwise we'd have nothing left to write about and partially because Conor McGregor and The Rock cutting a promo in the ring together at Wrestlemania 33 is something we have to see we want to believe there's a chance the 'former' UFC star will head to WWE next.

Of course there's still question mark over whether or not McGregor, still the UFC featherweight champion, is actually retiring from MMA but that's what he's claimed and with him being pulled out of UFC 200 we can't go about ruling it out.

After announcing his retirement on Twitter last night WWE star Becky Lynch, the Irish lass kicker, tried to persuade her fellow countryman to join Vince McMahon's sports entertainment empire

And whilst that was happening McGregor wasn't so much adding fuel to the fire as dousing them with kerosene whilst Triple H's entrance music "The Game" played in the background, the Undertaker's druids lurked ominously in the background and he shouted "wooo" dressed in Ric Flair's infamous robes by following four very important WWE accounts almost as soon as he announced his retirement

If Vinnie Mac isn't currently putting together a mega deal to the UFC's most marketable personality for him to fight Brock Lesnar at some point then the man who was once shaved live at Wrestlemania by Donald Trump is missing a trick in his older age.

Come on guys lets make this happen, McGregor vs Paul Heyman on the mic leading up to a match against the Beast Incarnate just has to happen!
