WWE superstar John Cena talks about UFC King Conor McGregor 

A recent appearance by WWE superstar John Cena in the That Scene with Dan Patrick (h/t WrestlingInc.) saw the sixteen-time WWE Champion speak about UFC legend Conor McGregor. He mentioned how McGregor’s mic work is similar to that of a pro-Wrestling Promo.

Legends like John Cena have performed in Saudi Arabia

Cena was asked a question about how McGregor would do in WWE. He responded with utmost excitement that it would be fantastic and praised the Mystic Mac. Cena told on the show that he is a fan and desires to see the UFC legend perform in the WWE arena. 

He was quoted as saying:

“He’d be fantastic.

“He is what we do. What he does is a little less predictable. Our surprises are getting people to show up at random and trying to weave the choose-your-own-adventure to a different alley. His surprises are getting a few teeth knocked out or getting an operation. Not to say that doesn’t happen with us. Mistakes happen with us. But in his profession, it is not a mistake. It’s a certainty.”

He also went on to say that he was a fan of the Irishman:
