Further citing the example of Brock Lesnar, the -year-old added, “It’d be very hard for many other guys to come over here and be that successful.” White went on to cite Ronda Rousey, stating, “But, like Ronda[Rousey], when she went to the WWE, she’s obviously talented enough to do it. And I think, if those scenarios are still there, where somebody’s talented enough to actually go there. Because that isn’t easy to do either.”

He then added, “If you have a scenario where somebody is that good and could go over to the WWE, it’s gonna happen.

On that note, the possibility of seeing the Irishman in WWE is intriguing. He recently shared a picture of himself and Ronda Rousey on his Instagram story, which could mean any possibility. Hinting at an appearance in the WWE, perhaps? We never know. Having said that, McGregor has already found himself in hot water with a WWE biggie.
