Dubbed as the biggest UFC fight in history, Stipe Miocic vs Daniel Cormier is finally in the books. After a gruelling five round battle, Miocic put away a determined Cormier who was fighting his last bout in the octagon. As fans around the world poured their emotions on Twitter, WWE Superstars weren’t far behind.
Superstars like Rey Mysterio, Bret Hart, Dolph Ziggler, Renee Young and Dwayne Johnson were closely following this historic battle.
Probably the funniest reaction came from the master of the 619. A fan pointed out that Cormier’s fate in the fight was closely mirroring that of Rey Mysterio, particularly because of his eye being destroyed by Miocic.
