Looks like ever since Jake Hager quit Vince McMahon’s company, he found his real footing in the world of combat sports. Not everyone can be a well-versed mixed martial artist and be an active member in a wrestling promotion at the same time. And it looks like former UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones took notice of that.
Jake Hager, fka Jack Swagger in WWE is currently signed with Tony Khan’s AEW where he wrestles alongside a faction called -The Inner Circle.
However, before coming to AEW, Hager excelled in MMA, where he was signed to Bellator MMA in the heavyweight division. Ever since making the transition, Hager stands as an undefeated Bellator heavyweight superstar.
