5. Paul Heyman Talks About The Scenario Of Conor McGregor Coming To WWE & The WWE Wrestlers Not Liking It

During an interview with Yahoo, Paul Heyman was asked about UFC’s top star Conor McGregor possibly coming to WWE and the possibility of the WWE locker room not open to that idea. Below is what Heyman said:

“Who cares if the locker room would embrace Conor McGregor. If Conor McGregor can be a revenue driver for WWE, if he can sell network subscriptions or if he can sell thousands and tens of thousands of tickets, if he can move millions of T-shirts, who cares if anybody in the locker room likes it or doesn’t like it.

They just have to learn how to accept it or draw more money than Conor McGregor so they have the leverage to say, “I don’t want that guy in my locker room.”

Until they can drive the revenue a Conor McGregor drives, then perhaps they should get used to the fact that people like that will always get offers to come in and, as the old saying goes, draw money.”
