5. Conor McGregor Turns Down A Big Money Offer From WWE
As we noted before, WWE wanted a top UFC star to appear at WrestleMania 33. The choices were former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey and current UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor.
But with Rousey’s devastating loss at UFC 207, WWE officials were currently more interested in “The Notorious” Conor McGregor to appear at the company’s mega event.
However, The Sun is reporting that McGregor has declined WWE’s offer, despite big money being offered.
Below is what McGregor posted on Instagram:
I’M SO MADE! HEADING TO DO A Q AND A IN FRONT OF 5000 FANS! YOU READ THAT RIGHT. THAT’S MORE THAN UFC ATTENDANCE TONIGHT. AND IT’S ON PPV. FU*K THE UFC. FU*K FLOYD. FU*K BOXING. FU*K THE WWE. FU*K HOLLYWOOD. AND FU*K YOU TOO PAY ME.
