Conor McGregor Cryptically Replies to Finn Balor's Tweet: No More Mr. Nice Guy
February 27, 2021
Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor responded to a tweet from fellow Irishman and WWE Superstar Finn Balor on Friday, perhaps hinting at an appearance in the wrestling ring.
WWE Executive Vice President Triple H appears ready to welcome McGregor with open arms:
Balor has extended an invitation to the WWE ring before, responding to McGregor's MMA retirement tweet in 2019 as follows:
Balor also once spoke with Sports Illustrated in 2017 and said McGregor would be a "natural fit" in the WWE.
We'll see if anything comes of this interaction. For now, McGregor is ranked as the No. 6 lightweight contender in the UFC, while Finn Balor is enjoying his second reign as the WWE NXT champion.
