Throughout the years, we have witnessed several MMA stars go into professional wrestling and several professional wrestlers attempt their hand at MMA. Many of them anticipate a crossover between the two titans of their respective industries—WWE and UFC—since they are both governed by TKO.
When questioned about the same subject, World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins responded and made some observations regarding UFC celebrities. In a recent interview, Seth Rollins talked about a possible TKO crossover between the UFC and WWE. Rollins spoke with Mark Raimondi of ESPN.
In response, Seth Rollins stated, Not at all. They lack the endurance for it. They don’t quarrel every weekend. This championship is worldwide. It travels throughout. It is similar to Biloxi. They cater to a certain degree, especially the top stars over there.
You fight maybe once or twice a year, which is fine; that’s their style and what works for them. Do you fight three times a year? You’re nuts. It’s a demanding industry to fight more than 100 times a year, build all those cities, and continue to train and handle all the media. Regarding Ronda Rousey, Seth Rollins:
“It was difficult for Ronda Rousey, but I don’t want to criticize her because I adore her and I think she did a great job for our business, women in our industry, and the fight industry in general. Even though she gave it her all, she struggled. Though it’s difficult, I’d love for someone to come over and give it a try if you think you can hang out.
While on the go, Rollins made fun of CM Punk’s UFC career by stating, “I’ll confront them all.” It doesn’t concern me. Give it a shot. What they do is beyond me. I could walk in there and in two seconds get choked out and knocked out.
I would perform better than Punk [CM Punk], but I would probably still come up short. They are also unable to come and perform our tasks. Although they are under the same umbrella, they are two very distinct universes.
