MMA fighter and UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall has expressed a keen interest in pursuing a career in professional wrestling with WWE once his time in MMA comes to an end. Aspinall’s connection to WWE was highlighted when Cody Rhodes, the Undisputed Champion, introduced him at a live event in Manchester, England.
In a recent interview with Safest Casino Sites, Aspinall shared his desire to compete in WWE, stating that it’s something he’s eager to explore in the future. He last fought at UFC 304 in July, where he achieved a first-round knockout victory over Curtis Blaydes to retain his title. Aspinall’s ambitions in wrestling reflect his passion for the sport, and he seems excited about the possibility of making that transition when the time is right. Here’s what he had to say on the topic:
Absolutely. That’s what I want to do in my post-fighting career. I’ve got my show on TNT Sports now, so I like the punditry side as well. I’m very passionate about MMA but WWE is something new and exciting for me as well. I really enjoyed it, it’s a buzz. It’s another way to get out there in front of an audience and do something not quite as dangerous, but still get the thrill. I’ve still got a lot that I want to do in my MMA career. I’m not saying that I want to hang up the gloves just yet, but I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t enjoy it. I enjoyed the whole thing.”
