— UFC fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov recently tweeted that he was contacted by WWE and he teased stepping into the ring for a wrestling match. However, a WWE source indicated that this is absolutely not true at all and that WWE has no interest in Nurmagomedov at this time. Furthermore, Nurmagomedov would be under contract to UFC and wouldn’t be able to work anywhere else without their support.
— While no one will say it publicly, several WWE wrestlers are not eager at traveling to Saudi Arabia for the upcoming Crown Jewel event. Many were already not interested in going even before all the current media backlash began but the company has strictly forbidden talent from making any negative comments towards Saudi Arabia or any of the events so don’t expect anyone to voice their true opinions on the matter anytime soon.
