Conor McGregor was one of the first UFC stars to take to social media after CNBC dropped a report that the UFC’s parent company, Endeavor, is on the verge of a $9.3 billion-dollar deal that will see the purchase of WWE, followed by a merger with the UFC. McGregor, a two-time former UFC Champion who has interacted with WWE stars numerous times on social media, wrote, “Congrats to the @ufc now worth a cool Proper $12bn. Wow! Endeavor bout to scoop the @WWE now also. Incredible. What a powerhouse!”

McGregor then posted a photoshopped image of himself holding both the WWE and UFC Championships. This prompted a response from Paul Heyman — “(Conor McGregor) is a (Roman Reigns) wannabe!!!” The former champ wrote back, “Careful Grampa. I’ll show up and break your jaw in 3 places.”
