WWE champ ‘irked’ by Jon Jones’ pro-wrestling talk: ‘People think that this is a cakewalk’

Jon Jones recently revealed his plans to crossover into the WWE. For the UFC light heavyweight champion, it is an “inevitable” move to make since he sees a similarity between pro-wrestling and mixed martial arts.

“I have the size and athleticism and the following to transition over really well. To get the opportunity to just show up, even as a special guest, would be a dream come true,” he said.

These comments got to RAW Women’s champion Becky Lynch, who admitted she wasn’t pleased by them.
