“F***ing me for no reason,” Dana White on potential crossover of UFC fighters to WWE now that Vince McMahon isn’t bugging him around

To set the record straight, former contemporaries-turned-business partners Vince McMahon and Dana White didn’t see eye to eye for a long time. In fact, the UFC President has accused McMahon of incessantly troubling him for no reason in the past. They seemed to have buried the hatchet when Endeavor merged both WWE and the UFC under its umbrella last year. However, now Vince is not around anymore.

Which is why Dana White didn’t crumble while claiming that he doesn’t have a problem sending some of his UFC fighters over to WWE for cameo appearances down the road. White affirmed that there are a handful of people over there at the UFC who’ve dreamed of competing in WWE. Further, the 54-year-old executive went on to say that he didn’t have a problem with such aspirations even when McMahon was in-charge of operations at WWE.

The Power Slap owner asserted that Vince McMahon was “consistently f***ing me for no reason” back then. However, now that the 78-year-old ill-famed tycoon doesn’t hold the keys to the kingdom anymore, he’d absolutely entertain the crossovers between WWE and UFC. A few months ago, on Monday Night Raw, the fans caught their first glimpses of what the forbidden door left wide open could do.

Dana White says he’s okay with Derrick Lewis and fighters making WWE appearances:

I didn’t have a problem with that when Vince was consistently f*cking me for no reason and now that’s not the case anymore, obviously I’d absolutely do it.

Michael Chandler ended up calling out Conor McGregor. Recently, Derrick Lewis revealed that he’s been in talks with WWE for months now. He alluded to leverage WWE HOF’er Rikishi‘s maneuver, the Stinkface, as The Black Beast is someone who loves taking down his shorts. Last night in St. Louis, Lewis knocked out Rodrigo Nascimento in the third round to claim a thumping victory over the Brazilian fighter.

Dana White has spilled the beans on WWE PLEs moving back to Sundays

Coming out of UFC Fight Night: St. Louis, one of the biggest developments saw Dana White basically confirm that WWE PLEs are close to reverting back to their original slots on Sunday. The Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO said that fans will get to see Power Slap on Fridays, UFC events on Saturdays, and WWE on Sundays.

White’s promulgation at the post-show media scrum didn’t come off well. Most of the fans believe that they’d still prefer Saturday over Sunday for a WWE PLE. Even if the premium live events do move back to what they were about a year or two ago, it could be on certain weekends.

“You’re gonna see Friday, Power Slap. Saturday, UFC. And Sunday, WWE. You’ll start seeing that stuff too.”

It would make a whole lot of sense for WWE and the UFC to stage back-to-back programming in the same venue. Speaking of last night’s UFC event, St. Louis native and 14-time World Champion Randy Orton also marked his presence.
