Michael Chandler discusses possibly jumping to WWE.
In February of 2024, Michael Chandler would make an appearance on WWE Monday Night RAW calling out Conor McGregor. The UFC star would not get his bout with the Irishman, but still has interest in possibly heading to WWE.
In a new interview with The Schmo at Fanatics Fest, Chandler was asked who he had bumped into at the event, noting he had talked to Triple H about a WWE contract.
"I was talking to Triple H about my WWE contract, so we're trying to make that happen."
Chandler was then asked further about his conversations with Triple H, with the UFC star noting that he wants the door to be open to him competing in WWE.
"He knows I'm a fan of WWE and him and the brand. He's obviously a fan of what I bring to the table from an entertainment standpoint, what I can do on the microphone. So it's always fun conversations. Who knows if anything is ever going to happen? But he knows I want that door to be open, and I think he wants that door to be open too. I don't know about it all, but WWE seems like a really cool transition, as well as just everything here. This is all about a bunch of high functioning individuals who have a platform, who love to continue to get after it. The brand and the platform keeps growing and impacting people is the most important thing. So whatever platform is best for me to do that, I'm gonna keep doing it."
Chandler most recently fought at UFC 314, where he would come up short against Paddy Pimblett.
