UFC’s Colby Covington says he’ll ‘probably’ move to WWE in 2021

Colby Covington’s UFC career may soon be coming to an end.

As one of the most hated fighters on the UFC roster, ‘Chaos’ would like to try his hand as a heel in the world of professional wrestling, telling What The Heck in a recent interview that he could move to the WWE as early as 2021.

“My thing is I want to go to WWE and make wrestling real again,” Covington said, per MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee. “I want people to get behind it and think that it’s real. You ain’t going off the top rope on me because I’ll take you out with a double leg, you ain’t gonna get up there.
