All these people tweeting responses to WWE wrestler replies to McGregor with stuff like "YES OMG YOU ARE THE KING"...ugh. Can practically hear them jacking off through the screen.

I have never been more embarrassed for liking Pro Wrestling than seeing so many adult men respond "UH YEAH, BUT YOU ARE SHORT" to someone that would beat their asses, legitimately. THE ONLY MAN employed by the WWE that can talk and probably back his shit up, is Mix Martial Artist and undefeated shoot champion, Hunicara.

No commission would let the fight happen.

Sin Cara might be the only guy on the roster that could make 145.

Flair is calling McGregor out for stealing his gimmick. Don't really know what gimmick he's stolen, dressing in suits and being confident?

Meanwhile Ric still silent about the gimmicks he's stolen

See, this is why I said there need to be subsections in Carnies voting. If you're just going for a straight up Carny of the Year, there's so much shit from every angle it'd take 3 months to narrow down to the top 100 choices. Ric is definitely top 3 at least for Old Carny of the Year by default at this point

OKay having actually checked the amount of responses to Conor from WWE people I am now on the "this is cringy as fuck" side.

Embarrassing.

I like to imagine other members of the roster who have yet to say anything hovered over their phones typing and then furiously erasing potential tweet responses to make to McGregor because they want so badly to have the perfect quip.

As awful as it is to think and say this, I feel sometimes it is better some of the wrestlers I loved as a kid/teen died before they could grow up to be bitter ass drunks and shatter any good feelings I had about them.

I guess fading into obscurity is also better than desperately trying to stay relevant.

If Hunter hasn't said anything, I think it's all a show and nothing more. He's probably sitting back laughing right now, hell they probably told everyone to respond to it so everyone can start talking about it.

There's a reason "never meet your heroes" is a popular phrase regarding wrestlers.

Crobin is 6'8 270-300 right now.

Conor is 5'8" and walks around at 167-175 right now.

Corbin has some boxing experience but Conor is way better on the ground and in his striking game.

Somebody like Corbin would be better off trying to bumrush Conor and try to use his mass to ground and pound him. Corbin could try to turn it into a striking contest but I'm not sure I like the odds of a boxer when dealing with Kicks when he's not used to it.

Hunter has a bodyguard with him at all times and has banned refs from counting if somebody tries to roll him up.

Clearly none of the McMahon's run their own Twitter, I am sure once the team of writers come up with a snappy comeback in 140 chars they will be all over it.

And punch him though Conor would most likely try to pull Corbin close to him so Corbin might only be able to get some elbows in.

If it was a street fight Corbin could get some hard knees in on the ground.

Having an extra 100 lbs would help him a ton.

What even caused Ric to just randomly defend Dolph? I didn't McGregor or anyone say anything about him.

Or maybe that's the issue...

Can't exactly say the WWE champ is a shooter.

WWE needs to have it like the AWA or like in onld England where you had to know hot to shoot to be the champ.
