In news that shouldn't surprise anyone (it's 2016, the year of the unexpected after all) Conor McGregor is considering a move to WWE.

Is it just me who thinks that would be awesome? He's already a larger-than-life character so he wouldn't even need to act. Just literally be himself.
Anyway after an episode of podcast, Five Rounds, Audie Attar (McGregor's agent) told us all what we secretly want to hear. He said: "I think it's all about business, man.
"If [WWE] is going to come with an offer, we are willing to entertain it. We are here. Have their people call his people - which is me. We can have a conversation."
McGregor has pissed off WWE quite a few times. Remember that time he said they were all a bunch of 'pussies'? It all happened after CM Punk's debut at UFC 203. Sadly, the first fight didn't last very long, with the former-WWE superstar lasting a mere 134 seconds against Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt Mickey Gall.

Weirdly, McGregor stuck up for Punk, telling TMZ: "Fair play to him because he got in there and fought.
"Not a lot of people do. Not a lot of people have the balls to make that walk. So fair play. He got his ass whooped. God bless, but he got his ass whooped."

Continuing, he said: "The new age are dweebs. Let's be honest here. They are absolute dweebs. The main guy, John Cena, he's 40 years of age and he's running around in a luminous orange t-shirt and a head band.
"We can see him right there. He's a big, fat, 40-year-old failed Mr. Olympia motherfucker."
Has this all been a lead up to his switch over?
Take this tweet, for example:
All we can do is wait and see...
