UFC Middleweight Champions Israel Adesanya was a guest on a recent edition of the MMA Hour. Helwani advertised the interview on social media, which prompted Paul Heyman to tell Helwani to have Adesanya “ACKNOWLEDGE THE TRIBAL CHIEF”. Adesanya has mentioned an interest in appearing in WWE at some point, though there is nothing to suggest that any crossover is being planned.

Reigns is a monster in his own right. Check out who might be waiting on Adesanya:

Opinion: While I don’t think this is going to be the kind of thing that results in an appearance from Adesanya, there is something to be said about having Heyman mention Reigns in relation to him. It can be interesting to see another sport’s stars coming in for an appearance and Adesanya does seem intrigued by the idea. Maybe this is Heyman just having fun, and he seems to have done just that.

What do you think of the situation? Which other sport produces the best wrestlers? Let us know in the comments below.
