Conor McGregor is known for his incredible success in the Octagon, but there’s no doubt quite a few people think he was born to be a WWE Superstar. Many fans have speculated about a WWE appearance, and now, betting odds suggest he could be present at WrestleMania 41.
According to the odds provided by Betideas, Conor McGregor might make a surprise appearance in Las Vegas. He recently said he wants to be the President of Ireland and has hinted at moving from UFC to wrestling. Right now, there is a 40% chance (6/4 or +150 odds) that he will attend the two-day event on April 19th and 20th.
Conor McGregor is no stranger to engaging in online feuds with WWE Superstars, notably having a heated exchange with Roman Reigns’ Special Counsel, Paul Heyman, earlier last year. Following their exchanges, Heyman issued a warning to Conor McGregor. Conor McGregor even called out Roman Reigns for a match at WWE SummerSlam back in 2023.
In addition to that, Cody Rhodes made it clear that he wanted to see Conor McGregor join WWE. He explained that WWE’s competition was different from what many expected, requiring discipline and professionalism to succeed, especially to make it to major events like WrestleMania.
“I’ll say that one person I’d love to see just dip his toes in the WWE would be Conor McGregor. We were just talking about Proper Twelve whiskey, and I think Conor should give it a try. The competition environment at WWE is different from what people might expect—it’s so much about who’s the most disciplined, the most professional, getting to the finish line, making it to a WrestleMania. Someone like him, who’s competed at the highest level in so many incredible fights, maybe it’s time to explore the more entertainment side of sports. I think he’d be great at it.“
With WrestleMania 41 taking place in Las Vegas, the chances of Conor McGregor making a surprise appearance seem higher than ever. Whether he officially signs with WWE or just makes a one-time appearance, his presence would definitely draw massive mainstream attention.
