Two of UFC’s top champions made their presence felt at WWE Raw this week.
UFC welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena and UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski were spotted in attendance and were even acknowledged on commentary by Michael Cole during the broadcast.
The two fighters weren’t just watching from the crowd. They also met with WWE’s Chief Content Officer Triple H ahead of the event.
For Jack Della Maddalena, the timing couldn’t be bigger. He’s preparing for one of the toughest fights of his career, as he’s scheduled to face Islam Makhachev at UFC 322 in November. As for Alexander Volkanovski, he’s riding high after capturing the vacant featherweight championship back in April, cementing his place once again at the top of his division.
Seeing both men at Raw is another reminder of how close UFC and WWE are now, with stars from both promotions crossing paths more than ever. Fans are already speculating about whether this could eventually lead to some on-screen involvement in WWE.
