Jorge Masvidal to AEW?


Jorge Masvidal, one of the biggest names in mixed martial arts (MMA), recently announced his retirement from the sport following his loss to Gilbert Burns at UFC 287. However, some fans are wondering if Masvidal should consider stepping into the world of professional wrestling and making a few appearances in All Elite Wrestling (AEW).

Now that Masvidal has announced his retirement from MMA, some fans are suggesting that he should give wrestling a try. After all, he has the charisma and star power that would make him a natural fit in the world of professional wrestling. Masvidal previously appeared for AEW in a non-wrestling role at Grand Slam 2021.


But could Masvidal actually make the transition from MMA to wrestling? It's certainly not unheard of. Several MMA fighters, including Ronda Rousey and Shayne Baszler, have successfully made the jump to wrestling in recent years.

And Masvidal has already shown that he has the chops to be a successful wrestling personality. His appearance at Grand Slam was met with enthusiastic cheers from the crowd, and he seems to have a natural flair for entertaining.


Of course, there are some challenges that Masvidal would have to overcome if he were to pursue a career in wrestling. Wrestling requires a different skill set than MMA, and it can take time to learn the ins and outs of the business.

But if Masvidal is willing to put in the work, there's no reason why he couldn't make a splash in wrestling. AEW has shown that it's willing to take chances on outside talent, and Masvidal could bring a new level of excitement to the promotion.

Book This Episode 1: The Summer of Punk Rebooked Prelude

     Let’s go back to 2011, specifically June of 2011. CM Punk’s contract is expiring soon and he’s getting ready to have the biggest run of his career. On June 27th, 2011 CM Punk would cut a promo that would have the wrestling world buzzing for years to come. In his promo, Punk said that his contract expired next month and that he, the Number One Contender, would be leaving  WWE with the WWE Championship. He’d also go onto take shots at not only his opponent the following month, John Cena but other icons in the history of WWE. Whether employed by the company or not. He’d also tease defending his WWE Championship in Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling. Essentially he’d be a travelling World Champion, ala the territory days. Well, CM Punk did win the WWE Championship the next month from John Cena at Money in the Bank. However, what would happen after would disappoint wrestling fans more than anything else that’s happened in years.       How t...

If John Cena Beats Cody Rhodes he Technically Becomes an 18-Time World Champion

  John Cena won the Elimination Chamber on Saturday night and secured an Undisputed WWE Championship match against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania this April. What followed was a shocking heel turn that fans have wanted for years. That’s not what I’m talking about here. We’re talking about how John Cena will technically become an 18-time World Champion if he beats Cody Rhodes. That would put him two ahead of Ric Flair.  Ever since Roman Reigns beat Brock Lesnar to unify the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship. From that point on, WWE recognized Roman as having two Championship reigns. With the Universal Championship and with the WWE Championship. Same with Cody Rhodes when he beat Reigns for the Undisputed Championship at last year’s WresteMania. If you look at WWE’s website it shows two concurrent reigns for Cody.  If Cena beats Cody it’s always possible that WWE in the future recognizes this as one World Title reign instead of two. There’s a few of Flair’s reign...

Bobby Lashley Issues Warning to Jon Moxley

Bobby Lashley debuted in All Elite Wrestling on October 30th last year, rejoining his former WWE stablemates MVP and Shelton Benjamin, forming The Hurt Syndicate. Lashley and The Hurt Syndicate are one of the hottest acts in AEW right now with Lashley and Benjamin winning the World Tag Team Titles last month. It’s inevitable that Bobby Lashley will get a World Championship shot at some point. He’s very over right now and a legit main event talent.  Lashley gave a warning to AEW World Champion Jon Moxley when speaking to the Sporting Tribune . Lashley said it’s only a matter of time till they face off but he’s focused on his tag team right now. Lashley said that when Jon Moxley sees him in the locker room, he stays clear of him.  Despite being cheered like a babyface, Bobby Lashley is a heel and Jon Moxley is also a heel so I don’t see them facing off soon. But I like the idea of a Moxley/Lashley match whether it’s for the Title or not. Saying that, I’d also be a fan of Bo...
