The unification of the UFC and WWE under TKO Holdings shocked several fans. But it has also facilitated the appearance of UFC stars in WWE. Recently, the noted Michael Chandler made a surprising appearance at an episode of WWE RAW. But the former UFC champ-champ Daniel Cormier appeared on an ESPN MMA YouTube video with the noted Pat McAfee, where he revealed his excitement about the upcoming WWE Wrestlemania 40. ‘DC’s’ words also indicated that he might have an official role to play at the Wrestlemania 40.
Most fans may have witnessed Cormier on the stage of WWE as well. He appeared on the post WrestleMania 39 show with the noted ESPN reporter, Marc Raimondi and the famed WWE star, Becky Lynch. In the recent video, Cormier highlighted another incident where he spoke about the WWE authorities putting him in a referee’s shirt once.
But the Louisiana native also revealed that he will be fulfilling a similar role for WrestleMania 40, as he had during Wrestlemania 39. After being asked by McAfee about his Wrestlemania plans, Cormier replied,
“I’m just interviewing people and I’m taking their sights. And then I’m doing the post-show, I’m taking their sights”
McAfee went on to question ‘DC’ whether he will get inside the WWE ring during his WrestleMania 40 appearance. This is where Cormier disclosed the incident of the WWE authorities, putting him in a referee’s shirt. However, ‘DC’ also talked about a similarity between him and the noted NBA legend Michael Jordan, at a point in the video.
Michael Jordan and Daniel Cormier have a similar choice of second favorite sport
Fans of the noted NBA legend, Michael Jordan, may already know about his affinity towards the sport of Golf. Despite being one of the most noted basketball players in the history of the sport, Jordan transitioned to professional golf after his NBA career. Earlier in the video, Cormier expressed a similar interest in golfing. Despite having a packed schedule, ‘DC’ opts to play golf after “1:00 am”.
To be more specific, Comier opts to go for a game of golf after ending his hours-long job as a commentator on UFC events. All in all, it won’t be wrong to say that this ESPN MMA video details the various areas where Cormier is interested in apart from the UFC, whether it’s Golf or the WWE.
