Despite a match never coming to pass in the UFC, it seems that Cris Cyborg would be willing to fight Ronda Rousey in WWE.
TMZ recently caught up with Cyborg and questioned her on the possibility of a WWE career in the future. The featherweight champion stated that it’s not something she’s planning for but seemed open to the idea.
"You know some fans ask me that like, 'how crazy would it be to fight Ronda Rousey in WWE?'" Cyborg said. "To watch the fight that never happened. I say maybe, you know. It's not something I have planned but if it's something the fans would like to watch. I didn't train for that, but I think it would be great."
She commented on the parallels between WWE and the world of MMA, while emphasizing the acting involved in professional wrestling and said
"it would be cool" to face Rousey in WWE.
"It's like acting more," Cyborg said of the difference between WWE and UFC. "It's very different too because when you're fighting [in UFC] when somebody punches you have to show like you don't feel anything. In WWE when someone punches you, you have to act like you're hurt. It's different, very different."
