On Wednesday, UFC fighter Fabricio Werdum told MMAFighting.com that he was meeting with a WWE rep in San Diego later this week as he was interested in working for both WWE and UFC at the same time.

Now, Werdum is backing off the WWE claims, noting that he was talking about possibly doing lucha libre in Mexico even though he specifically mentioned WWE by name.

Werdum talked about how his kickboxer film producer Rob Hickman helped him arrange the meeting with a WWE rep. Werdum stated in the original article, "I'll have this meeting Thursday in San Diego to see if something happens with WWE. It's cool, a unique opportunity to do a few fights there as well. People think it's easy, but it's not. You have to be well trained to do those jumps, you have to be agile. It's not easy as some people might think. It's quite complicated. You have to be well trained and practice a lot to captivate the audience."
