Wanderlei Silva and Chael Sonnen could be meeting with WWE at Wrestlemania
A seemingly unending saga of cancelled fights and avoided drug tests may have prevented Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva from meeting in the UFC's Octagon, but it doesn't mean they couldn't square off in a WWE ring.
During an interview on TSN's "Off The Record," Sonnen told host Michael Landsberg that he'd been invited to meet with WWE brass at Wrestlemania 31.
"That's fact," Sonnen said, according to MMAFighting.com's David St. Martin. "Look, I got a call from the WWE. They said, 'Look, we've got Wrestlemania, we've got a Hall of Fame show coming up in March. If you want to come out, come on out. We want to talk to you about some stuff.'
"They're buying me a plane ticket there, giving me a great seat to the show. I do enjoy that product. I don't know what (WWE and I) are talking about, but I will give you a scoop. Wanderlei Silva was also invited. I don't know if he's accepted and I don't know if the two are related, but there you go."
"The Axe Murderer" confirmed the invite on his Instagram page.
I received a great proposal of WWE and now I'm wondering what you think of the idea!!!
Make. This. Happen.
