WWE is interested in working with UFC fighter Chael Sonnen.
Sonnen, who suffered a loss to Anderson Silva on Saturday night, is
being targeted by WWE to get involved in some fashion. There is no
indication if WWE wants the 35 year-old fighter to wrestle or have
another role.
Sonnen is friends with WWE Champion CM Punk. You might recall months
ago when CM Punk wanted to escort Sonnen to the Octagon for a fight and
WWE denied permission to Punk to appear on UFC television.
Sonnen also has close ties to Stone Cold Steve Austin who has been
bringing the UFC veteran out to his Broken Skull Ranch to work on
strength and conditioning.
