Could we see another transformation from UFC to WWE?
UFC Fighter, Sam Alvey, is scheduled to fight Michael Oleksiejczuk this Saturday, August 6th. Sam believes he’s headed towards ending his career with UFC and this fight could potentially be his last. But, he’d like to be in WWE, Sam Alvey said while speaking to Sportskeeda MMA.
You know, if the UFC and I decided not to continue our relationship together, I want so desperately to be in the WWE. That is what got me into fighting, to begin with. I love that sport. I love every part of it. That would be a dream. But I like fighting so much, I don’t want to stop. I’m sure I will land on my feet in, I don’t know, Bare Knuckle boxing, maybe, I’ll go back to Bellator, or, I love tournaments the PFL tournament might be perfect for me,

Despite maybe wanting to head to WWE, this doesn’t mean he wants to stop fighting in UFC and hopes to get a new contract and a massive raise.
I have not spoken to anyone about it yet, because honestly, my whole entire intention is to stay in the UFC, I want to win so dominantly and impressively that the UFC wants to not only give me a new contract but a massive raise, too. So we’ll see what happens. But that is the goal.

Sam also touched on who his favorite wrestlers were growing up, noting The Rock and current AEW Star, Chris Jericho.
I love The Rock, everyone kind of does. But, Chris Jericho is way high on my list, too. I forgot how much I liked him. I’m watching on the peacock app, the Monday Night Wars, and I’m just re-watching some of Jericho because I love Jericho,
