WWE’s Rezar Throws Down Challenge to UFC Fighters Post-UFC 302 Event

WWE Superstar Rezar is expressing interest in crossing paths once more with the heavyweights of UFC, either within the confines of the Octagon or the squared circle.

During UFC 302 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on June 1, Rezar took to Twitter to voice his eagerness to test his skills against UFC talent. Notably, he referenced his ongoing rivalry with The New Day, hinting at a potential confrontation scheduled for the upcoming WWE Monday Night Raw on June 3.

“Ufc302 where are the heavyweights at?? The Albanian Psycho is always ready!
6-2 never a decision! @ufc”

“@PaulElleringWWE This Monday night on @USANetwork #WWERaw the new day will feel the pain💀 #wwe @MMAFighting”

With an impressive 6-2 record in mixed martial arts, Rezar has proven his mettle inside the cage. His most recent bout occurred at Bellator 130, where he faced Daniel Hallemore and suffered a second-round TKO defeat. However, Rezar’s victories are equally notable, such as his swift triumph over Oli Thompson at BAMMA 15, secured within seconds via a Guillotine Choke in the first round.

This isn’t the first time WWE Superstars have shown interest in or crossed paths with UFC events. Names like CM Punk, Montez Ford, Bianca Belair, Rey Mysterio, and Randy Orton have all been spotted at UFC events following the merger in September 2023. Conversely, UFC fighter Michael Chandler made an appearance on the February 19 edition of WWE Monday Night Raw, seizing the opportunity to call out Conor McGregor.

Notably, upcoming events in Louisville, Kentucky, will feature a unique blend of WWE SmackDown and UFC Fight Night, offering fans a chance to experience a weekend of combat sports excitement. Additionally, WWE NXT Battleground is set to make history by being hosted at the UFC Apex on June 9, marking the first WWE event held at this prestigious venue.
