After dominating the UFC and retiring undefeated, Khabib Nurmagomedov was linked to a surprising next step — WWE. Following his brawl with Conor McGregor’s camp at UFC 229, rumors swirled that WWE wanted “The Eagle” to make the jump to pro wrestling. Even Khabib himself hinted at it in a viral tweet. But despite the hype, it never happened. In this video, we break down why WWE never signed Khabib, how close it actually came to happening, and what Stone Cold-level storyline potential fans missed out on. From his rivalry with Conor to his strict code of discipline and retirement after his father’s death, this is the real reason Khabib stayed out of the ring — and how his legacy still towers above both UFC and WWE.
