Nick Khan Explains Why TKO Is Avoiding A WWE And UFC Crossover Event For Now

WWE President Nick Khan recently appeared on an episode of The Town podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including why TKO is avoiding a crossover event between WWE and UFC for now.

Khan said, โ€œWeโ€™re predetermined.โ€ โ€œWe think our athletes are the best in the world and all of those great things. Those guys are fighting each other for their lives and their livelihood. Itโ€™s a great sport and theyโ€™ve done a tremendous job.โ€

โ€œI think Mark Shapiro said at a conference a couple of years ago, UFCโ€™s the number four sport in the country. So we at WWE think that UFC has earned that status. People talk about it, itโ€™s pervasive, itโ€™s penetrated society. You might say to your kid Iโ€™m gonna tap out. Like, Iโ€™m done for the night. Thatโ€™s all UFC.โ€
