5 Potential directions for Conor McGregor in WWE

#3. Conor McGregor could directly target a top champion on RAW or SmackDown

Conor McGregor's level of star power indicates that if he were to join WWE, Vince McMahon would probably set him up for the top title picture sooner rather than later.

Drew McIntyre is the current WWE Champion, while Roman Reigns is the current Universal Champion in WWE. McIntyre and Reigns have proven to be two of the most successful stars on RAW and SmackDown, respectively.

Either top champion would probably keep tabs on Conor McGregor's WWE appearances if The Notorious One showed up on their weekly shows.

In 2020, the MMA star's company even took to Instagram to post a picture of him posing with the WWE and UFC belts.

People often say that the level of a champion determines the relevancy of a championship. Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns have been two of the strongest champions in recent memory, so if Conor McGregor will immediately set his eyes on a top title, the match should ideally occur against either one of the aforementioned WWE stars.

Irrespective of how Conor McGregor might fare in a pro wrestling ring, a major championship match featuring The Notorious One would attract a lot of attention towards the highest tier of storylines in the wrestling entertainment world.
