5 pro wrestlers who would succeed in MMA and 5 who would fail

Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley have been successful competing in Mixed Martial Arts.

Would Fail: Baron Corbin

We all know Baron Corbin likes to fight. He was kicked out of the NFL....twice...for his brutality with his own teammates.

But liking to fight is just the first step to being an MMA competitor, and Corbin lacks any boxing, wrestling, or formal combat training. While he might be the toughest guy at the Bar B Que, he just doesn't have the chops or skills to be a cage fighter.

As big of fans as we are of Corbin and his wicked End of Days finisher, we think he should stick to wrestling--and stay out of the MMA cage.
