Ahead of his upcoming fight with reigning UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman, Colby Covington visited Haimov Jewelers and was in a rather chatty mood.
During the conversation, one of those present in the store claimed that switching from UFC to WWE did not make sense as it was like going from real to fake. To this, Colby Covington animatedly replied in sarcasm:
"You're so f***ing fake. You think the slams are fake man? We're getting f***ing broken bones!"

And you know my thing is I want to go over to WWE and make wrestling real again."
When asked about his WWE debut, Colby Covington revealed that 2021 might be the year he makes his WWE debut. During the interview, 'The Chaos' also admitted that he was working hard on his moves, promo and mic skills. Colby Covington had also added that he was going to WWE to have a good time.
Covington had said:
"I want to make sure when I go there I make the biggest splash possible, because I’m not here for a long time, I’m here for a good time, and I’m not here to make friends, I’m here to make money. When I go over there I want to make Brink’s truckloads of money."
