Triple H has his own wish list of top athletes he would like to sign to WWE, and one of the names on the list is former UFC fighter Daniel Cormier.

Triple H has expressed his admiration for Cormier in an interview with TMZ Sports, where he revealed they have talked before about a possible crossover.

"I love Daniel (Cormier), we've obviously talked a lot in the past. We've had conversations about him doing stuff with us in the past whether that's in-ring or whether that's commentary or doing different things."

Triple H insisted WWE would like to work with the current UFC analyst and commentator when the time is right. But Cormier does not seem encouraged to make the jump. He addressed WWE's interest in signing him in a recent interview with Helen Yee, saying he is comfortable with what he does right now.

"I'm about to be 42 years old. I still talk to those guys (WWE). I have got some good friends over there. I did a thing with them for some commentary. It's fun. Helen, I love my job, I love the UFC. The relationships that I have with the people -- the production crew to the producers -- it's been just a great ride for me. I am building all these relationships outside of fighting and really enjoying the lane that I'm in."
