5 WWE wrestlers who allegedly dislike UFC star Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor has been linked to a move to WWE several times over the past few years. Recently, the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes said Conor McGregor would do a great job in WWE and would be a perfect fit for the roster.

However, it seems not all WWE Superstars would love to see the former UFC Champion join the Stamford-based company. In this article, we will take a look at five superstars who allegedly don't like Conor McGregor.

#5. Randy Orton

The Viper had once taken a shot at Conor McGregor for some comments he had made about WWE and how dominant he would be if he competed in WWE.

Randy Orton called out McGregor but didn't want to talk about him in detail, just saying that he wouldn't stand a chance in WWE.

"It's obvious he is trolling WWE to create a buzz for this fight he has got coming up. I don't really follow MMA, I followed Brock. But this kid... I got a handful of Irish guys in the WWE locker room that would clean the floor with him. You know, what's he, a buck 70, buck 60? I wish the little guy well. I do. But I don't wanna spend any more time talking about him," Randy Orton once said (via Sportskeeda).

Should Conor McGregor make a move to WWE, he could certainly target the 14-time world champion and would start a feud with him.

#4. Drew McIntyre

The Scottish Warrior had once attempted to mock the UFC star, after the latter challenged the then-WWE boss Vince McMahon, saying he would beat him one-on-one.

"Big man @TheNotoriousMMA picking a fight with ANOTHER 70 year old, you couldn’t drop a guy in a pub, you have no chance against Vince. You’re just the latest guy thinking he can have his PR team stick my title on his shoulder & walk into our world. Stick to whiskey McTapper," Drew McIntyre posted on his X account.

Drew McIntyre is now taking time off the ring to recover from injuries he sustained at Bad Blood and it would be interesting to see if he will take to social media to comment on Rhodes' WWE invitation to Conor McGregor.

#3. Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar and Conor McGregor have something in common as they both competed in UFC and were quite successful during their time in the octagon.

Despite that, though, they don't seem to like each other, after once taking shots at one another. McGregor underestimated Lesnar and the latter replied with a furious response.

"If Conor McGregor wants to say some sh** to me and his name out there more than he already has by dropping in my name, I got about 10 words for him, come here, face-to-face, Conor, all right and say it to my face, otherwise leave me and WWE out of it because I came to your arena and kicked a** know if you want anything - if so tough - come to our arena and try to kick some a**," Brock Lesnar once said, via SportBible.

If Brock Lesnar does come back to WWE sometime down the line, he could challenge Conor McGregor to a dream match in a major premium live event like WrestleMania or SummerSlam.

#2. Sheamus

The Celtic Warrior doesn't seem to have had any issues with McGregor so far but once had some advice to the former UFC Champion that if they collided, he would dominate him.

Sheamus also took a shot at WWE for bringing in guys from other sports just to attract a bigger audience and expects McGregor to become such a case in the future.

Based on his comments, though, it is safe to say that Conor McGregor isn't Sheamus' favorite athlete either.

#1. Roman Reigns

The former Undisputed WWE Universal Champion had once replied to the UFC star, who was sure he would beat the entire WWE locker room. Roman Reigns had replied to McGregor then to stop running his mouth and that he wouldn't stand a chance in WWE.

McGregor had also taken shots at Paul Heyman and had mocked Roman Reigns, saying that he was the only double champion in the business.

It would be interesting to see how The Original Tribal Chief would react if Conor moved to WWE.
