WWE: 19 Professional Wrestlers with surprising MMA records that you may not know about

#14 Jake Hager

Jake Hager

Jake Hager is one of the most impressive current wrestling Superstars to have stepped into a cage. For a long part of his career, Hager was in WWE as Jack Swagger. There he was able to win the United States title and later the Money in the Bank match in 2010. This saw him win the World Heavyweight Championship later as well.

Unfortunately, Hager lacked charisma in the ring, and this resulted in his not reaching the heights that his otherwise legitimate skills in the ring would have seen him reach.

Currently, Hager is a part of All Elite Wrestling where he has done quite a good job of holding his own and is a part of the Inner Circle, a faction led by Chris Jericho. He is considered to be one of the top athletes in the promotion.

In the world of Mixed Martial Arts, Hager made his debut in 2019 for Bellator MMA. Since then, he has been able to win his first two fights for the promotion, both within the first round.

Unfortunately, his third fight for the promotion came to a premature end due to an accidental groin strike. The fight was ruled a draw.

Record: 2-0-1
