Lets Keep it a Bean, would a WWE/UFC crossover event work?

With TKO being a huge inspiration to how the company is being run, and how much of a dumb mark Trips is concerning kick pad workrate with no payoff. What if a UFC/WWE event actually happened on the level of inokism?

Could that put asses into the seats and get yall hyped up, or would it be on some Brawl 4 All bullshyt with how work shoot fights always end up terrible. Hell, I remember when Ronda/Shayna tried to do such things at Summerslam and sadly, I was probably the only one that enjoyed it:



With the right guidance and setup, would a full crossover event be the wave, or like inokism a dark period to the WWE?

Whole event or series of matches no but could you do a one off match at SummerSlam or mania yes..I'll add there's no one star on either side that's big enough to do it.

UFC fans complain about there being no stars.

WWE is in a much better place.

But, I would love to see Alex Pereira in a WWE ring.

Yeah Pereira vs Reigns :whew: .

But yeah :huhldup: , outside of De Riddler, this is sad as hell and I blame Dana for allowing these weed carriers to fight in a warehouse, instead of paying them and making the presentation look like a mecca on the level of Rizin and ONE.

UFC would tarnish their reputation by being involved in a worked show. Even if it was a shoot, WWE's name would make it come off as a work. It's the whole reason Cokeboy didn't want to buy UFC when Shane was telling him to.

CM Punk's entire UFC run also ruins the mystique of trained MMA fighters vs wrasslers too.

Breh the UFC rep already got tarnished the moment Dana'a eggheaded ass put money into a "Slapping" contest :dead: . Lets keep it a bean, dude is just as carny as Trips and em.

The only difference is that MMA is all shoot and buildup work, vs working the shoot and shooting the marks like wrestling.

So in order for the trifecta to be complete, we need to balance out the work with the shoot to shoot with the work :ehh:
