    Brock, and to a lesser extent Bobby Lashley, have already shown how well a pro wrestler can do in the MMA world

    When Ken Shamrock crossed over to WWE he did really well for himself, and was a convincing bad ass wrestler

    Which other MMA stars would make great pro wrestlers (great mic skills and a bags of charisma are pretty much essential here)


    Rampage Jackson is the most obvious one, he'd be a comeplete natural

    With his charisma and mic skills Matt Serra would be great as a runt like hell or a manager

    GSP would be great as the all good guy, who the girls love and the kids wanna be. He's not got the mic skills, but gets away with it cause of his French accent, and his looks and personality would maybe him a strong choice for WWE Champion


    Name some more....

    Tito would make a good heel.

    He'd make a great tag team with Bob Holly

    Vince McMahon would turn Fedor into the worst failed gimmick in pro wrestling history.

    Prime Don Frye would have been fun to watch in the WWE. He could have did his Dear Don routine... would have been great. I know that he did some work on the wrestling circuit.

    Frye and Dan Severn would have been a great tasched gay cowboy tagteam, like the Blackjacks


    but Fedor would be an awful pro wrestler, thats an abysmal choice


    Bob Sapp would have been fantastic (think he's done some pro wrestling in Japan anyway)

    Hong Man Choi could be awesome, just because he is enormous even when compared to pro-wrestlers.

    Chuck Lidell might have been great for just a stint, like mayweather or ali. I bet his looping overhand right could be masked to look like a real hit better too.

    Josh Barnett hasn't been mentioned and I think he should considering he has done some pro wrestling. Plus he's not shy in front of a microphone and plays to the crowd after fights, when he draws his thumb across his throat etc.

    Severn was a pro wrestler. Sapp wrestled in NJPW as does Josh Barnett and Mark Hunt.
