The UFC has had connections to the pro-wrestling business for years. Friday night in Memphis, company president Dana White actually got involved in a match alongside WWE Hall-of-Famer Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler.
While filming their Lookin’ for a Fight series, White, Matt Serra and Din Thomas were involved in an independent wrestling show dubbed “Beale St. Brawl.”
