UFC’s Michael Chandler Offers to Help Keep Order on WWE NXT
UFC fighter Michael Chandler offered to help on WWE NXT during an unsanctioned match next week.
He contacted NXT General Manager Robert Stone and said he could help keep order in the match between Cruz Montana and Dion Lennox.
Stone responded that they should discuss the idea, but Chandler’s appearance and exact role have not been officially confirmed.
Chandler has previously visited WWE’s training center and appeared on Raw in 2024, and he has spoken about wanting to move from mixed martial arts into wrestling.
WWE and UFC share parent company TKO Group Holdings, which has allowed talent from the two organizations to appear on each other’s shows.
NXT’s November 4 show will air on Wednesday, rather than its usual Tuesday slot, to avoid election coverage in the United States.
The show will also compete with AEW Dynamite’s Blood & Guts special, and it is not yet clear whether Chandler will be part of the broadcast.
