UFC 194: Aldo vs. McGregor

During his press conference last Friday, Conor McGregor continued on that anti-WWE soapbox regarding some of the WWE wrestlers.
This isn’t his first with his words against the WWE either because earlier in the month while attending another media day, McGregor was asked about a merging of the WWE and UFC “cross promote.”
During that first time his first exact words were, “I haven’t really thought about it. For the most part, those WWE guys are p*****s. They’re messed up p*****s if you asked me.

And now, McGregor narrowed down on John Cena, the guy that kids, teens and adults of all ages adore for one reason or the other.
First, McGregor called WWE’s wrestlers, “dweebs” and then he went on a rant against John Cena.
“These WWE guys, they’re not right in the head, some of them,” McGregor said during media day for UFC 202. “The new age (wrestlers) are dweebs. Absolute dweebs.”
“I just said it like it is. They’re dweebs, McGregor said. “What’s the main guy? John Cena. He’s 40. He’s 40 years of age. He’s walking around in a luminous orange t-shirt and a headband talking about nobody can see him. We can see him right there. He’s a big fat, 40-year old failed Mr. Olympia mo****fu****.” They’re dweebs, those guys.”
He continued with, “Like I said, no disrespect to the dons of the game, the McMahons. Vine Mac [Vincent McMahon] is a f***ing legend. They wrote Vinny off a few years ago when he dropped from the billions and then rose back up and now he’s back in the billionaire club. What he’s been able to do with that bunch of dweebs he has over there at the moment has been phenomenal, and I respect him for that. And then of course the OGs of the game, y’know- The Rock, Stone Cold, they’re cool motherf*****s. Even Ric Flair is a cool motherf*****r.
He tried backing it up with a tweet apology to the unhappy WWE fans:

I didn’t mean no disrespect to the @wwe fans. What I meant to say was that I’d slap the head off your entire roster. And twice on Sunday’s.
