UFC star Jorge Masvidal provokes a clash with wrestlers in AEW

Masvidal concluded it wasn’t good enough for him to merely watch American Top Team play on Rampage in September 2021. At the end of the contest, the star got involved and delivered a flying knee to Chris Jericho, knocking him out.

In 2019, Masvidal memorably knocked out Ben Askren in five seconds with the move, setting a new UFC record.

On April 8 at Miami-Dade Arena, home of the NBA Miami Heat, “Gamebred” Jorge Masvidal of American Top Team will face Gilbert Burns of Kill Cliff FC in the co-main event of UFC 287.

He says ” I can’t tell you that I’ll be in the show, involved in the show (AEW Dynamite on 4/26) but I can tell you as a fan, I’ll definitely be there. Now, if they got time to include this guy because they know that when I come for these wrestlers, none of that fake stuff. I’m trying to hurt them for real, ask Chris Jericho. Ask anybody that gets in the way, I’m trying to hurt them for real and they know it. So, if they want that heat again, it’s cool but I don’t think they wanna see me back in there after what I did.

To tell you the truth, I’m gonna go as a fan because I love their shows. They got the rowdiest shows when it comes to pro wrestling so I’m gonna be out there definitely just to show love but, I don’t think they want to see that over there. Ever since I did that to Jericho, they’re kind of worried about me.”

The Heat doesn’t play on days like that. It’s possible that Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, Shaq, Zo, UD, and D-Wade will be in attendance to cheer for the home team. The last time the UFC was in Miami was in 2003, so this is an exciting return.
