Tom Aspinall has publicly expressed frustration about not getting to lock down a UFC fight with heavyweight king Jon Jones to the point where he has pitched a crossover match in a WWE ring.
In a recent interview with MMA personality The Schmo, the interim UFC Heavyweight Champion suggested a fantasy tag team match. He envisions himself teaming up with WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes to face off against Jon Jones and the recently heel-turned John Cena.
“That’s my retirement plan [move to WWE] Cody Rhodes is my guy. Me and Cody, we’ll have a match one day. I think we might team up, me and Cody Rhodes because we’re both babyfaces, aren’t we?
Maybe we could fight Jon Jones and whoever the heel is over there. Who’s the main heel, well, John Cena just turned heel. Cody Rhodes and Tom Aspinall tag team versus Jon Jones and John Cena, babyfaces versus heels. Big matchup.“
