Aspinall was brought out by Cody Rhodes while the champ himself was in the middle of cutting a promo with Gunther. Cody and Gunther are set to compete against each other at WWE’s upcoming PLE, Crown Jewel 2024 .

So, they were in the ring to create hype for the match, before being joined by Aspinall. Having all three of TKO’s heavyweight champions in the ring sure made for a special moment, and Gunther even mentioned that the three should take a photograph to immortalize it. Aspinall also spoke up after the show and mentioned a future in WWE.

Let’s take a look at what the UFC star had to say: “When I have retired from MMA, I’m switching over to WWE. And I’m going to be the WWE heavyweight champ.” Also Read: Interim UFC Champ Tom Aspinall Joins Cody Rhodes and Gunther in WWE Ring Does Tom Aspinall have what it takes to be the WWE Heavyweight Champion? At the current stage of his career, Aspinall is one of the best MMA fighters in the world.

He is holding the Heavyweight Championship in place of Jon Jones, who seems to have no interest in fighting him. Jones is widely regarded as the greatest fighter of all time, so for him to dodge Aspinall has done wonders for Tom’s reputation within the sport. If Jon Jones doesn’t want to mess with Aspinall, it goes without saying that almost no one will want to mess with Aspinall.

He is clearly a dominant figure and an incredible athlete who has the ability to connect with the fans. When you combine all of that, it is clear to see that Aspinall can be a huge success in WWE. However, we can’t really talk about Aspinall’s chances of becoming the WWE Heavyweight Champion until he actually makes it to the ring.

While Tom has a good chance of winning, nothing is guaranteed, so we’ll have to wait and see what he does after retiring from MMA. Also Read: The Rock 2024 net worth, WWE salary & more.
