Former UFC fighter, TV analyst and current GFW announcer Chael Sonnen is reportedly meeting with Michael Cole at the August 11th WWE SmackDown tapings in Portland, Oregon. The meeting was apparently set up by WWE talent scout Gerald Brisco and WWE's Senior Director of Talent Development Canyon Ceman.

Sonnen was in San Jose for WWE's WrestleMania 31 and the Hall of Fame earlier this year. It was reported that he was set to have unofficial talks with Kevin Dunn, possibly about a potential WWE TV role.

Would be pretty cool to have him in WWE.

I'd be cool with it for sure.. I saw Byron Saxton on RAW when I started watching again and I was like what the hell?

Is this real life?

I'd be so down with Chael in WWE, i'm only jacked for GFW BECAUSE of Chael being named alongside it. Wow. Wow.

He should stay in GFW.. Last thing they need is Chael Sonnen in WWE, would he be a commentator? All i know about the guy is he's not a wrestler.

He was on Fox doing the UFC analysis, since he's an MMA fighter. He's also incredibly good at the analysis.

He did wrestling in NCAA in his younger days. So yeah, he did wrestling, just not sports entertaining.

And what would be so special about having him in WWE?

I always liked the guy, but I haven't seen much of him, would love him to replace Saxon on commentary.

He is incredibly charismatic with the easy sell of being a legit fighter. You can either have him as a commentator or ideally a manager. Wait, imagine Heyman vs Chael on the mic.

Sonnen is one of those easy sells into wrestling. Legitimate top athlete within his sport (MMA) and gifted with the ability to talk like no one's business. He was UFC's Roddy Piper. While a perfectly good fighter it was almost more fun to watch him verbally pillage his opponents before and after fights.

Get him in as a manager or commentator.

Do some research, he is a championship wrestler the likes of Ziggler and Lesnar and then some. He has backgrounds in PLENTY of shit and is the best mouthpiece you would see on WWE today IMMEDIATELY.

He would instantly be the best promo guy in the company lol

put on his shit talking reels, the dude is legend

+ legit MMA background. He has a future as a pro wrestler if he wanted to commit to it. Sadly he likely won't be an in ring performer

I actually think he would do much better as a wrestler then as a mma fighter
