Could wrestling legends switch from the octagon to the mat?

Rumors are swirling about two major names potentially jumping from mixed martial arts to a wrestling-only league. Real American Freestyle, a newer wrestling promotion, has caught attention by hinting at big signings. The CEO recently shared updates on talks with Georges St-Pierre, a UFC legend known for his wrestling skills. While St-Pierre never competed in NCAA or Olympic wrestling, his UFC record speaks for itself—he holds the most takedowns in welterweight history. His possible move to RAF isn’t confirmed, but the timing of RAF’s upcoming Las Vegas event in October suggests it could be a perfect debut stage.Meanwhile, Brock Lesnar, a former UFC heavyweight champion, has been busy in WWE. After retiring at WrestleMania, he returned for a quick feud with Oba Femi. Now, whispers suggest he might step away from WWE after SummerSlam. If that happens, Lesnar could explore other opportunities—including RAF. The promotion’s CEO has already floated Gable Steveson, an NCAA wrestling champion from the University of Minnesota, as a potential opponent. Both wrestlers have ties to the same school, making a matchup intriguing. The wrestling world isn’t short on surprises. Lesnar’s last WWE run was chaotic, and St-Pierre’s UFC dominance was legendary. Their shift to a wrestling-only league would shake things up. RAF’s fast-growing fanbase could benefit from their star power, but will either fighter really make the jump? The CEO’s openness suggests they’re at least considering it. For now, fans can only speculate—until official announcements arrive.
