    I have no doubt that the WWE came calling but the $5-million figure seems high.

    Maybe it was a 5 year/5 Million dollar contract.

    ^ He was making more in the UFC at the time. Dana White wouldn't have to match that kind of offer.

    Yeah but WWE is probably more reliable and would give you more merchandise profit, also I doubt he'd be a full time wrestler. How easy would it be to just show up every couple weeks on RAW and talk shit?
