10 Current MMA Fighters Who Could Jump To Professional Wrestling
8. Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson
20 years ago, someone Mighty Mouse's size would only be in a wrestling ring for gimmick matches. Today, Johnson could use his creativity and fight I.Q. to excel in the ring. Now, more than any other time in professional wrestling, a 5'3", 125 lbs man can compete at the highest levels of the game.
Johnson already presents like a pint-sized superhero in the cage. His movements, gestures and fight style fit right into the wrestling world. Look no further than his physics-defying flying armbar against Ray Borg. Mighty Mouse is a natural babyface. He comes across as a genuinely nice guy who dispatches of his opponents with extreme prejudice.
DJ's stature and agility would make him a fun tag-team partner with a larger wrestler. His natural flow of movement and creativity would lend itself to some impressive multi-man spots. While Mighty Mouse could be competitive in a cruiserweight division, a solid tag partner would allow Johnson to work off of another skill set.
Dream Match: Mighty Mouse and Powerhouse Hobbs vs. FTR. Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood can make anyone look good. These four in the ring would drum up the crowd for at least one round of "THIS IS AWESOME!"
