10 MMA Fighters And Their WWE Counterparts

This may seem a little odd, since the two look nothing alike. However, they're both considered the greatest of all-time by many, and certainly are two of the most iconic, beloved stars in their respected profession. At least they were at their peak.

Hogan was caught using racist language on a tape record several years ago in secret, while Anderson Silva failed a pair of drug tests taken at the time of his fight against Nick Diaz earlier this year.
