10 Pro Wrestlers Who Could Have Been Stars In The UFC
4. Ernest Miller
Ernest 'The Cat' Miller is best remembered for his tenure in WCW during the Monday Night Wars. Known for his dance move and karate kicks — if nothing else — 'The Cat' was certainly memorable.
Miller was an outstanding all-around athlete who was an All-American linebacker in college. Moreover, the karate background that WCW commentators often mentioned was indeed legit. He's a three-time world karate champion and was also kickboxer. In fact, he even served as a karate instructor for a young Garrett Bischoff back in the day.
Granted, karate isn't a style that has traditionally had a ton of success in high-level MMA. That being said, it often makes for exciting fights. Moreover, Miller has the type of dance moves that could have given Israel Adesanya a run for his money in terms of flashy entrances.
While the now 56-year-old probably wouldn't have captured UFC gold, it's not hard to imagine him achieving stardom as an entertaining action fighter way back when.
