Timing wise, if McGregor did retire from UFC in the wake of the UFC 200 expulsion, then his contractual status could feasibly be worked in time to be with WWE for a main event at SummerSlam.

Of course, there's the question of how the hell does he actually work a match? He has zero pro wrestling experience, and wouldn't have the time to learn the craft.

The simple answer is, he'd require his opponent to carry and sell. However, McGregor is famed for quick finishes, so that would work in his favour. He could unleash his kicks and punches, do some MMA style mat work, and eventually knock Cena out cold with that legendary left hand, followed up by ground and pound. Rather than a pin, the ref would step in and wave it off, MMA style.

They could certainly have an exciting little match under the ten minute mark. And McGregor winning would increase his value and make headlines around the world.
