After the merging of UFC and WWE, fighter crossovers are a common occurrence. The WWE premium pay-per-view events have become a breeding ground for the UFC superstars off late. However, with night 1 of WrestleMania kicking off, UFC head honcho Dana White could be seen in attendance. Unfortunately, while he was shown a couple of times on live television, the crowds seemed to be booing White each time. Or is it?
Well, UFC veteran Chael Sonnen begs to differ. Clearing the air on the rumors about White being booed by the WWE universe, Sonnen outright rejected the narrative. He even pointed out that he was present in the same building, and nothing happened as such.
“I was there. This did not happen,” Sonnen stated on his official X handle.

While the reality of the booing situation is unknown, it is quite evident that a strong personality like White will surely have some significant reception. Meanwhile, dealing with his own promotion, White recently had a definitive take on the Jon Jones vs. Tom Aspinall fight speculations.
