UFC 309 had its fair share of memorable moments, but it wasn’t just the action in the octagon that had people talking.
After Charles Oliveira’s epic win over Michael Chandler, wrestling’s power duo, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, made waves by appearing cageside at Madison Square Garden. The unexpected sighting of the WWE legends sent the internet into overdrive as fans and fellow stars weighed in on the crossover moment of the night.
Adding fuel to the fire, Stephanie McMahon took to Twitter to reflect on the couple’s memorable night. “Thank you @danawhite @ufc for taking such great care of @TripleH and I last night at #UFC309! Congratulations @Jonnybones @charlesdobronxs @viviaurujomma @NoBickal, Mauricio Ruffy and all the fighters who competed last night @TheGarden! It was Incredible!” she posted, sharing a photo of herself and Triple H enjoying the event.
The photo attached showed the duo looking every bit the part of sports entertainment royalty as they soaked up the intense atmosphere. Their appearance was a reminder of the growing intersections between WWE and UFC, especially after the recent merger under the TKO Group Holdings banner.
With social media ablaze and fans thrilled at seeing some of WWE’s top brass supporting the UFC, one thing is clear: these crossover moments are here to stay.
