White and the UFC have been working very closely with WWE lately. The two companies merged in 2023 to form the TKO Group Holdings company. Now, the two companies help each other out promotionally given they're under the same umbrella. Various WWE stars have been seen in attendance for UFC events since, and vise versa.

Recently, White was even the featured guest on Stephanie McMahon's podcast on the WWE YouTube channel, "What's Your Story? ". The UFC boss discussed his past dealings with Vince McMahon, how McMahon's son once wanted to buy the UFC, and many more interesting topics.
