What a time to be alive if youre a fan of both the UFC and WWE. There simply has never been so much crossover talk between the two companies than there is right now.

First and foremost, theres the obvious buzz in the wake of UFC 214 surrounding a potential superfight between UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and former heavyweight champ Brock Lesnar, the current WWE Universal Champion. Theres also the fact that former UFC womens bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey recently attended tapingsof WWEs first-ever womens tournament, the Mae Young Classic, and reportedly was involved in a story angle with training partner-turned pro wrestler Shayna Baszler, which is slated to air on WWE Network later this month.

Perhaps flying a bit under the radar, though, is the social media feud between newly crowned UFC womens featherweight champion Cristiane Justino (18-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC)and WWE star Becky Lynch. It started weeks ago and has continued on, with both women teasing a match or encounter of some sort at WWEs SummerSlam pay-per-view event on Aug. 20.

Heres a sampling:

They made a deal to face each other hours before UFC 214.

Lynch made a video calling out Cyborg as she walked out to the octagon at UFC 214.

Cyborg asked WWE star and executive Triple H to make a match happen after her victory.

Cyborg followed up with some more trash-talk.

Cyborg came out of her UFC 214 win over Tonya Evinger pretty much unscathed, which seemingly leaves the door open for a quick turnaround to compete (I mean perform) at SummerSlam in under three weeks.

Things could get even more interesting between these two until then.
