How effective would WWE moves be in a UFC fight?
Submissions if done properly could force a legit tapout, but what about the slams and other moves.

They would be of little effect as the current style of WWE's wrestling is for entertainment and showmanship.The intense ground and pound style used in UFC would be too much for the average WWE Superstar.Some of the technical moves would be fine, but the WWE style is unsuited to a complete match.

The slams would hurt. But wrestlers would have to cut the show boating that they do before they slam them down. UFC fighters will just take any opening as an opportunity to hurt the opponent. The fancy stuff wouldn't stand a chance in UFC. But WWE is far more entertaining as a wow factor but UFC is so unpredictable you can watch a fight and be genuinely surprised.

wwe wrestlers would never get close enough to ufc fighters to use any sort of move gainst them because theyd get their faced kicked in before they could take two steps
i dont like either so dont mistake me for a fanboy
wwe guys are trained to work together to put on an entertaining show
ufc guys are trained to fight hard and fast and avoid the other guy's limbs
imagine a a guy pushed against the ring line or the cage and came running at a ufc guy, hes get kicked in the head and ko's right there
the ufc guy is gonna just stand there and be cartoon dazed out if he gets a the weakest of blows, hes gonna kick some motherflippin!

My MMA coach has said he thinks Im a natural because Ive been a WWE fan for years. Some moves when apilled right are very useful, I often use the Double A Spinebuster and Angles Ankle Lock. Oddly enough I managed to do a Sharpshooter once, he tapped out straight away haha

Well I've actually seen a belly-to-back suplex in a ufc fight to take a guy down so some slams are effective.

Considering WWE moves are choreographed and staged, i would say 0% effective in the fight.
WWE moves in UFC would be like saying just because an actor played a soldier, he's now qualified to go fight in a real war.

Most of the slams wouldn't even be legal in UFC or any Ultimate fighting because in UFC/Ultimate fighting you cant lift any1 above your head

if you landed some of the slams modified so as to hurt the other person, they could be very effective. But it is almost impossible to land, lets say for example, a last ride on an opponent. So they would be effective if it wasnt impossible to land anything but something that slightly resembles a spinebuster.

Just submissions, but some of CM Punks kicks and hits, but no "moves"
