In late 2021, Russian mixed martial artist Khabib Nurmagomedov made a comment about Hasbulla that caught the wrestling world's attention. Khabib told Red Corner MMA that WWE is aware of Hasbulla's popularity:

"We talk about all this stuff with Hasbulla. He has to go to the US. In the US, he is very popular. All the big celebrities and stars and promotions like WWE, NBA, hockey, American football, UFC, all these sports he is very popular. They all know him. He has to move for a couple years to the US and become maybe a billionaire. At a minimum, a millionaire. He needs to make a visa and go to USA," he said. [H/T Fightful]

Around the same time, Khabib suggested that WWE was seemingly interested in Hasbulla and wanted to pay him big bucks for a match. Khabib added that Hasbulla was immensely popular abroad.
