While the report doesn’t indicate any WWE superstar specifically that MVP is targeting, there are some who might make for good opponents.

Glenn Thomas Jacobs, better known by his wrestling monicker ‘Kane’ is currently Mayor of Knox County, Tennessee, but at over 300 pounds himself, ‘The Big Red Machine’ might be a good foe.
