Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter has made it no secret that he's interested in transitioning to wrestling once his NBA career is over, and it sounds like WWE bosses Vince McMahon and Triple H are on board with the idea.

Kanter told TMZ Sports he's spoken to McMahon and Triple H about joining WWE full time one day.

"I'm ready, I'm actually already talking to some people," Kanter said. "I'm really good friends with Paul Heyman and I got to actually meet with Triple H and Vince McMahon. They said, 'Hey, whenever you're ready.' I'm like, 'Alright, let's do it.'"

Kanter appeared on WWE Raw at Madison Square Garden in September, where he won - and promptly lost - the 24/7 championship.
