Wrestler turned striker- I'll say Rampage

Striker turned wrestler- GSP?
 
Good Thread.

Wrestler turned Striker - TJ Dillashaw or Cruz

Striker turned Wrestler - GSP Fo' Sho!!!
 
If memory serves me correctly, Rumble was originally a pretty accomplished wrestler coming into the UFC.
 
TJ Dillashaw was a collegiate wrestler and is now a top notch striker.

K-1 Hughes is no joke
 
Aldo is a great wrestler when he wants to. His TDD against Edgar was so damn perfect.
 
Rashad?
Laid on people until he got two of the best ever UFC KOs.
 
Aldo is a great wrestler when he wants to. His TDD against Edgar was so damn perfect.

TDD =/= wrestling, but yes his takedowns are very good when he decides he wants to go to the ground.
 
Striker turned wrestler has to be GSP.

Wrestler turned striker, Edgar is up there.
 
Striker turned wrestler - Conor McGregor.
 
Roy Nelson.

Dana criticized him for being boring. Hasn't wrestled since dominating TUF
 
Conor is the best striker turned p̶a̶n̶i̶c̶ wrestler.

100% in his takedown attempts.
