The guy is a scumbag. He'll probably fight for UFC again, but he shouldn't. They'd drop him now if they were smart, before he becomes even more trouble than he's worth. If he ever fights again, it should only be after apologising and displaying some genuine attempt at getting his act together. Which I doubt we'll see any time soon.
I agree with you about McGregor being a scumbag and I wouldn't sign him for anything I was doing, anybody that can make Floyd Mayweather look anything but terrible in the build to a fight is pretty much failing as a human being, but Vince thinks differently, he signed Mike Tyson after all.
McGregor has more charisma and is a better fit for WWE than all the UFC people they've signed combined. You are right about it being a PG show, but it is also a very scripted show, I'm sure you could write a clause in his contract that would void it if he goes off script/cusses/etc., maybe even recoup some money already paid to him at that point.
I don't know if it will happen and it probably shouldn't happen, but money is more important than what's right for both Vince and Dana, so anything is possible.
