According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Vince McMahon and John Laurinaitis met with MMA star Bob Sapp on 10/15 in Los Angeles. Paul Heyman has pushed for WWE to sign Sapp dating back to 2003, when he wanted the company to book a Sapp vs. Brock program. The problem appears to be that Sapp has lucrative MMA matches on the table, and accepts movie roles. The chances of the sides coming to an agreement appear to be 50/50.

I have only seen him fight once and I wasn't that impressed with him. Granted he is huge, but he doesn't seem to be very mobile or athletic(which is to be expected with a guy as big as he is). He might make it in the WWE if he can talk, but if he cant then he will be just another big guy that is let go after a year or so.
