Tyson Fury made his impressive WWE in-ring debut with flying colours at WWE Crown Jewel Pay-per-view event in Saudi Arabia. Fury was paid a great deal of cash, which is reported to be somewhere around $15 million for his efforts at the Saudi event. The boxing heavyweight who defeated Braun Strowman with a TKO count out win seemingly has unfinished business with Strowman who attacked Fury post-fight.

Tyson Fury News – Is a rematch against Braun Strowman in the works?
Prior to his fight with Strowman, Tyson Fury had suggested that he might end up having an extended stay in professional wrestling and hinted interest in fights against the WWE Heavyweights like Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez. And with his impressive display of wrestling in Riyadh, it is only likely that the company would hold on to the Gypsy King for future pay-per-view events.
However, as for his next fight, it is believed that the knockout artist may be headed for another epic collision with Braun Strowman before he gets involved into a fresh feud in the WWE.
