Tyson Fury made his WWE debut on Thursday, October 31 at King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia against Braun Strowman. Strowman had taunted Fury earlier in the month at SmackDown’s 20th Anniversary show and they settled the score at Thursday’s show which was the second of the WWE’s Crown Jewel events.
For Fury, it was everything you would expect from WWE when a star boxer steps into the squared circle.
First, it started with an incredible entrance.
And then, Strowman welcomed Fury to the WWE ring without wasting any time.
Finally, the Gypsy King earned a big victory in his debut bout by sending Strowman out of the ring after a devastating shot for a count-out.
It was an entertaining performance all-around, and a fantastic sell from Strowman at the end. We will have to see whether WWE has Tyson Fury in their future plans for another big match or if this was simply a one-and-done.
