Boxer Tyson Fury continues to tease a match against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 36 next year in Tampa. During an interview with Behind the Gloves, Fury discussed his Crown Jewel match against Braun Strowman and teased plans after his fight against Deontay Wilder in February.
“It went really well, it was a good experience, WWE were fantastic,” said Fury h/t HeelByNature.com.
“I’m going to go back and destroy Brock Lesnar, at Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania rather, in Florida, after I beat Wilder, I’m coming for Brock.”
As reported here on WrestlePages.com, WWE is looking at doing Lesnar in a bout against Cain Velasquez or Fury.
The backstory behind a Lesnar vs. Velasquez match would be a “rubber match,” as Velasquez beat Lesnar for the UFC heavyweight title but Brock avenged the loss in Velasquez’s WWE debut match at Crown Jewel in October.
As for Fury vs. Lesnar, he has to beat Wilder and become the WBC heavyweight champion. If he does that, the allure of having a boxing world champion face Lesnar is expected to be too much for McMahon to pass up.
