This week on WWE Friday Night Smackdown’s FOX debut, Braun Strowman seemingly set up a feud with boxer Tyson Fury.
As a follow-up, WWE has offered Tyson Fury an ‘open mic’ on Raw tomorrow night, and the belief is that he will call out the “Monster Among Men”.
With regards to WWE’s plans for Tyson Fury, some have speculated that he and Strowman could build towards a match at WrestleMania 36 in April 2020.
However, it appears as if WWE higher-ups have other plans for the boxer.
According to talkSPORT’s Alex McCarthy, Fury will be appearing at WWE Crown Jewel later this month in Saudi Arabia as opposed to WrestleMania 36.
🚨Tyson Fury/WWE news🚨
Two different sources have told me the plan is for Tyson Fury to appear in Saudi Arabia, not WM36. ESPN and FOX has worked together on this and the goal is to promote Fury v Wilder.
Deal was agreed earlier this week, one source said Monday.

McCarthy would go on to explain that Fury will likely be doing something with Braun, but said that he isn’t sure if Tyson will be wrestling or even getting physical on the show.
Naturally assume he’ll be doing something with Braun but I don’t know how much, if at all he’ll get physical. I have no details on that.
Trying to get a word with Fury after he does RAW.

WWE’s plans for Tyson Fury will certainly become far clearer after his appearance on Raw tomorrow night.
