Triple H “Blown Away” By Tyson Fury’s Pro Wrestling Progress

Tyson Fury has impressed some key WWE figures as he prepares for his in-ring debut against Braun Strowman at WWE Crown Jewel. Speaking with Bleacher Report, WWE’s Executive Vice President of Talent, Live Events and Creative, Triple H, shared his thoughts on Fury’s progression in the squared circle.

“I was blown away,” Triple H admitted. “I sent Vince [McMahon] a video of him about 45 minutes after the first day he was at the Performance Center, and I said, ‘You’re not going to believe this, look at what he’s already doing.’”

He reflected on how Fury is a fast learner, adding that he is “laser-focused” on succeeding in-ring. Triple H has previously shared that he believes Fury is a custom made fit for WWE.

“He picks it up so quickly because he’s so laser-focused on it. He wants to put on this epic show,” he said. “He has the desire for it to be great. He’s asking for more; he wants more; he’s jumping in with both feet. It’s almost like having to pull the reins back a little bit to get him to slow down and say, ‘maybe we don’t want to do that quite yet.’ It’s amazing to see that level of dedication.”

Fury faces off against Braun Strowman later this month at WWE Crown Jewel on October 31st. The event takes place at the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

This matchup truly is interesting, because both is big men that can really go in the ring, and they are from different worlds so to speak.
