A huge Tyson Fury match is reportedly being looked at as an option for WWE, a match that could be a big crossover event.

The company appears to want to have a Drew McIntyre vs Gyspy King bout at the Clash of the Castle event, but this may be even bigger.

Writing in the latest issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer has indicated that Fury wants to face Logan Paul in WWE.

‘It originally was an idea to try and make McIntyre more mainstream and garner pub for him outside of wrestling,” Meltzer wrote about the potential McIntyre vs Fury bout.

“Without McIntyre, the question would be who would he face. It would be a risk since both don’t have much experience, but given that Jake Paul and Tommy Fury (Tyson’s brother) have been linked of late for a fight, Logan Paul would have a storyline to it” Meltzer added.

“It’s a real-life one but not necessarily one that a lot of wrestling fans would know, but they could tell it.

“There is a size difference and credibility in fighting difference, but pretty much anyone Fury would fight in WWE besides the few guys who are McIntyre’s size would have that.

“Within the company, the belief was Fury wants to do it, but the price would be high and the question is whether WWE believes the price is worth it” Meltzer concluded.
