According to a new report from The Metro, professional boxer Tyson Fury has been training for a comeback in the United Kingdom, and he has an opponent picked on his road to redemption. According to Fury:
‘Hopefully I will be back in April. I’m looking at ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin.’
This would imply that he wants a showdown with “The Rattlesnake” at WrestleMania 34.
The most famous time that Austin was involved in a storyline with a boxer, was with Mike Tyson at WrestleMania 14. You can see a clip of the two together below:
Tyson was brought in to be the special guest enforcer for the WWF Championship match between Austin and champion, Shawn Michaels. As the storyline progressed, and the tension between Austin and Tyson rose, Tyson would eventually ally himself with Degeneration-X.
That changed at WrestleMania, however, when he made the pinfall against “HBK,” allowing the “Austin Era” to begin in WWF.
Editor’s Opinion:
I’ve never heard of Tyson Fury. What business does he have competing against ‘Stone Cold’ at WrestleMania? This is just weird.
