Tyson Fury caught up with Behind The Gloves for an interview, and the Heavyweight Boxer opened up on the WWE plans that were unfortunately nixed over the past year.

WWE had a massive plan to have Tyson Fury and Drew McIntyre in a singles match at a pay-per-view in the United Kingdom. Fury stated that he was also scheduled to appear at WrestleMania 36, SummerSlam 2020, and the Royal Rumble pay-per-view.

"I was supposed to go to SummerSlam last year, and I was supposed to go to WrestleMania last year, and I was also supposed to fight Drew McIntyre in a pay-per-view event in the UK. But none of that happened, thanks to COVID."

In addition to wrestling, Tyson Fury noted that he had many other visits that were impacted by the pandemic.

"So COVID's cost me SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, pay-per-view with Drew McIntyre, the [Deontay] Wilder rematch, and the [Anthony] Joshua fight, so thank you, COVID. And I was supposed to meet the President of the United States, Donald Trump. I was supposed to meet the Pope of Rome, among other things, so it's cost me a lot. It's one of the things." H/t Danny Hart of SK Wrestling

Tyson Fury made his in-ring WWE debut at the Crown Jewel show in 2019. The British pugilist beat Braun Strowman via count-out in his first pro wrestling match. The giants were also involved in a SmackDown segment with The B-Team in Manchester in November 2019.

Tyson Fury is expected to fight at least twice in 2021, but he would certainly be open to working with WWE again in the future.
