WBC Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and WWE champion Drew McIntyre have been hinting at a cross-promotion matchup between them for a brief period.
Meanwhile, Fury is slated to defend his boxing title against Deontay Wilder by the end of this year. That said, a matchup against Drew McIntyre might not be possible now. However, Fury hasn’t ruled out the feasibility. Neither has Drew McIntyre.
Moreover, WWE Moghul Triple H believes that the viable matchup can break several records if brought to fruition.
Triple H is clearly eyeing Tyson Fury vs Drew McIntyre- a blockbuster showdown
Tyson Fury made his WWE debut in Crown Jewel 2019 and took on a strong opponent in Braun Strowman. ‘The Gypsy King’ remained undefeated in WWE too, as he vanquished Strowman in Saudi Arabia.
He has been rumored to reappear in WWE since then. While the speculations are steadily taking a turn, Triple H voiced his opinion on the rumored matchup against McIntyre.
Speaking with PA news agency (as per BoxingScene), the former WWE champion said, “We could make Drew McIntyre vs. Tyson Fury work out, Tyson has got my number – we will make a call.”
Triple H is ready to materialize the fight, and it is Fury’s turn to send a green signal. Being a WWE administrative, Triple H believes that he can sell out massive stadiums with a fascinating event, like Fury vs McIntyre.
Thus, he cites the Briton heavyweight to be a phone-call away from setting it up.
“If you are able to make a super-fight, a mega-fight like a WWE champion Drew McIntyre, like a world champion in Tyson Fury in boxing, I think we sell out massive stadiums, do record global box office business and that is what is all about – so my phone is on,” said Triple H.
However, Fury has got a lot of plans chalked up for his boxing career. Even after the Wilder fight, ‘The Gypsy King’ might have to face several other names on his way to greatness.

Following the Deontay Wilder trilogy, Fury has also been touted to face Anthony Joshua for a heavyweight title unification fight.
Yet, if Fury loses his WBC title against Wilder, he might opt for another run in WWE. That said, it won’t be an easy job for Deontay Wilder to defeat ‘The Gypsy King’. The Bronze Bomber has failed to conquer Fury twice, losing the second fight against him via KO.
No wonder the trilogy fight will bring a lot at stake when the heavyweight gladiators collide.
