Kurt Angle Gives Tyson Fury A 10 Out Of 10 For WWE Debut Match Against Braun Strowman

Kurt Angle had high praise for Tyson Fury after his debut match with WWE last year.

The heavyweight boxer, fresh off a win over Otto Wallin in September, wrestled Braun Strowman at the Crown Jewel show last year, emerging victorious. Fury, a fan of WWE, has stated in the past that he would love to come back to wrestle once more, even calling out Brock Lesnar and challenging him to a match at WrestleMania in April.

As for Angle's thoughts on Fury's pro wrestling debut, he thought the unbeaten boxer did pretty well given his limited experience. Angle believed that Fury performed about as well as anyone, especially Fury and WWE, could have reasonably expected.

"I think Tyson did a really good job. I would 1-10 with 10 being the best, I would give him a 10. He got through the match, he wasn't a professional wrestler by any means, but what he was able to do well, he adapted. I don't think he expected more than he gave and I don't think the company expected more than he gave. But he did a really good job and adapted for what he did," Angle told Seconds Out.

it's unlikely that Fury will be competing in a WWE ring anytime in the coming weeks as he currently preparing for his highly-anticipated rematch against Deontay Wilder for the WBC heavyweight world title on February 22.
