As was widely expected, WWE's high-profile debut on FOX with Friday Night SmackDown was a massive hit. With The Rock in attendance, the show earned over 3 million viewers.

One of the other key, standout moments from the night was the clash between WWE Superstar - and current Universal Champion - Braun Strowman and British boxing powerhouse, Tyson Fury.

Dubbed the Gypsy King back in his homeland, Fury was at ringside for the SmackDown show and didn't take kindly to Strowman getting in his face. A tangle ensued and before we knew it, a match between the two was set for a few weeks later at WWE Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia.

Fury would win by count-out after flooring Strowman with a hefty punch, before appearing to patch things up with the Monster Among Men on a subsequent episode of SmackDown when he suggested the two of them team up as a tag team.

Fury's stint with WWE was rumored to have pocketed him a cool $15 million.
