I really thought that the Tyson Fury match went a lot longer than it should have. Braun Strowman obviously carried Fury through most of the match, and I just don't think that it should have gone as deep as it did, quite honestly. Fury could not even accomplish a simple collar and elbow lock-up with any degree of conviction and he was certainly not prepared for the big stage.
The most amusing aspect of Fury's performance was how he absolutely no-sold Braun Strowman's finisher, popping up almost immediately. If you thought that Bray Wyatt kicked out very easily of the Curb Stomp, watch how quickly Fury gets up from Strowman's finishing move.
To be quite honest, UFC star Cain Velasquez had a much better showing against Brock Lesnar in the opening match of the night. It was far from good, but it wasn't as bad as Fury was.
